May 17 @ 9:00 am – 5:00 pm

Power exchange isn’t just about protocol or posture — it’s about transformation. The Authority Transfer All-Day Workshop brings together two powerhouse couples, Dan & dawn and Kevin & Katie, for a full day of immersive education and candid conversation around long-term, intentional power exchange.

Start the day by exploring how power exchange can function as a tool for self-improvement — supporting personal growth, emotional resilience, and deep embodiment. Then, get up and move with hands-on techniques for crafting connection through erotic dominant energy, where presence and physicality create trance, arousal, and power without relying on toys or impact. Finally, close the day with real talk: no scripts, no sugarcoating. Ask the hard questions about what it takes to sustain and thrive in Authority Transfer over years or even decades.

Whether you’re just beginning or deep in the lifestyle, this workshop is your chance to learn from seasoned, passionate practitioners who walk the walk — with honesty, humor, and heart.

Schedule:

9:00am – Doors Open

10:00am – Power Exchange as a Self Improvement Modality with Dan & Dawn

Power exchange dynamics can be more than erotic or relational—they can be consciously harnessed for growth, healing, and transformation. This class explores how consensual power exchange structures can function as powerful tools for self-improvement. We’ll examine intention-setting, ritual design, accountability, and identity through a growth-oriented lens. You’ll gain practical frameworks for using power exchange to support emotional resilience, discipline, embodiment, and personal evolution.

12:00pm – Lunch

Lunch will be provided for all attendees.

1:00pm – Lead Me, Move Me: Crafting Connection Through Erotic Dominant Energy with Kevin & Katie

Discover how to infuse your scenes with erotic power exchange through movement, presence, and connection – without relying on traditional BDSM elements. In this dynamic class, Kevin and Katie will guide you through the subtle yet intense techniques that bring Dominant/submissive dynamics to life.

From body manipulation and objectification to dance-like flow that induces trance and subspace, you’ll learn how to build and maintain energy through every touch, glance, and gesture. Whether you’re new to power exchange or looking to refine advanced techniques, this class offers insights that range from accessible basics to intricate practices that take years to master.

Expect demonstrations, hands-on exploration, and plenty of heat. Bring water and get ready to move – because the most electrifying power play doesn’t need a whip to leave you breathless.

3:00pm – Break

3:15pm – Ask Us the Hard Shit: Real Talk on Surviving and Thriving in Authority Transfer with Dan & dawn and Kevin & Katie

With a combined over 40 years of Authority Transfer experience, Kevin and Katie and Dan and dawn bring not just hard-won wisdom, but also the joy, intimacy, and passion that keep power exchange relationships thriving long-term. Kevin and Katie, as International Power Exchange 2017 titleholders, respected educators, and community leaders, they’ve seen a lot—and they’re ready to share openly, honestly, and with heart. And Dan and dawn, GLLA 2011 Master/slave title holders, authors of multiple books, and host of the longest running kink podcast on the ‘net, have lived in and around power exchange publicly for these past two decades and bring a wealth of varied experience.

This isn’t a 101 class. There’s no script – just bring your toughest questions! If you struggle to balance life’s challenges with the magnetic pull of power exchange, these two couples will give you the real talk you need.

But it’s not just about surviving—it’s about thriving.
