• 2:30-4:00 PM - Releasing Shame with ProfesSir Greg - Great Room
  Shame is so often a major barrier to kink exploration. And yet, shame is rarely ours to carry. This dialogue session centers the topic of shame as it relates to kink and our sexualities in hopes of dislodging shame as a societal mechanism of control that we rarely consent to. Of note: this session is not designed to shame kinksters who are into shaming in BDSM dynamics.

  • OR - Aftercare: The Calm After the Storm with Sir Thomas - Temple
    Once the flogging is finished, the cries are silenced, and both the Top and sub are physically exhausted and emotionally transported, how do they return to the real world? This roundtable discussion will focus on the importance of aftercare and how the quiet and gentleness of the post-scene experience can strengthen the bond between participants. The discussion will cover how to approach aftercare once the scene is done, how to care for a sub in sub-space, what some of the needs of a Top may be, and how to care for someone who is triggered unexpectedly.

• 4:30-6:00 PM - Switch It Up with ProfesSir Greg - Great Room
  A lot of us in the community are hearing more about switches, but rarely do we get to hold space to talk about the joys and struggles of being a switch in BDSM dynamics. This session will offer some different ways to define “switch,” explore what that can look like in and out of more traditional Dom/sub dynamics, and play a bit with our bodies and communication strategies for expressing switchiness.

  • OR - Mentorship in the Kink Community: A Roundtable Discussion with Sir Thomas - Temple
    Mentorship is the practice of providing guidance and education to newcomers or those less experienced in the lifestyle. Mentors help mentees navigate safely and confidently on their journey of self-discovery, giving them tools and understanding to grow and become their most authentic selves. This discussion will offer suggestions on how to vet potential mentees and mentors, communication tools that facilitate the mentorship process, different types of mentorship techniques, and how to develop the best approach to help guide a mentee on their journey through the kink lifestyle.

Often when wrapped, folks have an out-of-body experience or a cocoon feeling. Each person has their own experience. Often more BDSM play happens. We will demonstrate other toys that can be used.

We will also explore what brings you here psychologically, including releasing fears and opening to desires. We will demonstrate a wax edge session, and then it’s hands-on exploring.

  • OR - A Little Leverage: Simple Body Harnesses for Intimate Encounters with Rhyse - Great Room
    Using the beginner-friendly Lark’s Head and Overhand knots, attendees will work alongside the instructor to construct a full body bind. This includes hip harness, chest harness, and optional ties for the wrists and ankles that serve to heavily restrict the bottom’s mobility while providing the Top with all-important leverage. In addition to being fun, sexy, and aesthetically pleasing, these ties also create accessibility for intimate connections. Come to class prepared to tie and be tied.

• 11:00 AM-12:30 PM - Identity Work: Intentional Dynamics and Community with ProfesSir Greg and Rhyse - Temple
  Building inclusive dynamics, spaces, and communities begins inside ourselves. How can we build awareness about our community members who are different from us? How can we learn to be fully present and supportive in our relationships, both romantic and communal? This session seeks to begin answering these questions by building awareness of our own unconscious biases and learning to dismantle them.

  • OR - Tits, Pits, and the Art of Touch with Sir Thomas - Great Room
    A combination roundtable and hands-on exploration of what draws us to tit and pit play.
