Connecting with your partner
Or 10 secrets of a great scene. This interactive class will explore the secrets of a great scene by learning how to read and react to your bottom, starting with negotiation through the scene and including aftercare. This works equally well with a longtime partner, or someone you just picked up in the dungeon, it will make them think you read minds, but we know you're just really smart! |

By the Roots
Let’ get to the root of things! Hair is an often overlooked tool in negotiation, pleasure and, of course, pain. Take an intimate and fun look at the art of hair play and hair bondage, including anatomy, safety and practical tips. |

Opposition bondage
The art of tying the bottom in such a manner as to put the bottom in control of his pain by binding one or more parts of the body in oppositions with other parts. Watch as your bottom trades discomfort here for pain there and seeks relief from pain there for discomfort there….spice things up by adding an antagonist. Tie two bottoms together to see if they will work together or in opposition. |

Spanking: from zero to Erotic in 10 seconds
There is perhaps no other form of play that is as versatile as spanking. Yet, is often overlooked and over simplified. But nothing demonstrates, Victorian Pornography, age play, humiliation, punishment, and D/s like spanking. This class starts on the bottom and explores other parts of the body to spank; how our goals impact our approach to spanking; tools of the trade and styles and positions. |
