Introductory Classes
Introduction to Rope Bondage: Columns and Harnesses
This class will introduce the basics of rope bondage: we’ll begin with a brief discussion of safety and types of rope and then continue into hands-on demonstrations of several ties and techniques that form the foundation of functional rope bondage. We’ll cover one and two column ties, a basic but stylish chest harness and the classic karada/tortoise-shell harness. If we have time, we’ll combine several of them together in a complete rope scene.
This is a hands-on class, if possible you should come with a partner. We’ll help pair up singles at the class as well.
You should bring: 2-3 30′ lengths of rope (MFP, Nylon or Hemp preferred). If you don’t have rope, we’ll have extra to lend at the demo.
Introduction to Electroplay
Bzzt! Electroplay comes in many forms and can be a fun and exciting way to add some buzz to your scenes. In this class we will go over the basics of the two most popular types of electroplay: Violet Wands and TENS units and talk about the different sensations they can produce and the kinds of scenes you can have with them. Time dependent, attendees will get a chance to try to feel violet wand and tens sensations.

Predicament Bondage
Predicament Bondage
This class will explore the use of bondage to create dynamic predicaments – situations where the bottom needs to decide which of multiple types of pain or stress is most endurable at any given point and balance between their options. We will present several situations and go over how to use these concepts in scenes of your own. Either rope and a knowledge of basic column ties or leather straps or cuffs will be helpful in replicating the scenarios from this class, as will a pair of nipple clamps.
