Pack Night!
PACK NIGHT presented by Davey Faye @mxdaveyfaye

PACK NIGHT gathers every 1st Sunday & 3rd Thursday from 7 to 9:30pm, doors open at 6:30pm

Event themes change on a monthly basis and recycle every six months. (See themes below!)

Unleash the inner wild in a group format! PACK NIGHT is an intentionally created, recurring safer space for manifesting your evolving primal. What does your primal sound like, feel like  how does it move  can it play well with others? Using somatic movement and vocal exercises aimed to help you tap into the beastly beauty within, as well as emotional activators through eye contact and improvisation, the circle will be led to fall into a pack mind, blending the fierce (and the more sensitive) primal energies in the room with the common goal to release and revel in our creature-selves. Explore different animalistic embodiments, give yourself permission to growl and howl, coo and hiss, and discover elements of your own identity previously hidden from view. Challenge assumptions of how you should be and unveil new ways to connect with others. Over time as our pack grows and changes, the initiation exercises will adapt to communal calling.

Every PACK NIGHT begins with guided activities for body and mind to support unlocking inner primalism as an individual and as a group, and then opens the floor to freeform exploration. As energies wind down, the evening concludes with a closing circle meant to support integration with these powerful energies and potential shadows, and encourages attendees to find comfort from the journey we took as a primal family. Let yourself dive in to the deep and dark, and bring back tools of empowerment and awareness to use in your everyday life. All bodies, identities, and presentations are enthusiastically welcome to attend. While the only ingress/egress of Wicked Ground Annex is via a flight of stairs, once inside the space PACK NIGHT is diligently dedicated to making all activities accessible and will work within the limitations and comforts of individuals in attendance.

(This is not a ropes skills class nor a BDSM/critter play presentation, but those energies and tools are welcome in the space during guided play if that is how you are individually called. This is a sex-positive, body-positive space, but for the sake of emotional safety and hygiene while rolling around the floor and letting the mind loose, all attendees must use an undergarment covering below-belly-button genitalia at minimum. We recognize that arousal can come up when exploring these themes and we welcome all natural process, but attendees must commit to maintaining a PG-13 atmosphere. Thank you for your part in preserving the intention of this space.)


MAY 5th Discovering your Inner Primal

Welcome to PACK NIGHT! Our first stroll out of human shoes onto our wild limbs invites your curiosity, your willing heart, and your sense of adventure to come out and play! For first time attendees or old pack members alike, this is a delightful opportunity to feel out the more innocent side of primal existence, the young and eager fledgling notions, the whimsical sweetness of primals only just discovering their power. Unlock new identities and invite a spirit of insight through physicality, sound, and guided narration.

Followed by Pack Snack & decompression downstairs at Wicked Grounds <3


MAY 16th  Alpha Games

The inner pack struggle: who is the leader of your pack? What energies in the room motivate the group, and who wants to fight for the seat of power? Tonight, pack member takes on pack member in structured primal brawl. Primals not drawn to an alpha position will also unravel how their personality feeds the group, and how that role might feed themselves. Trust exercises, conflict drills, and theatre games accentuate this PACK NIGHT fueled by the fire of power struggles and the primal heart.

JUNE 2nd & 20th  The Hunt: Predator and Prey

And so the hunt begins! This PACK NIGHT ups the ante with group exercises designed to manifest pack mind, and stimulate the visceral drive to consume. Practicing hunting games with your compatriots will provide opportunities for primals to bond as a group and test out leadership structures, as well as a space for smaller or inquisitive primals to explore vulnerability and the thrill of pursuit. Additionally & optionally, after class we will roam the streets and prowl as a hungry pack to chomp down into a juicy hunk of meat (+vegetarian options) and conclude our hunt for hedonistic pleasure with full, happy bellies!

Followed by Pack Meal at a nearby SoMa restaurant!


JULY 7th & 18th  Primal Frenzy: Anger and Ecstasy

Unleash the beast within and relish in your own primordial power. This time, PACK NIGHT takes it personal, and invites you to let out some of you inner demons and impassioned chaos in a conscious space with controlled intent. Explorations of physical vs psychological size, how both rapture and rage manifest in complicated beings, and reflection on how our primal power informs our human emotions will round out this hot bed of potent play and self discovery.

AUGUST 4th & 15th The Wounded Primal: Grief and Healing

Pain and pleasure both play important parts in the worlds of lust and power. While previous PACK NIGHT iterations have explored many forms of feeling alive and alight, this class will tune into somatic manifestation of primal suffering and sorrow, including group exercises designed to consensually challenge your individual and communal sense of safety. After holding space for our traumas and our loss, we will shift into compassionate work on finding softness and warmth in our rawest forms, and harnessing love of self along with love of chosen kin and fellow primal-kind.

SEPTEMBER 1st & 19th  Celebrating the Pack

Time to roar out in primal glory! Whether you've made it to every other PACK NIGHT event or this is your first time syncing into the pack mimd, we invite you to revel in your rawest form and find the flow that fits your instincts in this positively primal play space. Somatic exercises continue to inform your animalistic explorations, while group drills stimulate fantasy and allow you to feel out your freest form. Come ready to join in the jubilation, and inspired to continue your primal journey!

Followed by Pack Meal at nearby SoMa restaurant & possible nightlife/dancing!

ABOUT THE PRESENTER

Mx Davey Faye is an enthusiastic erotic artist, educating exhibitionist, and community oriented woo-tastic playslut full of service and snark. They identify as an enigmatic genderfuck beastie and polyamorous pansexual sadomasochist, with an appetite for primalism, scarification, and a particular love of porcupine quills. Davey possesses a background in classical literature, mythology, and theatre, and they are deeply interested in the power of storytelling through kink. In performance, they strive to examine themes of gender, vulnerability, shadow dancing, perseverance over trauma, and erotic empowerment. Reviewed as both a shamanic healer and sexual savant, you can find this bitch of a switch regularly presenting at venues in the SF Bay Area and sporadic national conventions. They are a managing partner of Bondage-A-Go-Go, a regular performer at Twisted Windows and Opel Productions events, a founding facilitator of Oakland Rope Collective, creator of the ongoing series SPARC and Pack Night, and are also known to relish collaborative opportunities with other presenters and artists. For over a decade, Davey has danced, surrendered, and battled with words, paint, rope, blades, electricity and fire both privately and publicly, and continues to do so while rising into roles of dissociative advocacy and disability awareness.
