2021 MEXICO SAR DURING WICKED EDEN! With Dr. David Ley and Heather McPherson


MEXICO SAR DURING WICKED EDEN!

Join us for our Sexceptional SAR by SHA on October 20 - 24th, 2021 in Mexico! This is considered an Advanced SAR.

This SAR is during Wicked Eden which is a hotel takeover that is a highly sexually charged weekend in the Cancun. Wicked Eden events are not for AASECT CE SAR credit and are not a part of the AASECT CE SAR training.

For those that have already attended a SAR with us, rest assured this will be a whole new experience! If you need AASECT CEs* for certification or renewal, this is your chance!

This event is open to ALL, not just current SHA students!

We offer our events to anyone throughout the world that wants to attend so all of our international friends are welcome!

Wicked Eden includes various events which are optional and are not a part of the SAR for AASECT CEs. Here’s their description: Unleash your carnal cravings at the first annual "Wicked Eden". Indulge in four decadent nights of Pre-Halloween Carnaval style adult fun; including private sky lounge parties, room crawls, mixers, headline DJ's, and anything else a wicked heart desires. We will explore all our inhibitions as we join a seductive, international group for a wicked week of fun in the Caribbean.
