Body Play Ground

In their development of BodyPlay over the last years, Frank & Sheila have worked out approaches to physical play, which are in many regards unique. The two experienced workshop leaders blend elements of BDSM, PlayFighting and Martial Arts – and discuss fundamental philosophical concepts of lust and corporeality in intense and witty ways.

For this year's Xplore, Frank & Sheila present a potpourri of their most popular workshop-techniques to access often unknown spheres of lust. BodyPlay as mindful full-body-contact-sensuality, allows us to experience our bodies in a powerful and vibrant way. These physical confrontations may compare to a sensual pillowfight or the playful fighting between puppies – but it may as well convey the calm power and security of a tight embrace. Communication, safety and consensuality are key topics.
