It's back. 🤍
After a couple of years away, the Cuddle Party is returning to Riga — and if you've been waiting for it, this is your sign not to miss it.
Cuddle Party | Riga | 3. October
Hosted by Natalja Sorokina (Thalia Hel)
with two wonderful co-organisers — Ri and Amanda.
Ri and Amanda are working towards creating a space in Riga for events where people can explore themselves and others.
They are interested in practices that involve both body and mind, giving people a chance to notice their reactions, explore their boundaries, and try something new out of curiosity.
They see Cuddle Party as one of these practices. They are also looking for new formats and connecting with local and international facilitators to bring them to Riga.
What is a Cuddle Party?
A Cuddle Party is a structured social event for adults where you can meet new people, enjoy real conversations, practice asking for what you want, practice saying no to what you don't want — and yes, cuddle.
At its heart it is about nonsexual touch and human connection. Touch is a basic need. When fulfilled in the amount you truly want, it leaves you more relaxed, emotionally nourished, physically grounded, and resourceful. Most of us don't get nearly enough of it.
What happens at a Cuddle Party?
The event opens with a Welcome Circle — an introduction to the rules, a conversation about consent and boundaries, and a chance to meet the other participants before anything else happens.
From there you choose your own experience. You can:
Meet new people and have real conversations
Give and receive hugs and nurturing touch
Practice asking clearly for what you want
Practice saying no comfortably and without guilt
Simply relax and be held
There is no pressure, no expectation, and no sexual activity. You set your own pace and boundaries at all times.
Light refreshments — juices, fruit, and snacks — are provided. The only substance here is oxytocin.
Your host
Natalja Sorokina (Thalia Hel) is a sex and kink coach, consent educator, safe space facilitator, and pro Domme. She has been hosting and facilitating Cuddle Parties since 2021 and is available throughout the event for any questions, support, or guidance.
