Upcoming classes

boundaries + consent education based in connection + creativity

Here’s what you should know about classes at @consent.wizardry:

As soon as you register for a class, you’ll receive an email with everything you need to attend. Registration usually includes access to the recording of the class so you can rewatch it later.

Recordings are not available for sale after the class has begun; you only get them if you sign up for class in advance (unless otherwise specified). I do have some recorded classes available on their own!

$25.00

My approach is integrative, somatic, beyond binary yes and no, trauma-informed, anti-carceral, and anti-cancellation.

The Boundaries + Consent Workbook is a good companion to any class.

Hi, I’m Mia. I’m an author, multi-media artist, and an intimacy coordinator for TV, film, and theater. It’s my mission to make consent education as digestible and widely available as possible so you can identify your desires, needs, and boundalries and authentically express them to others in your own unique voice. Relationships are my life’s work.


APRIL 2-WEEK

Consent + DNVC: Navigating Rupture and Repair

with Mia + Meenadchi

VIRTUAL: Mondays, April 13 + 20, 5-7pm PT / 8-10pm ET. Recordings are included with registration in advance; they will not be for sale after the fact.

Hi! We’re Meenadchi and Mia and we’ve been friends and colleagues for over five years now. We’ve taught together in the past, but our work has changed a lot in the last few years as we’ve changed, so we wanted to put together an offering for anyone interested in consent + Decolonized Nonviolent Communication (DNVC) updated for the times we’re in now.

April 2-day

self-advocacy for the self-employed

with Mia

VIRTUAL: Tuesdays, April 14 + 21, 10am-noon PT / 1-3pm ET. Students who sign up in advance will receive recordings of our live classes in case you can’t attend during class time. These recordings will not be available after class has passed.

Struggling to navigate boundaries, offers, and rates as a self-employed person? This class will help you navigate:

  • setting and negotiating your rates

  • advocating for yourself when your rates change

  • pricing, presenting, and marketing your offerings

  • trading/bartering for services or work without the clear boundaries of money

  • what to consider when working for free

  • only offering what’s actually within your capacity, setting a container period, asking for and providing necessary information, and setting clear agreements

  • when and how to exit commitments you made

This class is a great fit for:

  • artists, designers, freelancers, consultants, educators, therapists, SWers, and all kinds of practitioners

  • performers, musicians, painters, ceramicists, directors, producers, and other artists

May 3-month

consent educator training + Teaching Artist Business Incubator Program

CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT AND CREATIVE AND BUSINESS SUPPORT FOR ARTISTS, CONSULTANTS, FREELANCERS, + EDUCATORS

with Mia + guest teachers

This VIRTUAL program comes in two options:

  • Open to all: Consent Educator Training, Mondays May 4 - June 8, 10am-noon PT / 1-3pm ET. The Consent Educator Training includes Meenadchi’s Decolonizing Nonviolent Communication class and Brooks Herr’s class on Grief.

  • By application only: Full Teaching Artist Program, which includes Consent Educator Training, my “Is this right?” course, a Business Support course, and three one-on-one sessions with me. Mondays from may 4-18, then Mondays and Wednesdays May 20-July 6, 10am-noon PT / 1-3pm ET. For me, polyamory is a commitment to honesty, both to myself and others. It’s a commitment to self-growth through relationships, to understanding myself, my needs, my desires, my boundaries, and learning to express them in increasingly authentic and clear ways.

Do you feel like you do too many things? Are you a jack of all trades, master of none? You think the things you do might all be related, but you’re struggling to connect the dots? Have you reached the limits of other forms of support (such as talk therapy), either as a practitioner or a client, and do you want practical tools, skills, vocab, and exercises for yourself and your clients?

This program will help you bring consent work into your art and build a teaching practice and business that sustains your artwork. You will learn tools to access your creativity, work through perfectionism, mythbust the idea that making money off your work makes you a baaaaaaad evil Capitalist, and find or reconnect with your voice. You will embody consent and feel your boundaries in subtler and deeper ways, and you’ll be able to support others in doing the same. You’ll receive business support to tackle people pleasing and perfectionism, reckon with your inner critic, build a brand manual and successful social media presence, market yourself while prioritizing your self expression, and prevent burnout.

May 5-week

FROM “IS THIS RIGHT?” TO “DO I LIKE IT?”

with Mia

VIRTUAL: Wednesdays May 20-June 17th, 10am-noon PT / 1-3pm ET.‍ ‍Recordings are included with registration in advance; they will not be for sale after the fact. Please note: Participation is strongly requested; this is not a course to attend via recording alone.

This is a personal, professional, and creative development program for artists of all kinds: musicians, creatives, writers, dancers, photographers, choreographers, directors, designers. It’s for people looking to deepen or return to their creative practice and for those looking to embark on one for the first time.

June 3-week

Boundaries + Consent for People Pleasers

with Mia

VIRTUAL: Two class times - Tuesdays and Thursdays, June 2-16, 10am-noon / 1pm-3pm ET and 5–7 PT / 8–10pm ET. Class recordings will be available to those who register for the full program in advance.

Are you giving past your capacity and then resenting other people for it? Are you struggling to feel your boundaries? Do you freeze when it’s time to say “no”?

If you frequently find yourself in this state of people pleasing, you’re likely concerning yourself more with how you’re being perceived than how you feel. You may be estranged from your desires, not feel safe in your own mind or body, and therefore be disconnected from your agency and creativity.

This is a great class for artists, self-employed people, people in helping professions, and organizers activists. You’ll learn practical tools and skills to identify and express your boundaries, needs, and desires.

This course will give you practice tools to access your confidence, ask for what you want, say no, take rejection with gratitude, advocate for yourself, harness stress so you can propel yourself to act, and apply these skills outward through examples from TV and film.
