Smitten Kitten Offrers Free Sex and Relationship Classes

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn.—In a move to provide accessible education for all interested people, the local progressive sex shop Smitten Kitten is waiving ticket costs for all its educational events. “We believe that sex education should be free and available to anyone who wants to learn,” said owner and co-founder Jennifer Pritchett. “Therefore we’ll be subsidizing tuition for everyone who wants to attend our events, and offering all our classes free of charge.”  Smitten Kitten partners with award-winning sex educators from around the country to bring high quality sexual health resources to people in Minnesota. “Part of the store’s mission is to serve our local community,” said senior staff member Hannah Jorden. “And that includes providing opportunities like this. Our classes are fantastic learning opportunities, and they make a great date night, too!” With two free classes scheduled in April and more events slated for summer, Smitten Kitten is ready to welcome lots of new visitors and long time fans through its doors.  UPCOMING WORKSHOPS Partners in Passion -Thursday, April 17 - 7-9pm Great sex and lasting relationships are mutual undertakings that are nurtured by selflessness, the deliberate cultivation of what we call profound interest in one’s partner, a determination to be as kind as possible, even during difficult times, and a recognition that, while openness and honesty are important, discernment about when and how to be open and honest is equally important. In this workshop, Mark A. Michaels and Patricia Johnson will explore an approach to love and sex that differs dramatically from beliefs that are current both in popular culture and in much of the therapeutic community and provide you with both a theoretical perspective and practical tools for inventing or reinventing your relationship as a collaboration, a joint venture. Basic Sexual Adventuring: A Tantric Approach - Friday, April 18 - 7-9pm Start your sexual adventures with Tantra experts and authors Mark A. Michaels and Patricia Johnson. Topics covered will include sexual consciousness, emotional intimacy and long term love. Good sex is closely tied to the general health of a long-term relationship. Misguided beliefs about the nature of sex, love, and what it takes to have an enduring relationship are deeply embedded in Western culture. Join Mark & Patricia as they take you through the steps to creating a lasting emotional bond.   For more information, visit The Smitten Kitten online or contact them at 612.721.6088 or at info@smittenkittenonline.com.
