Often incredibly personal and subjective, considered as edge-play by many: Humiliation play is rather the slippery fish of BDSM. Thankfully, someone well versed in bringing questionable seafood into the dungeon is Best_in_show. This talk/demo visits such hot topics as… What is humiliation play, + why one should/n’t do it. Developing humiliation scenes + top tips on making them super effective. Creating/utilizing audiences ethically + how to minimize risk when invited into scenes …hopefully aiding others in their own understanding and journey into what is an often misunderstood fetish.

For some the world of Leather is simply a mysterious, otherworldly seeming place, for others it’s our bedroom playground, our choice for daily living, our dreams and our realities. Come along, listen and learn, and ask your questions on Leather as a life choice. What is protocol, what types, and what might that look like in a life with a job, mortgage and even kids? What protocols might you enjoy, and what can and might we choose for ourselves as individuals?

Coming from a rope background but offering techniques that work with and without bondage, we will teach a number of ways to physically move a bottom/be moved by a top in a scene. We focus on tips and tricks for non-verbally moving a bottom, with variations that allow for size differences, dis/abilities and differing play dynamics. This is a hands-on class with exercises that will require a workshop partner.

What makes for thriving long term D/s relationships? In this workshop, we’ll get together and share our tips, tricks and strategies for keeping D/s and power exchange healthy and hot over time, after the new relationship energy has changed into something else. We will focus on getting in touch with what we really long for, imagining that future, and sharing what WORKS to help get us there.

A ritual can be as mundane as a morning paper, or as intense as a baptism of fire. A ritual can be personal, like how you get in and out of a scene, mark an important event between loved ones, or foster unity in a wider community. The uses of ritual in play, D/s relationships and your private kink journey are endless. In this workshop, participants will have the opportunity to share ideas and try some hands-on ritual crafting.

Participants are encouraged, but not required to to bring an object or toy that could be part of a ritual.

Taboo – what is it to you? What limits your sexual freedom? “Emancipate yourself from mental slavery” This quote by Bob Marley has always resonated and inspired both O/our own journey and this workshop. This workshop is for anyone wanting to be more open and honest with themselves and have greater freedom within their current or future relationships about their desires.

W/we will explore subjects such as barriers and limits to sexual freedom, open communication, power exchange, perceptions of what’s taboo, getting to know your/your partner’s body, and how to love the adult and nurture the child within.
