A Cuddle Party is a fun and powerful way to build communication skills, boundaries, and confidence in a safe, playful, nurturing setting as they cuddle. A Cuddle Party looks like a bunch of adults cuddling in pajamas and that's pretty much what it is. However, the skills used to practice this workshop go far deeper than that. It is important to mention that a Cuddle Party is strictly a non-sexual event. While it is an excellent place for people to give and receive affection, communicate, and build a since of community it is a non-sexual connection. This is also a sober event; participants are not allowed to consume drugs or alcohol during the event, and will be denied entry if substance abuse is suspected.

As people enter and sign in they will see an open space where I will have laid out a collection of blankets and pillows in a big circle. Participants will be free to have a light snack, change into sweats or pajamas, or just take a seat and form a big circle. I will introduce myself and begin to describe to the group my intention and set the rules for a safe and enjoyable experience. Every Cuddle Party begins with a Welcome Circle that fully explains the rules for a Cuddle Party and how to participate. Everyone will be allowed to introduce themselves, participate in ice breakers, and ask questions. The Welcome Circle lasts around 45 minutes followed by about 2 hours of free-style cuddling a puppy pile and the closing circle. Participants will then be free to mingle or ask questions, talk and debrief before leaving the space. How long does it last? About 3 hours. What happens next?
