Basic Medical Play
Say aah! Medical play can be part fetish, part objectification, part S/M, part role play, and totally exciting! Learn how to create the right setting, deliver a basic physical exam, and even delve into some “treatments” that will fulfill your most clinical fantasies in creative ways!
Bondage Basics
Bondage isn’t just rope & handcuffs – it can be leather straps, satin ties, belts – even a bed sheet, if you use it the right way! We’ll talk about how bodies can be bound safely and securely, and how to navigate communication to ensure that everyone has the time of their lives.
“Community” 101 – First Steps into Kink & Swing
Curious or nervous about going to your first kink or swing event or party? We’ll give you a firm grounding in etiquette, what to expect, and how to connect with people to find the social connections – and perhaps play partners – that you’ve been craving!
Dominance 101: Finding Your Self
Curious about what it means to be the dominant? Want to find the way that works for you? We’ll discuss role models, negotiation, and your own inspirations to bring your authentic power to the forefront!
D/s and M/s Rituals & Protocols
Curious about ways to start – or celebrate – your power exchange relationship? We’ll look at ways to create the right headspace for both (or all!) partners, and add depth and breadth to existing dynamics. We’ll focus on your specific questions and goals, as well, to help you bring your D/s fantasies into reality.
Making an Impact with Impact Play
Curious about how to spank, flog, cane, or strike your partner safely? We have all the answers. We’ll cover anatomy, scene pacing, and various techniques for creating scenes from sexy to sadistic – and everything in between!
Needle Play 101
Learn how to safely – and pleasurably – create temporary piercings to deliver a wide range of sensations to your partner.
Negotiating Service from the Bottom Side
Service, whether you see it as a gift, a responsibility, a calling, or an orientation, is at the core of many M/s and D/s relationships. Unfortunately, rarely do we as bottoms have an opportunity to learn how to negotiate service effectively with prospective tops, dominants, or Masters/Mistresses – and those skills are of vital importance when it comes to finding, and serving, the right person in the right ways. Join Sarah and other attendees to discuss how to determine our own motivations for service, how to communicate them clearly, how to set and maintain boundaries, and how to ensure more realistic expectations on all sides of the equation.
Rough Body Play
Like to play rough? Let’s talk about how to use your own body – your hands, arms, knees, even your own body weight – to overpower your partner in ways that you’ll both love!
Sensory Deprivation
Taking away the ability to sense our surroundings – not just sight, but touch, hearing, and even taste – changes the way we perceive our place in the world and in our kinky relationships. Learning to control what those senses perceive is even more powerful! We’ll cover ways to block, influence, and overpower the senses to create myriad experiences for ourselves and our partners.
Service for the Novice Top
Rarely does someone come into the knowledge that they wish to be the dominant partner in a relationship with a full and impeccable set of skills necessary to navigate the waters of working with a service oriented bottom. Let’s examine the challenges of accepting service from both novice and experienced submissives, and talk about motivating and challenging them to grow as a submissive. We’ll also talk about techniques for increasing your comfort level in directing submissives or slaves in service activities. (This class is also ideal for a top that is stepping back into a D/s or M/s relationship, as well as for submissives or slaves that are uncomfortable with the concept of directing the service of others)
The Three C’s: Communication, Compassion, and Consent
Deeply satisfying play happens as a result of mutual empowerment – which can only happen when we open up clearly & compassionately with our partners. Let’s sit down and discuss ways that we can bring our most authentic selves to this conversation, and how we can create a space for our partners to bravely bring their own wants & needs to the table in a spirit of trust.
