a circle of women sitting attentively on cushions

heartTO HEART

delicious/mischievous is a sapphic community built on consent and care: attuned, tender & playful events for women who love women. A space for authentic connection through listening, care & body awareness. A bubble of magic, joy and belonging dedicated to all the malicieuses, with or without experience, single or in a relationship, of all ages and orientations.

"Heart to heart" is our workshop dedicated to authentic relating and the power of the circle. An immersive 4-hour format to meet differently through the magic of words, presence and deep listening. An attuned, vulnerable space, among women who love women, to explore authentic relating, let masks fall and weave powerful emotional connections.

THE INTENTION

To offer time away from everyday life to explore what "being connected" truly means. In a society where interactions are often superficial or rushed, this workshop invites you to slow down and ground yourself in your own truth. Here, we explore not attentive physical touch (as in our formats dedicated to tenderness), but verbal and emotional intimacy. The intention is to discover one another from a place of radical authenticity: sharing what is alive within you, daring to be warmly curious and experiencing the incredible power of resonance within a group of women. It's a relational laboratory where we learn to see one another and be seen, without judgement or expectation.

WHO THIS FORMAT IS FOR

This workshop is for you if:

  • You're curious about discovering our spaces but prefer an experience without physical contact.

  • You want to build friendships or deep connections with other women in the community, beyond the usual conversations.

  • You want to explore your own vulnerability and ability to express your emotions in a supported, trauma-informed and caring setting.

  • You enjoy (or want to discover) practices of introspection, attentive communication and presence with others.

WHAT YOU'LL EXPERIENCE

  • part 1: settling in & somatic grounding (1 hr)

    After our opening circle, we'll take time for somatic grounding to regulate our nervous systems. This essential decompression time helps us slow down, leave everyday life at the door and arrive fully in the space and in our bodies.

  • part 2: connection games & authentic relating (2 hrs)

    We'll then immerse ourselves in a series of "authentic relating games" (attentive icebreakers). In pairs or small groups, through simple, guided structures, we'll use curiosity, empathy and play to get to know one another. It's a lively, joyful time to ease mental pressure, have fun and begin building a sense of connection within the group.

  • part 3: the circle of the malicieuses (1 hr)

    The final hour of the workshop is dedicated to an immersive practice called FORUM. Sitting together, we'll co-create a space of absolute listening.

WHERE & when

A beautiful, large, bright space with high ceilings (usually a dance hall, yoga studio, art gallery or large private flat), specially decorated and arranged for the occasion.

The space opens its doors at [TO BE COMPLETED].

The opening circle begins at [TO BE COMPLETED]: from that moment, the doors are closed and it is no longer possible to join the event, in order to preserve the framework set together.

the delicious/mischievous framework: A FACILITATED SPACE

At delicious/mischievous, encounters rely neither on improvisation nor on social pressure. The experience takes place in what we call "a facilitated space": a relational framework guided with care, designed so that you can take part in complete confidence.

gentle grounding

Every event begins with an opening circle. It's a time to settle in, share your inner weather and set out your boundaries for the day.

caring guidance

Our facilitator holds the space. She marks its thresholds and opens and closes each part. She offers gradual invitations to connect (through play, listening and movement) and ensures the integrity of the experience.

consent as our compass

Every activity is clearly explained and requires explicit consent. Here, everything is an invitation: you choose what to experience, how, with whom and with what intensity.

your absolute sovereignty

Nothing is ever compulsory. At any time, you're free to participate, simply observe or step away to honour your own pace. Those coming as a couple can also choose to experience it just as a pair, in their own bubble.

This framework creates a space of confidentiality and collective responsibility. It allows you to release the pressure, listen to yourself fully and explore relating with gentleness and authenticity, without any expectation or judgement.

the FACILITATOR | ALICE KIELO

Inspired by a vision of re-enchanting the world, Alice's work follows an attuned, poetic creative approach, in which each offering is conceived as a bouquet, a living composition. She conceives delicious/mischievous as an artistic experience of connection: a new language of intimacy made of presence, care and beauty. This vision infuses the aesthetics and ethics of every encounter and, as events unfold, shapes the heart of the community.

Alice develops spaces where grace, music and attentive touch become doorways to authentic, intimate encounters. Dance as a philosophy, spontaneous movement and the idea of relational attunement hold a central place, attentive to presence, the right gesture and the utter simplicity of the moment.

Alice has trained professionally in relational and somatic facilitation through outstanding international programmes. Her qualifications include Field Facilitator (Rachel Rickards), Integral Tantra Teacher (Jacques Ferber) and Tantric Dance Teacher (Rakesh Mijling). Her approach is trauma-informed, with constant attention to emotional safety, consent and respect for individual rhythms.

She is also the creator of the Laboratoire de l'Intime workshops.

who are the MALICIEUSES?

This sapphic space is open to all women attracted to other women — whether you're lesbian, bi, pan or simply curious. Age is never a selection criterion, and participants are generally between 25 and 55. The events are suited to single people as well as to those coming as a couple.

We come together around bodily, relational and creative practices, rooted in relational awareness, and around shared values: authenticity, emotion, care, community, tenderness. Together, we cultivate a sense of celebration and beauty, and co-create spaces that explore other ways of relating, of inhabiting the body and of thinking about the world.

The harmony of our collective rests on respect, individual responsibility and the care given to our bonds. Every participant is invited to contribute to a space where everyone's boundaries, consent, diversity of experience and emotional safety are fully respected.

We reserve the right of access and participation for all our events. Any inappropriate behaviour may lead to immediate or permanent exclusion from our formats, with no possibility of a refund. This decision rests solely with the organising team and aims to preserve the integrity, safety and relational quality of our spaces.

Every trans woman, every person in transition, is welcome at delicious/mischievous. If you have a question, read our access framework, or write to us: we'll answer you personally.

what should I BRING?

Comfortable, loose clothes in which you feel good and pretty! Colours and floral patterns naturally find their place in the delicious/mischievous world — perhaps it's the moment to bring out your most beautiful kimono, if you feel like it.

Treats (fruit, pastries…) and/or a non-alcoholic drink (kombucha, kefir, lemonade, iced tea…) to share.
