Workshops + Trainings
Each month, The Dress Rehearsal offers a virtual workshop to support you on your journey to a thriving, shame-free, and confident sex life.
Maybe you never got sex ed. Maybe the sex ed you got was shame-based and fact-free. Maybe it’s been a while and you are a life-long learner! Whatever the case, I’ve got you.
Next Up…
To Queer: to take a tradition or practice and get creative with it in ways that match your expansive, authentic self.🌈❄️
Just as there isn’t one way to be queer, there isn’t one way to show up this time of year. In this virtual workshop, you’ll explore ways to queer it!
Sign up for individual workshops or all three!

Do you somehow turn into the 16 year-old version of yourself when you enter your biological family’s home for the holidays?
Do you find yourself on New Year’s day drained of energy instead of rested?
Do you prioritize everyone else’s needs during the holidays, sacrificing your wants, desires, and even identity in the process?
Then this workshop is for you.
In this 2 hour virtual workshop we will develop skills to identify and communicate boundaries that work for you, all while building approaches for self-compassion that will serve you this holiday season.

By January 1st, most of us end up burnt out like a holiday lightbulb. We’ve spent the season moving from one festive sweater to another, holiday party to holiday party, so busy we didn’t have time or space for all the things that bring us pleasure and rest.
Allow this virtual workshop to support you in finding the pleasure this December--from uninterrupted time reading by the fire to kissing under the mistletoe (to taking the dog for a walk for some GD peace and quiet).
We'll explore ways to really tune into the sensual this season, make a plan to find pleasure even when time is short, and troubleshoot any pleasure grinches that get in the way.
