SUMMARY:I Want To\, But I Can’t with Meredith
DESCRIPTION:Accessibility accommodations are available upon request to accessibility@br.org. Please give us two weeks’ notice. \n\nClass Description\nIt’s easy to get frustrated when our desires don’t align with our physical or mental capacity. Submissives may long to endure more pain or provide specific acts of service\, dominants may want to top at a certain intensity level or engage in specific forms of control – but chronic illness\, pain\, disability\, fatigue\, neurodivergence\, trauma responses\, and mental health challenges can get in the way. We’ll explore the grief\, shame\, and vulnerability that arises when this happens\, and discuss practical adaptations\, communication strategies\, and creative renegotiation. Attendees will examine internalized ableism and self-induced pressure to “perform\,” and leave with tools to honor ourselves and our partners exactly as we are. \nPresenter Bio\nMeredith has been doing kinky stuff for over 20 years. She identifies as queer\, a masochist\, an s-type\, Leather\, and an educator. She has been on staff for Black Rose since 2015 and is currently the director of the BR Gateway program. \n\nTo minimize disruption\, there will be no admittance after 8:30. \nThis is not a play party. Do not attempt to engage in scenes or solicit others for play\, except for labbing as part of a workshop-style class. \nTickets are $5 for Black Rose Members and Members of Reciprocal Groups with their Membership Card and $10 for non-members. \nAll ticket sales are at the door. \nEmail info@br.org for more information about Black Rose or its events. \nIf you have questions or would like to request a class topic\, please email education@br.org

SUMMARY:Punishment and Protocol with Sir Push Ur Limitz and BiteMeThere
DESCRIPTION:Accessibility accommodations are available upon request to accessibility@br.org. Please give us two weeks’ notice. \n\nClass Description\nWhat happens when protocol is broken? \nWhen expectations are not met\, rules are tested\, or a submissive chooses not to follow an established agreement? In a D/s dynamic\, punishment is not just about correcting behavior. It is about accountability\, authority\, communication\, and understanding the immense responsibility that accompanies power exchange.\n \nPunishment and Protocol takes a real-world look at how punishment can be used within a consensual D/s dynamic and the role protocol plays in creating structure with clarity. Sir PUL and BiteMeThere will discuss setting expectations\, establishing meaningful protocol\, recognizing the difference between a mistake and intentional disobedience\, and deciding when a situation calls for communication\, correction\, consequences\, or punishment. \nThrough open discussion\, relatable scenarios\, and a live demonstration\, we will look at punishment from both sides of the slash. We will talk about what makes discipline effective\, why consistency matters\, and why a Dominant has to be just as intentional about exercising authority as a submissive is about following it. \nPresenter Bio\nI have been known as BiteMeThere for the last 15 years. My path in the kink space has been anything but linear. My journey has largely centered around building communities where people who look like me can thrive. Through my writings\, teaching\, and community engagement\, I continue to explore the intersections of power dynamics\, service\, vulnerability\, and what it means to trust. I value honest conversations that allow room for feedback in its many forms; it will always be my goal to build intentional relationships that propel this community\, our community\, forward in a positive way.I believe that kink is best experienced when all participants are given the space and freedom to be seen\, heard\, respected\, and safe to explore their pleasure. \nWidely known as Sir PUL\, he is a Male Dominant Heterosexual Leather (MDHL f/s) with more than 14 years of experience in the lifestyle. Recognized as a Sensual Sadist\, Daddy\, Protector\, and Educator\, he is deeply committed to mentorship\, communication\, and personal growth within the community. A proud member of the NASSORS Leather Brotherhood\, he also serves as a host and producer for Black & Kinky DC\, helping create safer spaces for education\, exploration\, and fellowship throughout the DMV area. Originally beginning his journey in New York City\, Sir PUL has remained active in community projects and events across the East Coast. Guided by the belief that “none of us is as smart as all of us\,” he continues to prioritize learning\, leadership\, and connection within the lifestyle. \n\nTo minimize disruption\, there will be no admittance after 8:30. \nThis is not a play party. Do not attempt to engage in scenes or solicit others for play\, except for labbing as part of a workshop-style class. \nTickets are $5 for Black Rose Members and Members of Reciprocal Groups with their Membership Card and $10 for non-members. \nAll ticket sales are at the door. \nEmail info@br.org for more information about Black Rose or its events. \nIf you have questions or would like to request a class topic\, please email education@br.org
