Intensive Class Descriptions
Class 1: Deep Impact
If you crave deep thuddy sensation, are seeking more extensive bruising, or want your partner to feel how much you care about them all the way down to their bones, this class is for you! Carmen will discuss marking, anatomical and safety concerns for scenes with deep thud, as well as general best practices and techniques. We’ll demonstrate intense rough body, how certain types of bondage and body positioning can help strikes penetrate further into the body, and which toys and pervertables can be enlisted to bring that extra oomph to your impact.
Class 2: Advanced Scene Planning
Planning and executing a high-concept scene can take a lot of thought and effort. This class will help participants looking to gain confidence with preparing and executing an intense or important scene by walking attendees through how to analyze, negotiate and plan. Participants should plan to bring a scene idea to workshop. An experienced instructor will help attendees refine their scene concepts and collaborate with other participants to leave class with a solid idea of how to make their fantasy a reality.
