EMPOWERING MEN TO FIND THE COURAGE TO SURRENDER
EMPOWERING WOMEN TO EMBRACE THEIR DIVINE FEMININE
Submission is not about weakness or giving up. Showing willingness and vulnerability by exploring and owning our shadows enables inner strength and grounds us in wholeness. Owning our authority and desire shows us who we really are.
Guided by experienced Dommes who will shape our week together, we invite you on a journey into consensual power exchange, exploring the darker corners of your consciousness, to move towards a space where you can relax and own your true nature.
You are also on holiday so afternoons will be free for swimming, sunbathing or exploring beautiful places. We will eat most meals together.

A glimpse of our Divine Dommes ...
A central part of our journey is weaving D/s or conscious kink into our lives in a healthy and balanced way. Being open to the erotic energy this can create around our kinks and preferences without shame can be a great healer. Being willing to recognise the effects of particular incidents from our formative years helps us face and integrate our shadows.
We will be invited to share about ourselves, with discussion around our expectations, experiences and hopes.
We will establish consent, boundaries, limits and safe words.
Building trust and acknowledging resistance are at the heart of our exercises.
Group Sessions on offer
Power exchange based relationships - dynamics, structures, templates and protocols.
FLR / Domme techniques such as ritual, ceremony, protocol, voice commands, hand signals, assertiveness, objectification, teaching and enforcing subs positions, forms of discipline.
A creative writing session where you can envisage an ideal scenario or create an e-hypno script.
The differences between submission and service.
Aftercare. Subspace can feel incredibly therapeutic and has many psychological benefits. But because this meditative state can be highly emotional we need to take post-play into consideration, allowing time to "come down" from the scene.
The concept of the Divine Feminine - what FLR relationships can offer.
There will be opportunities for disciplinary / CP sessions and naked service.
The role of Hypno in control - we intend to offer an e-Hypno taster to set the tone in advance of the retreat.
The importance of challenging and providing alternatives to assumptions around patriarchal stereotypes in daily inter-personal relationships, wider social change and the ripple effect this can create.
Comparing and contrasting different approaches - ie Lifestyle v Play, varieties of conscious kink, the role of Tantra in opening up our hearts to new possibilities.
We will also invite your ideas for the final ‘open space’ day where we adopt a more freeform approach. You’ll have chance to create subjects and themes for scenes, while respecting the boundaries of the Dommes.
We will aim to create a safe, courageous, exciting space, where we are able to share learning from our collective experiences as they unfold. We have a sex coach in the group, versed across the erotic realms for emotional and mentoring support.
Private sessions are also available.
Take Note!
The course will be led by four experienced Dommes, each presenting different aspects of BDSM / conscious kink / tantra / D/s to be in the role as teachers.
Kink offers a wide range of healing and erotic possibilities which can involve role play, fun, verbal commands, impact play, dominance and submission, control, fantasy and erotic self expression.
An awareness of consent (and consensual non-consent) is vital. Kink is all about offering and taking power in choice. Since consent is the cornerstone of these practices, it provides an opportunity to ensure that the person surrendering control and the person in charge stay within their agreed boundaries.
This course welcomes both emergent and experienced Dommes and subs. This event will not be gender balanced. Couples welcome.

The Location
The island of Paros is easily accessible via Athens or other neighbouring island airports and is renowned for its calm waters, excellent beaches and lively towns and villages. It encompasses traditional Greek culture and tourism in a harmonious way.
The daytime programme will be held at Milos House, located on a hill five minutes drive from the south coast and the small fishing port of Alyki, where overnight accommodation will be arranged.
Access to the house is through a tiny hamlet and the final ascent is pretty steep and requires a car (some car sharing may be possible). The house and Alyki are both a 15 minute drive from the island port of Paroikia. The local village has plenty of excellent traditional tavernas and bars, a couple of well stocked super markets, an ATM and a good bakery.
The house is spacious, flooded with natural sunlight and set in a beautiful west facing garden which has eating and sitting areas to take advantage of the views and sunsets.
Breakfast and lunch will be provided and for evening meals there will be a combination of eating in and going out to Alyki or Paroikia.
There are two terraces upstairs for sunning and sunset viewing (some covered) and downstairs with access via the kitchen, and an additional breakfast area with spectacular views inland over Kamari village and the south coast. The garden has two hammocks.

A submissive's Prayer
Allow me the strength to answer questions I can't fathom
Allow me the spirit to know Her needs
Allow me the kindness to choke back retorts
Allow me the serenity to serve Her in peace
Allow me the love to show Her myself
Allow me the tenderness to comfort Her
Allow me the light to show us the way
Allow me the wisdom to be an asset to Her
Let me be able to show Her each day my love of service to Her
Let me open myself up to completely belong to Her
Let my eyes show Her the same respect, rather I sit at Her side, or kneel at Her feet
Let me learn to please Her, beyond myself
Grant me the power to give myself to Her completely
Give me the strength to please us both
Permit me to love myself, in loving Her
Allow me the peace of serving Her
For it is my greatest wish, my highest power to make Her life complete, as She makes mine
