Consent & Boundaries

Consent is the practical, moment-to-moment expression of our Permission principle. This page explains exactly how consent works in a Kama Flight or Kama Floor session — what it sounds like, what it protects, and what to do if a boundary is crossed.

Partners practicing trust and non-verbal listening in a Kama Flight session

What Consent Looks Like Here

  • Ongoing, not one-time. Instructors and partners ask before every touch and every transition — not just once at the start of class.
  • Specific, not general. Saying yes to one movement is not blanket consent to everything that follows.
  • Revocable, anytime. Either partner can pause, slow down, or stop completely — no explanation required.
  • Verbal and non-verbal. Instructors are trained to watch for tension, hesitation, or withdrawal, not just listen for words.

No-Fly Zones

The chest, inner thighs, and buttocks are off-limits in every sequence we teach, in every format — Class, Workshop, Jam, or Teacher Training. This is a fixed rule, not a suggestion, and it applies to every instructor and every participant.

Structured Check-Ins

  • Instructors pause the room at set points in every session to ask how partners are doing: continue, modify, or stop.
  • Either partner can initiate a check-in unprompted, at any time.
  • Check-ins happen every time roles swap or partners change.

Choosing (and Changing) Your Role

Base and Voyager are roles you choose, not roles assigned by gender or assumption. You can ask to switch roles, change partners, or sit out a sequence at any point — see our Safety Standards for how Polarity works in practice.

Boundaries Beyond Touch

Consent covers more than physical contact. Photography and video are only taken with the explicit consent of everyone who would appear in frame (see our Code of Conduct). You can also decline personal conversation, "getting to know you" exercises, or any part of a session that doesn't feel right — declining is always respected.

If a boundary is crossed

Tell your facilitator directly, or contact our support team at support@kamaflight.com. See our full Code of Conduct for how reports are handled, and our Trauma-Sensitive Practice page for how we hold space afterward.
