Slow & Wild Studios is the private relational healing lab and embodiment studio of Self-Reclamation Coach and Relational Dominatrix, Kris Ward. It is both a somatic and relational training ground for women (and occasionally their intimate partners). Our physical studio is located in Mount Pleasant, SC, and serves women inside our private membership. We also work virtually with select clients around the world.

At its core, Slow & Wild is nervous system repair, polarity restoration, and embodied intimacy training. Women come here to reclaim their agency, wholeness, sensuality, and feminine radiance — inside marriage, motherhood, and modern life.

Our address is 1903 Hwy 41 Suite 204, Mount Pleasant, SC 29466.

We're a Sisterhood of soulful, body-positive women healing and liberating ourselves and each other by stripping away shame and unbinding our hearts, minds, and bodies. Creating a safe, judgment- and competition-free zone is our highest priority.

The women who gravitate here may or may not be dancers or yogis in the traditional sense, but they love to move, fully inhabit their bodies, and embrace their humanity and desire. Big-hearted and brave AF, they choose personal freedom, self-honoring, and being REAL over the relentless expectations of our noisy, hustle-driven society. What’s not to love?

We’re a private sisterhood. Our studio space has limited Sensory Mats (the 6-foot round faux fur rugs that we stretch and move on). Some parties will be limited to 8 participants, while others will be 16 or more, depending on the theme and whether or not we’re using the Sensory Mats.

Re: gender of participants, while the Slow & Wild Sisterhood is exclusive to people who identify as women, members are often allowed to bring a guest. Whether their guests should be female or somewhere else on the gender spectrum will depend upon the party’s theme.

Parties will typically fall on Friday evenings from 6:30-9PM, roughly every other month.

We currently have 3 subscriptions to choose from for membership into Slow & Wild: Rhythm (8 class credits/mo.), Pulse (4 class credits/mo.), or Book Dommes (our private book club).

Although all 3 of these subscriptions include free entry into DVP, only Rhythm, the higher-tier studio membership grants priority access – 1 week of exclusive booking rights.

Tickets for guests and non-members are $97.

Definitely not sex parties! Just SEX-Y parties! 👯‍♀️ …like YOU!

We dance our faces and booties off (a mix of guided and free-flow movement) and will always incorporate a hands-on workshop. You can count on it being safe (with clearly defined boundaries), sexy, educational, lighthearted and fun!

Workshop topics can range from polarity play to breathwork and energetics – all designed to increase your confidence and body awareness, give you easier access to your own turn-on, and strip away any shame or other pleasure- and joy-blockers.

Attire will vary based upon theme (from 80’s party, to no make-up, to Femme Fatale, to your favorite Goddess or Feminine Archetype). What matters is that you feel sexy, playful and curious to learn something new as you let your hair down.

The exact ratio of guided versus freestyle movement that you can expect at each party depends on the theme and how much time we need for the particular workshop. But the focus will always be on embodiment (getting into our bodies and out of our heads).

We’ll typically start and end every party with open dancing. Turn your brain off, your body on, and shake what your mama gave you!
