Time to get kinky! Youve attended munches or dungeon socials. You saw that cool thing there and wanted to try it too. How do you go from strangers to playing? Maybe some tips and tricks for play too!
Description:
Attendance of Kink 101 and/or 102 is mandatory. With a solid foundation from Kink 101 and Kink 102, now is the time to get in on the action. Attending social events showed you a wide world of kink and a ton of other kinksters, but how do you play with them? In this class, two experienced lifestyle kinksters (who you should know by now) go over what vetting is, how to vet a member of the community, how to negotiate with somebody before having a scene, and how to have a scene. Scenes come in all kinds and all are meant for fun! Safety is still at the forefront of our minds as we show you how to get to playing and to do so in a risk aware way while still having fun. After this class, youll be equipped with the knowledge to go to the dungeon with confidence of how to be a safe member of the community and have as much fun as you can handle. Questions will be answered if time permits.
