Sensation Play Class by Crystal Waves
June 24th 7:00pm - 9:00pm ∙ Columbus, OH
Sensation Play Class by Crystal Waves
The word sensation is defined as a widespread reaction of interest or excitement. While pain is often the first sensation associated with kink, there are so many others that help envelop us into scene space. In this class we will cover how to create a unique scene that engages (or deprives) all 5 of the senses to drop the bottom into a personalized headspace. Every player in the kink world has a different set of tastes and this class is perfect for all folks who aren’t driven solely by pain. We will explore using wax and ice as temperature play, wearing noise canceling headphones to silence the room, and so many other techniques to help you find what suits you best. There will be a demonstration on how to include a variety of play mediums and styles when curating a scene to a specific person.
Educator Crystal Waves
Crystal Waves (They/She) is a dominant-leaning switch who has been involved in kink for over well over a decade. They spent 4 years as a Pro-Dom working in the Philadelphia area before retiring to enjoy kink on a more personal level. As a pro they specialized primarily in sensory, ice, and impact play, but now they spend more time as a chain rigger and electric top. They got involved in the Columbus Community 6 years ago and have since taught many classes at clubs and private events including Kink 101, Impact play, Bruises on a Budget, and the Sensation of Kink.

DRESS CODE
When it comes to attire, anything goes at Wicked Eden, we want you to feel comfortable and in the mood to have an adventure! Wicked Eden is a place where you can wear as much or as little as you desire. We want you to always feel comfortable expressing yourself in whatever ways you desire.

We LOVE volunteers! Join our team of community volunteers, and you will find new friends, a support system and a tight knit center of empowerment. Once you have obtained membership as above, please check out the volunteering section of The Autonomy Project website.
By volunteering with us you will have the opportunity to make a meaningful impact on people’s lives, but you will also get perks such as discounted or free access to our events and classes, and most importantly, collaborative input in what we do here. Your ideas are important to us, and as a volunteer, we want you to feel like you’re part of our community: one that celebrates who you are and supports your journey.
HIGH POTENTIAL, NO PRESSURES
Our community thrives in a space where countless delightful interactions could happen, but none are obligated to occur. Think of it as “high possibility, low expectations.” Outside of our general requirements of respect, you are under no obligation to interact with anyone in any particular way. This makes our space ideal for new faces and seasoned community members alike.
HIGH POTENTIAL, NO PRESSURES
Our events aren’t the product of one person hosting a party for pay; they’re the result of a community coming together and creating something new. Everyone who attends is expected to co-create: money, time, energy, enthusiasm, work, intention, example, concern and/or awareness. Have ideas, games, art, music to share? Want to bring them to life with us?
A FOUNDATION OF TRUST
Our gatherings are magical because of trust. We fiercely protect each member’s privacy, encourage honest risk communication, and take diligent care of our shared environments. It’s our collective respect and integrity that fortify this safe space.
CLEAR AND PRESENT CONSENT
Upholding consent goes beyond preventing harm; it’s about affirming everyone’s freedom to fully and joyfully agree to their interactions. It’s through this affirmation that our spaces thrive with genuine, unreserved participation.
INCLUSION AND DIVERSITY
We’re committed to inclusivity. Our community is a tapestry of individuals from diverse racial, ethnic, and social backgrounds, including all gender identities and expressions. We encourage everyone to engage with empathy and curiosity, always asking rather than assuming someone’s identity or preferences.
Our space is and always will be wheelchair accessible, with multiple spaces for varying sensory needs.
