Everything else — what to bring, the grounds, access, hotels — is in the FAQ. Come as you are.
Come exactly as you are.
Two days of teaching, movement, music and honest company. You step out of your week and try on new ways of being with yourself, with other people, with your own body.
Come curious about relationships, pleasure, your nervous system, creativity — or come because you are tired of performing and want a weekend where you do not have to.
01There is nothing you need to become here.
02No performance to uphold.
03No expectation to fit in.
Two days. Two different experiences.
Friday is one evening, sixty people deep — and it is sold out. Saturday is the whole day and most of the night, and it is still open.

Is this for me?
The four we get asked most. The rest live on the FAQ page.
Can I attend alone?
Is there really no bar?
Will nude people be walking around?
How old do I have to be?
We take this part seriously.
Sober, 18+, and consent-first — not as a disclaimer, as the whole point. We wrote it all down: how we ask, how we hear no, how we look after each other.
“Safety is sexy.”
Made possible together.
Unbound produces the Summit and runs the box office. Heather “Nookie” Claus and her crew.
