This event is designed for anyone in the Poly or Kink Community that is looking to learn how to be a better partner!
A 3-hour workshop for polyamory and kink community members who want better connection skills.
What You’ll Learn About . . .
Safety first: spotting red flags and protecting yourself
Being seen and heard: how specific communication skills will significantly increase your ability to be seen and heard
Boundaries that work: how to set and hold them with clarity and kindness
Anger & stress: the 11 styles of anger expression and how to communicate in both good times and hard moments
Self-Confidence: recognizing when you need to have difficult conversations that matter to build your relationships stronger

You’ve got the foundation, now it’s time to turn words into heat.
This isn’t theory, it’s practice you’ll use the same day.
If you’ve ever wished you could say what you want, ask for what you need, or spark heat with just your words, this class is for you.
This 3-hour workshop takes you deeper, giving you the skills to:
What to say when things are good (and not good): appreciation language and repair scripts that strengthen intimacy
Conflict and repair: how to de-escalate, own mistakes, and rebuild closeness after tension
Talking about sex: how to share desires, fantasies, and boundaries without shame
Dirty talk with confidence: finding your style, reading your partner, and building arousal through words
Why This Matters
Because words shape connection. The right words can make your partner feel safe, valued, and turned on. This class gives you the confidence to talk about sex, handle conflict, and create intimacy that lasts.
Time: 12:55 PM to 4 PM
Location: The All Good Things Center in Escondido
Cost: Afternoon Only - $30 / Both Sessions - $50

This discussion will be led by Anitalyn (like Anita and Lyn put together in one word), a licensed clinical social worker with more than 20 years of experience helping people become the best version of themselves. She is a psychotherapist specializing in sex therapy, polyamory, kink, and other alternative lifestyles. She has been part of the San Diego kink and poly communities (where she is known as Renee) for more than ten years. If you know her as Renee, call her that!
Her husband, Dan, will co-host the event. He is best known for his role as a Shibari instructor for All Tied Up San Diego and alongside his wife, they have navigated many a difficult conversation in the Kink, Poly, and ENM world.

Welcome!

A structured, instructor-led Kink, BDSM, Ethical Non-monogamy/Polyamory education center designed to help curious beginners and developing practitioners learn how to engage safely, confidently, and with clear communication.
We prioritize consent, progress, and emotional safety over performance or unstructured events, creating an environment where individuals and couples can explore without pressure or confusion.
At our core, we exist to guide people from curiosity to competence in a way that makes them feel safe, supported, and capable every step of the way.
Dan and Renee bring more than a decade of combined experience in Shibari, kink, and relationship dynamics, blending technical instruction with a deep understanding of communication, consent, and emotional safety.
Renee is a licensed psychotherapist who works with those looking for insight into connection, trust, and partner dynamics.
Dan is known for his structured, step-by-step teaching style that helps students build real skill and confidence.
Together, they create a learning environment that is clear, supportive, and grounded, designed to help you feel safe, capable, and fully present as you explore yourself and the opportunities ahead.
No, and yes.
Both organizations are run by Dan and Renee, but they are separate organizations with different missions and purposes.
All Good Things Center focuses on ENM/Polyamory, Kink and BDSM lifestyle relationships.
All Tied Up San Diego is San Diego's largest and longest-running Shibari Instructional group, offering a structured instructional program focused on rope-based movement, communication, and partner coordination. ATUSD's training emphasizes safety, progression, and supervised skill development in a controlled environment.
