MELT

the MELT Collective

Formerly known as the Surrender Play Party team.

The MELT Collective is a vibrant constellation of kinky, sex-positive facilitators passionate about curating spaces where erotic exploration meets deep intentionality. Based in Colorado, this group of experienced practitioners designs and facilitates conscious kink events that are as playful and liberating as they are grounded in care, consent, and community wisdom.

Meet the Collective

Here are the people who make the MELT events happen:

kAT

Facilitator

Kat is a kinky, sex positive activist whose polyamorous heart loves performing, facilitating and supporting sensual events. Her life’s mission is to be a beacon of unconditional love, and to share that love by supporting people in their full expression in expansive, luscious containers. She is an operations and organizational wizard who has a knack for bringing visions of all scales and flavors to life. Her background in tarot and the mystic supports these missions.

nATE

Facilitator

Nate is a creative human and co-founder of Studio Friction. For years, he has passionately taught rope bondage, and delights in helping people discover its marvels. He is dedicated to fostering more pleasure and creativity in sensual spaces, viewing sexy parties as a form of artistic expression. A lifelong student of creativity, rope, connection, sensuality, and sexuality, Nate continues to explore strange places and share what he’s discovered.

tATTOOED n nERDY

Facilitator

Tattooed N Nerdy is a total sex nerd, both personally and professionally. In her vanilla time, she provides education about kink, sexuality, consensual non-monogamy, intimacy, desire, and navigating trauma recovery. As a polyamorous relationship anarchist, she adores watching connections blossom into whatever they are, without expectation or obligation. Throughout all aspects of her life, she is an intersectional and sex-positive provocateur hoping to instigate thoughtful dialogue and dispel shame related to all things kinky and sexy.

Feedback

Heartfelt reflections from people who have attended our events.

“Femme Surrender was a sanctuary in a tender season of my life. I arrived seeking connection and left with so much more—affirmation, joy, and a profound sense of belonging. From playful workshops to spontaneous conversations and intimate moments of care, the space allowed me to feel fully seen and celebrated in my femme identity. I’m so grateful for the intentional container, the consent-forward energy, and the chance to move through it all with both independence and intimacy. I left feeling nourished, grounded, and alive.”

“I really enjoyed the opening piece. As someone who is new to the kink and even ENM scene, it was very empowering and enlightening. Being able to meet folks in a very positive and safe space was really amazing. Mindfully learning about giving and receiving informed consent was truly awesome.”
