📍 Central Utrecht (Kanaalweg)

💋 Ever wished learning how to give & receive pleasure could feel playful, pressure-free, and deeply connective?

At Show ’n Tell, Then Try, we’ll show you how to uplevel your intimate skills and body confidence with live demos, honest convos, and hands-on guided practice time. This is a rare opportunity to ask those “I’ve always wondered…” questions — and actually try things out in a supportive space. Think: practical techniques, permission to be curious, and lots of chances to feel turned on and empowered. 🌹

⚠️ This is an advanced-level experience with explicit demos and optional partnered practice.
⚠️ To attend, you must have previously joined a red-level play event by Wilrieke or Reid. We’ll check — no exceptions.

📌This is a separate event from Sex Toys Explained that takes place on the evening of October 11. You need separate tickets for both events.

✨ What’s the vibe?

This is a clothes-optional, two-day, immersive experience in pleasure, presence, and play — all grounded in deep consent and trauma-awareness. We blend lecture, live demos, partner/solo practices, and time for questions & integration. You’ll see real bodies, real touch, real moments — and get support in bringing it into your own pleasure life.

🌈 Open to all genders, orientations, bodies & relationship styles. Practice solo, with a partner, or find someone to explore with on-site (no guarantees, though — we support but don’t matchmake!).

🛠️ What You’ll Learn:

✔️ Tools to track arousal, stay present & read bodies
✔️ Sensual touch, oral techniques, and pleasure mapping
✔️ Slow & mindful activation of pelvic pleasure pathways
✔️ Prostate play, strap-on confidence, and more
✔️ How to play together without pressure
✔️ Tips for turning “oops” moments into connection

Every demo is followed by optional Try Time — guided, supported, or simply witnessed.

💬 Who is this for?

This weekend is for explorers ready to deepen into embodied, consensual sexuality and joy. Whether you’re a couple wanting to reconnect or a solo adventurer eager to practice in a safe, respectful container — this is for you.

Come curious. Leave radiant. 🧠❤️🔥

📌 Elaborate schedule:

What You’ll Learn and Experience (All timings are estimates)

DAY 1 — MORNING SESSION (Clothed, 11:00–14:00)

We’ll start slow and build a connection through gentle touch, breathwork, and pelvic floor activation exercises. You’ll learn how pleasure and arousal move through the body — and how to work with that arousal to create more fun, more joy, more connection, and turn-on!

• How to “move at the speed of pleasure” and listen to your own body and the body of your partner.
• Reid’s “Push, Pull, Squeeze” approach to activating the pelvic floor & vagus nerve so you and your partners can drop deeper into our bodies and experience more pleasure!
• Approaches to enhance communication and consent as we embark on our journey of sexploration
• Tools for feeling more connected and present with yourself and your partner, and how to track your yeses, your nos, and when either of you needs to slow down or change your minds

You’ll have space to watch demos, ask questions, and try sensual things with your partner (if you choose) as we ease into our 2 days together.

BREAK (14:00–15:00)

Bring your own lunch or share a potluck-style meal. This is a time to nourish yourself, hydrate, rest, reset, and connect with others.

DAY 1 — AFTERNOON (Clothing Optional, 15:00–18:00)

This is the “Show ’N Tell” and “Then Try” part! Reid, Wilrieke, and their demo partners will offer live, explicit demonstrations of pleasure techniques. You’ll see real bodies, real communication, and real fun — and yes, you can ask questions as we go.

After each demo, the group will have hands-on practice time. Reid, Wilrieke, and their team will be there to support, coach, and guide if you ask for help. You can also choose to watch, take notes, or practice solo. Voyeurism is participation, and everything is optional.

DAY 2 — MORNING (Clothing Optional, 11:00–14:00)

Day 2’s morning session will begin with a group check-in on how Day 1 went and setting intentions for what you’d like to see, learn, try. After that, we will pick up where we left off, continuing with more Show ‘N Tell, LIVE demos and then more Try time.

BREAK (14:00–15:00)

Same as Day 1.

DAY 2 — AFTERNOON (Clothing Optional, 15:00–18:00)

Day 2’s afternoon session features more demos and more opportunities to practice with supervised support.

🌈 Possible Demo Topics May Include:

• Gentle and advanced oral sex for all bodies
• Vulva/vagina and penis pleasure techniques (hands, mouths, toys)
• Prostate and anal play with care and confidence
• Touch that turns into connection, not pressure
• Positions, ergonomics, and tools that make pleasure easier on your body
• How to celebrate softness, slow build-ups, and “oops!” moments
• Strap-on play—Not just pegging, mind you!

Participants are welcome to request demos — Think about what you want to learn and find your words! We can’t promise we’ll get to every request, but we want to hear from you!

❤️ What You’ll Walk Away With From Our Two Days Together:

• Better skills = better sex
• Stronger trust and teamwork with your partner(s)
• Less shame, more fun
• Increased confidence in your body and your choices
• The tools to keep exploring together at home

FOR WHO IS THIS EVENT?

This event welcomes folks from all walks of life. We are LGBTQIIA+ informed (Wilrieke and most of their team identify as such), slut-friendly, trauma-informed, and non-monogamy informed. White folks are overrepresented in our team and life experiences are colored through that lens. We do come from different social backgrounds and have different life experiences when it comes to health, wealth, neurodiversity, gender, sexual orientation, etc.

We welcome people with specific needs as much as able-bodied folks. Feel free to reach out if you have specific needs that you wish to share with us.

You can attend with 1 or 2 partners, or come solo and meet a practice partner there. We’ll support that process, but we don’t promise you’ll be paired up. Watching or practicing solo is always welcome. Consent and negotiation are required at every step. Your body, your pace, your choice.
