While we seek pleasure, in whatever form that appears to us, we will not sacrifice love for ourselves and for others in the pursuit of pleasure. We strive to be present, respectful and compassionate, remembering that love includes accountability, care and courage. All other boundaries are the children of this core value.

We carefully consider our safety and the safety of others. We accept that risk is inherent in life and play, and we take responsibility to educate ourselves and communicate clearly about personal risks such as STIs, health concerns, or mental wellness. We agree to actively check in with play partners, especially when exploring emotional edges or vulnerable scenes. We are blessed to have a great many rope suspension points at Serenity, and agree to only suspend once we have received in-person tuition.

Pleasure, pain, kink, orgasm, power, love, breathwork, prayer...all of these can induce altered states of consciousness. We enter into these states mindfully and are conscious of the use of substances which may further alter our state of consciousness (e.g. cacao). We agree not to bring or arrive having used intoxicating substances such as alcohol, poppers or illegal drugs.

The model of consent recommended in this space is the Wheel of Consent. We encourage individualised discussions of boundaries, limits and desires before embarking on a pleasure journey. By entering this space, you are consenting to witnessing others pleasure journeys, nudity and emotions. When in the changing area, we give space to people who are actively changing. We respect verbal and non-verbal signals, and always seek active, ongoing consent. We agree to bring any concerns around consent to the attention of the team and understand that community safety depends on reporting; bringing concerns forward is an act of care.

We are a welcoming and inclusive community at Serenity; respect is the foundation of this. We agree that disrespectful behaviour will not be tolerated.

We will:

• Obtain authentic consent before touching others.

• Be mindful of others' comfort and space both in the play area and in the social area.

• Never interrupt play. Once play has begun, that pleasure bubble is sealed and you will not be able to join in. If you are concerned about someone's play, alert the team.

• Wait until aftercare is complete before approaching someone for conversation. If you aren’t sure, it is ok to politely check. 

• Avoid picking up or moving other people's toys or toy-bags. Kink toys can be very expensive, sentimental and dangerous if handled incorrectly. If there are unused toys in your way, alert a member of the team. Be mindful of where you place your own toys & toy-bag - avoiding walkways, fire escapes and high-use furniture. 

• Uphold the values of an inclusive community; 

  • We are respectful of disability, gender, sexual orientation, relationship style, race and nationality.

  • We use inclusive and affirmative language and respect each other's identities.

  • If you are disabled, neurodivergent or have an additional need, we welcome a chat on how we can help you to enjoy the event as fully as possible. 

  • We require all attendees to respect that many members of our community do not conform to gender, relationship & sexual norms. 

Social Area:

Our social area is a busy and thriving space with lots of food, drink and chatting! We agree to:

• Help keep the space tidy. We remove shoes, place used cups and glasses back in the kitchen, put rubbish in the bin, etc.

• Respect hygiene: We allow nudity at Serenity, however, we ensure bare bottoms have a towel or blanket under them before making contact with a seat.

• Be mindful of the needs of others: if you are able, it is kind & compassionate to offer up seating to those who are coming out of the play space for aftercare. 

Play Area:

Serenity is a space welcoming of a wide variety of types of play, including vulnerable and intimate play. Please respect the vibe of the play space! We agree to:

• Keep social noise and chatter to a minimum 

• Only bring covered cups & water bottles into the play area

• Be mindful of how much equipment/space you are using, ask for help if you do not know how to use something, if you wish to move furniture, ask for help and do not drag it. 

• Pack away kit, put bags away and clean up after play is complete. 

• Be mindful if your play might cause significant disruption to others (e.g loud, continuous screaming). Play does not have to be quiet, just respect that we all share the space. 

• Use the appropriate place for your type of play - messy play in the wet room, blood & needle play in the medical room, fire play outside (after speaking to Luna). When doing wax play, you MUST use a drop sheet and be aware of where you place lit candles.

• Dispose of sharps and medical waste safely in the designated containers

• Witnessing is welcome, play is prioritised: 

  • Make space if someone wishes to play where you are sat/stood. 

  • Ensure you do not stare at, sit or stand too close to active play or aftercare, this can feel intrusive and distract players. 

  • Give extra space to account for the play happening around you - e.g. movement of bodies when play fighting, backswing from impact play, space for the rigger to move around when suspending. Being too close endangers you & others. 

Solo-Play:

Solo-play is permitted at Serenity. Solo-play is you playing by yourself, not imposing yourself on someone else's play. Because of the associations that can come with solo-play, we must place a high responsibility on the person solo-playing to ensure they are acting in a way that allows those around them to play comfortably and safely. This means:

• You have a reasonable amount of space around you, not encroaching on anyone else.

• Solo-play must be done respectfully, without encroaching on others or using their scenes as erotic fuel without consent. When in doubt: enjoying the general erotic energy of the space is allowed. Using someone else's play to fuel your pleasure is not. Players are not performers.

• Do not self-suspend unless you are confident and skilled to do so

Serenity is a space that welcomes play that may be unusual at other events. We accept that that the feelings that may arise from witnessing play are our responsibility to unpack and that we will remove ourselves from the play space if we find other's play is not to our taste. Should you be seriously concerned, please speak directly to a team member. 

Team members may check in with those playing to ensure their safety is being honoured. If you wish to embark on a journey that may appear concerning, please bring a team member into awareness. Pre-negotiated edge play is welcome but transparency with the space holders helps maintain a supportive space. Usually, the only time a team member will interrupt play is if safety is in question. 

We honour the knowledge we gain from others and agree not to share their stories without their explicit, authentic consent. This includes photography: please do not take any photos inside the temple. We do not allow use of phones within the sacred play space and ask that you only use your phone in the social area or outside. If you need to keep your phone with you when you enter the play space, please speak to Luna. If you wish to take a photo in one of the private play rooms, please seek permission from Luna, ensure the door is closed and put your phone away before re-entering the main play space. Never share photos without the consent of those in it.

In some circumstances, Luna may need to share the identity of individuals who violate the boundaries at Serenity, cause harm or present a danger to themselves or others. Luna may discuss your attendance at Serenity with other event hosts if concerns have been raised around unethical behaviour in other spaces. In extreme cases Luna may choose to liaise with authorities such as the police.

You are welcome to approach team members for help and guidance. There will always be someone not playing; if you have any questions or concerns please approach them first.

If you desire play with a team member, please approach them respectfully, understanding that they too have desires, needs and boundaries. Their play is not a performance and their role is not to dispense play but to hold the space with safety and love. While all team members may engage in play, they are not expected to. Repeated pressure towards a team member for play is considered a boundary violation. For ethical reasons, Luna does not play with attendees at Serenity. If you see her playing, it will be with someone she already has an established play relationship with. 

Money is a form of energy and by reserving a place at the temple, you take responsibility for that energy exchange. We know things pop up, but unfortunately, we are not able to offer refunds should you be unable to attend. You are welcome to sell or pass your ticket on, just let Luna know via DM or email who the ticket has gone to. If you do not need your ticket, and do not wish to sell it on, please contact Luna so she can organise filling your space.

In line with Luna's values, 10% of tickets are available to be Outreach tickets, which are heavily discounted to allow for those that would otherwise be unable to access this space to attend. While no proof will be required, we ask that you respect this honour system and understand these tickets are designed to help those who would otherwise be unable to access the space.

We are delighted to welcome you to this sacred space of sensuality and can't wait to witness your beautiful pleasure adventures!

The space holders agree to ensure these boundaries are held with love, that appropriate and proportionate reminders are given and that violators are disallowed from this sacred space. At times, individuals may not be ready for this space, and we may use our discretion to recommend healing work or education before returning. Kink can be therapeutic, but it is not therapy. While we may offer suggestions and advice, it is not within the scope of our role to offer education to those that find abiding by these boundaries too challenging. There are many resources designed to teach kink etiquette, consent, risk-mitigation and kink skills.

All concerns and reports will be explored on an individual basis, investigated with care and consideration according to our internal process, and allow for dialogue and healing wherever possible. We encourage you to approach a team member with any issues so that it can be dealt with immediately, but if you need to contact someone later please message Luna directly. If you are aware that an attendee has been banned from other kink spaces, please alert Luna.
