This 3-day training of “Wheel of Consent” brings the transformative model of the Wheel of Consent to practicing professionals who are working with topics of consent, boundaries, relational intimacy, body sovereignty, trauma recovery, sexuality, communication, and touch.
Originally developed for touch practitioners, the course has, by popular demand, expanded to include non-touch practitioners like therapists, coaches, teachers, and workshop leaders.
This training guides you into a personal somatic experience of The Wheel, and then teaches you how to integrate it into your practice, to make all your sessions safer, more effective, and more satisfying.
What you will learn in this training:
What Giving and Receiving really are, and why knowing the difference is crucial for getting profound results for you clients and students
Containment - how to create a strong container for your clients that has enough safety for the therapeutic setting
Quadrants - how the Quadrants of the Wheel of Consent fit into your sessions and how they don't
What will you be able to teach your clients:
To notice, value, trust and communicate their needs and desires
To notice and be responsible for their boundaries
Simple practices/games to take home.
To identify the tendency to go along with what is being done and how to reverse it
To gain confidence and clarity in their ability to touch
To notice they have a choice about how they are being touched and how to choose how they want to be touched.
What this training is:
This Workshop teaches you the practice of the Wheel of Consent.
We do our best to help you experience each of the four quadrants. Once you have the experience, we talk about how to bring these insights and practices to your work with clients.
As you continue with the practice, you will gain insight into how it applies to many situations in your life, including family, work, community and social dynamics. How you will integrate that in your work and life, will be up to you!
You will get a certificate that allows you to publicly say you are trained in the “Wheel of Consent” and can use it on your website.
What this training is not:
Therapy - though it will likely challenge you personally and bring you insights!
An anti-oppression or social justice training - though we will look at how those dynamics affect one's ability to consent!
A training that teaches you how to deliver the full Wheel of Consent Workshop curriculum. There is a Facilitator Certification program if you’d like to do that.
Important note:
This training is not a substitute for “like a pro” Workshop with the school of Consent from Betty Martin. Since this trainingis for practising professionals, it allows you to use the concept in your work practice and you will get a certificate of education.

Baluu Lehmann is a teacher and clinical sexologist. Coming from the sex-positive scene his first contact with the Wheel of Consent was 2018. Since then, he organised many workshops in the field of sexuality. While studying clinical sexology and his master’s degree in sexology he missed the topic of consent. That is why he and Filippa decided to invite Dr. Betty Martin to shine a light on this essential issue for professionals working in a therapeutic setting. Baluu is working in his own practice in Zurich and is on the executive board of institut Sexocorporel international. See www.sexocorporel.com
Besides his passion for the topic of sexuality, he loves tropical plants (his mangotree is his precious), reading and taking a swim in the river Limmat.

Filippa Frick is a physiotherapist and trained in various massage techniques such as Lomi Lomi, Thai massage and medical massage. For over ten years she has been involved with the variety of expressions of touch and its nuances. Most recently, she completed her training as a Holistic Bodyworker and started to deepen her skills in musculoskeletal Physiotherapy. She is working in her own practice in Zürich Oerlikon while also educating people about touch, consent and interpersonal relationships represented by the workshop & intimacy research label luhmen d’arc.
Since the beginning, interpersonal relationships have been at the center of her practice. Radical honesty towards others and herself, the non-judgemental perception of needs and setting clear boundaries are important values in her work and her life. Therefore, she is fascinated with the work of Betty Martin for a very long time and was thrilled when Baluu invited her to co-organize Betty’s teaching in Zurich.
