WHAT IS CUDDLE PARTY®? (From CuddleParty.com)

Cuddle Party® is … a workshop!

Though touch is natural, the skills that make it welcome and enjoyable should be learned. The skills of communication, boundary setting, asking for what you want, and saying ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ with clarity and kindness are practiced.

Cuddle Party® is led by trained and certified Cuddle Party® Facilitators. That’s me, Amanda. This workshop is to guide you into those skills gently and easily, in a fun, safe and light hearted, nurturing way. It is to welcome you and create an atmosphere of respect, and remain available for questions and support.

At a Cuddle Party® you gain:

• Clarity and confidence

• Boundary and communication skills

• Comfort, support and encouragement.

• All gender identities, lifestyles and ethnicities are welcome.

The cost of this event is $40 with sliding scale if you are in need just reach out to me with questions. I am also offering 4 early bird tickets for $30 each. The value of this event is well worth it. Learning to communicate is helpful in any relationship. The tickets are non refundable unless you attend the whole welcome circle and decide that this isn’t the event for you. The event is held at my home in a room set up behind my garage detached from the house. There are 2 steps up to get into the main house to use the restroom. I also have cats in my home that I lock up when people are here but they do not go into the cuddle space. This is their home and they welcome you to come and join if you can.
