SUMMARY:Flogging: An Impactful Art with Whittney and Willow
DESCRIPTION:Class Description\nThe art of flogging relies on a broad range of skills\, each of which are arts on their own. When brought together\, these skills transform flogging from being a simple impact scene into an expression of creativity that deepens the connection between the people involved. \nThis playshop focuses on presenting the skills of flogging as building blocks\, with suggestions on how to practice each and then integrate them into a cohesive whole. Together we’ll explore the typical skills: how to stand\, how to hold your tool\, and ways to throw. We will also explore: how to get your partner ready and connect to them\, how to use music\, create flow\, and most importantly\, how to have fun. The goal of this playshop is to give you a way to practice that will let you create and develop your unique style and includes a great deal of opportunity for hands-on practice. \nAttendees are encouraged to bring a flogger\, or flogger-like toy (there are ways to make an easy rope flogger)\, and a partner to practice on. \nPresenter Bio\nWhittney is a kinky polymath with over 30 years of exploring BDSM and teaching on a wide variety of kinky and non-kinky subjects. A respected Priest in the Pagan community\, talented massage and yoga therapist\, and registered nurse\, he uses his diverse skill set to enrich his teaching and further his community service. He currently serves as a board member\, Safety Officer\, and Dungeon Daddy for The Crucible in Washington\, DC. \nWhittney and his Boy Willow lead SuspenDC\, a crew of kinky hook suspension artists specializing in tailored and transformative experiences. See the benefits and feel the advantage of a lifetime of experience and service to the BDSM community\, and come watch their team help people defy fear\, gravity\, and common sense as they Get Hooked and Fly! \n\n**THIS IS AN IN-PERSON EVENT AND WILL NOT BE STREAMED. YOU MUST ATTEND IN PERSON. **\nAll ticket sales are at the door.\nProof of Vaccination will NO LONGER be required.\n\nTickets are $5 for Black Rose Members and Members of Reciprocal Groups with their Membership Card and $10 for non-members. \n\nEmail info@br.org for more information about Black Rose or its events. \nAccessibility accommodations are available upon request to accessibility@br.org. Please give us two weeks’ notice. \nIf you have questions or would like to request a class topic\, please email education@br.org

SUMMARY:Decorating Through the Skin (Decorative Needle Play) with Willow & Marti
DESCRIPTION:Class Description\nReady to level up from simple rows and buttons to craft your own unique designs in steel and skin? Decorative needlework does NOT have to be complicated to wow\, nor does it require high tech solutions or exotic needles. From basic beading and lacing to adorn the body\, to negative space stencils and embossed images\, Willow will cover multiple strategies for creating precise needle art. Artistic aspirations aside\, we will also discuss how not to lose connection with your living canvas and blend aesthetics into a fun\, satisfying scene. \nPresenter Bio\nWillow is a queer sadomasochistic switch who will never tire of rope\, blood\, or hooks. Equally happy with a goofy\, laugh-out-loud or nail-bitingly intense scene\, kink is a core part of who he is and what he does. During the pandemic\, Willow embraced online education and has garnered an international following on The Willow Show. He has a flair for getting others hooked with his approachable\, engaging\, and always entertaining teaching style. Willow shares his infectious excitement through a wide variety of hands-on classes\, which you can see alongside his other shenanigans on Patreon and Fetlife: https://linktr.ee/TheWillowShow As a medical professional and professional pervert\, he can certainly say: one person’s torture\, is another person’s Tuesday! \n\n**THIS IS AN IN-PERSON EVENT AND WILL NOT BE STREAMED.

SUMMARY:Much Denser Than Bacon:  A Casual Class on Canes and Caning with Pet Emily
DESCRIPTION:Class Description\nAh\, the noble cane. Far greater than a mere stick\, the cane is a superb tool for recreational bottom whackery\, one that can draw out whimpers of fear and squeals of delight with the merest swish through the air. Not as clumsy or random as a paddle; an elegant implement\, for a more perverted age. But for both new and seasoned impact players alike\, the world of canes and caning can often seem intimidating\, incomprehensible\, or just plain snobbish. Let’s address those concerns head-on! Among other topics\, we’ll be covering the different types and categories of canes\, providing ideas of potential caning scenes\, and offering insights into a vast array of caning styles and techniques. Pet Emily will work her little tail off to dispel apprehensions\, to provide reliable knowledge and resources\, and to encourage and empower you to confidently incorporate canes into your play. So\, whether you’re a cane-curious newcomer or a lifelong enthusiast\, this is the class for you! \nPresenter Bio\nPet Emily (she/they) is a trans and non-binary girl-pet-pony-puppy-thingy\, the gleefully collared slave of Chaotic Kat\, and an irrepressibly enthusiastic kinkster who’s been in and around the DC scene for over ten (non-consecutive) years. Of all the naughty things she loves\, caning has always vied for the top spot\, firing up her wicked imagination and filling her head with blush-inducing daydreams long before she ever understood why. While exploring those fantasies in reality\, she’s gained broad knowledge and experience on both sides of the slash and both ends of the cane. As with all the things that bring her joy\, she’s eager to share her passion and knowledge with others\, and she’s looking forward to dropping the third person and engaging with you all directly. Also\, because she’s Pet Emily\, she must now apologize profusely for the cheap shot at paddles in the class description. Paddles are wonderful tools\, her arse-nal is full of ones that she adores\, and you may rest assured that she’ll be in trouble for making such a snarky remark (even in the service of a geeky reference). If anyone needs her\, she’ll be in the corner. \n\nDoors open at 7:30 pm\, class starts at 8:00 pm.\nAll ticket sales are at the door.\nProof of Vaccination will NO LONGER be required.\n\nTickets are $5 for Black Rose Members and Members of Reciprocal Groups with their Membership Card and $10 for non-members. \n\nEmail info@br.org for more information about Black Rose or its events. \nAccessibility accommodations are available upon request to accessibility@br.org. Please give us two weeks’ notice. \nIf you have questions or would like to request a class topic\, please email education@br.org
