Communication in the household with Kyle
Communication – The most important key to any relationship is communication. We hear it time and again, but what are the techniques, the when's and how does it work in individual relationships, polyamourous, D/s, M/s, long-distance. This will be a class-discussion, because we all have something to offer on how communication works in many different scenarios.

Body Image with Nic & Daddy Kyle
Body Image or Who is that, looking back at you in the mirror?
What do you see when you look at yourself in the mirror? Are you happy with who is staring back? If you could change anything what would it be? and why? As a society we put so much pressure on what we look like, we are either too thin, or fat, too tall or too short. Why is this so important? Is society hard on us, or are we hard on ourselves? After we do change these things, then what? Are we still unhappy, or are we searching out who we have become in this new skin? Come talk to us and others who may be on the same search as you are.
D/s Relationship Vs. A Vanilla one with Lady D
This class discusses D/s relationships and how we go into them still exercising many of our vanilla teachings. Many of our D/s concepts such as poly or FemDom relationships are contrary to the way many of us were raised and what we were taught. This conflict of what we want vs. what we have been taught to believe may become a hindrance if we are not aware of these differences. Understand that we have to realize that our vanilla thoughts may sometimes be in complete opposition to what we are trying to achieve in our D/s relationships. Learning to recognize those differences will help you to change and/or modify your way of thinking so that your thoughts and desires are in sync thereby helping to achieve a more cohesive relationship.
Mono, poly, open, and Room for play relationships discussion.
We're going to open the floor up for this panel discussion and discuss the different types of relationships we all have. This is a chance to ask questions and share what makes your dynamic alike and different. Come share your views and learn about the different dynamics we all have.
There will not be a presenter for this class but it will be lead by CAPE leadership to ensure everyone has time to talk.
WHEN: Saturday February 10th, 2007
TIME: Registration begins at 9:00 AM CST
COST: $20 for CAPE Members , $25 for Non-CAPE Members
