More about Erotic Humiliation

Erotic humiliation is a complex and varied fetish that offers kinksters lots of options for embarrassing, degrading, or humiliating play.

Humiliation isn’t just about smeared mascara and groveling under boots, it’s also about exploring vulnerability, trust, control, and sacrifice through absurdity, amusement, and consensual cruelty.

Erotic humiliation is a state of mind that can be cultivated through a huge variety of types of activities. Not only will the weekend include an in-depth explanation of the overall mechanics of psychological play, but we’ll also go into detail about specific types of scene and how to make them work for you, including, but not limited to:

Dehumanization, Sissification, Foot Fetish, Nudity, Tease and Denial, Enforced Chastity, Verbal Humiliation, Financial Domination, Watersports and Toilet Play, Domestic Service, Punishment and Discipline, Slut-shaming, Public Humiliation, and so much more.

We’ll spend time exploring your interests, goals, and motivations to get to the heart of creating the experiences you’re craving.

Have more questions? Here’s more answers!

What is the location of this retreat?

The first A Deeper Shade of Red: Weekend Intensive will be held in Los Angeles, California at a hotel near LAX. The exact location will be given to registered attendees.

Who is this for? Can anyone sign up?

A Deeper Shade of Red: Weekend Intensive is a highly curated event to ensure the best experience for everyone. The first step is to fill out this short form to give Kali a sense of your compatibility. If Kali believes you’re a good match for A Deeper Shade of Red, she’ll schedule a short video conference interview with you to further ensure you’re a good fit before being sent the registration link.

Dominants, submissives, and switches of all experience levels are all welcome. Kali speaks from her perspective as a dominant, but she also shares stories and insights from the submissive perspective.

The weekend has been designed to be useful for both lifestyle and professional players at any experience level, and the content will be adapted to fit the needs of those attending.

Do I need to have a partner?

Nope. You’re welcome to come solo, with a partner or with a friend. The experience is mostly focused on understanding your own desires. If you come with a partner, you can also look at the context of your relationship, but it’s not necessary.

What’s the weekend like?

A fun deep-dive into understanding erotic humiliation play and your own desires! The three days are full of demonstrations, group discussion, role-play, and more. We take breaks often to keep you moving; you’ll be surprised at how fast the time goes.

Is it “humiliating” to attend?

Definitely not. This is not a FemDom session with Princess Kali. Of course it’s a sexy topic, but it’s a learning environment rather than an overtly erotic one. There are some fun demonstrations with consensual participants, and if you attend with a partner, there are opportunities to try out what you’re learning.

What will we talk about?

While there’s a great deal of foundational information being shared, the content is tailored to the attendees. We focus on understanding the psychology of erotic humiliation in general, as well as how to explore your specific interests.

What if my interests are weird and I don’t want to talk about them in front of people?

First of all, in an environment like this your interests AREN’T weird! Secondly, you don’t have to share anything you don’t want to. Kali is skilled at creating an accepting, non-judgmental energy and she has some great ice-breakers planned that will help you get comfortable before jumping into the personal stuff.

What if I’ve already attended your shorter humiliation classes?

The 90-minute or 2-hour classes Kali teaches at conferences and for private spaces don’t even scratch the surface of the depth and breadth of topics under the psychological-torment umbrella. In the short format, there is little time for Kali to answer questions or share any kind of personalized info. During a 3-day intensive, we’ll have significantly more time to get to the kernel of what YOU need to have happy, healthy, humiliation experiences.

What should I wear? Should I bring anything?

The weekend is educational, so there is no need to dress in fetish fashion. Wear comfortable clothing and shoes. Feel free to bring any special snacks or items you need to be comfortable. If you plan on attending the optional fetish party on Saturday night, feel free to bring something special to wear or any specific toys you might need for play.

Can I buy walk up tickets?

No, there is very limited space and tickets are only available for purchase in advance.

Will you be doing this intensive again?

I’m not sure. Don’t put it off, seize the day!

What will I get out of this?

Excellent question! This is definitely a case for the old saying, “You’ll get out what you put in.” If you fully participate– approach the discussions with openness, and bring your most curious self to A Deeper Shade of Red: Weekend Intensive — you can make dramatic growth in your personal and/or professional life. Everyone benefits differently, but regardless, you will walk away with practical, innovative, and fun techniques to harness your own desires and create more authentic kink play.

Are you ready for a once-in-a-lifetime experience?

A Deeper Shade of Red: Weekend Intensive is happening in July 2020. Registration opens soon.

Really fun experience that reveals the bigger components at play with humiliation – very revelatory!
