Can we just be real about the very real uncertainty and vulnerability that comes with holding space for someone else?! This is a class for anyone feeling unsure, anxious, or like they just keep fumbling their way through topping and not finding their flow- let’s build more confidence by exploring ideas and trying tools and tips to tap into more ease and fun in ways that feel simple and true to you
## This session will cover:
- Ways to begin and ways to end: building rituals and soft structures to hold yourself and your scenes
- Finding and playing with your unique sense of presence, authority and top space in ways that feel good and authentic to you
- What to do when your mind goes blank, anxiety kicks in, or you forget what comes next
- Shifting out of the default – ideas to expand your range if you get stuck doing the same thing or keep reverting to your comfort zone (but need more options!)
- Is it ok? Is it safe? What if I fuck up!? Experimenting with confident ways to check in (and what to do when things aren’t going to plan)
- Exercises to explore your pleasure – What do you want? What do you enjoy? Balancing your wants and needs as a top if you often find yourself oriented towards your partners wants and needs.
