Please join us on June 13th from 7:30pm ET to 10:00 PM ET for the Black Rose’s Tuesday Education Series: Class: Electro: The Magic of the Violet Wand with Dara
Class Description
Sparks fly in this class targeted mostly at beginners to electro play. It ain’t just about glass on your ass! Centering around safety and technique, the focus will be on using the violet wand and stretching the imagination with demonstrations of the wand’s wide variety of sensations from the sensual to the sadistic.
Presenter Bio
Dara, the Electro Khaleesi, is a sensual sadist, Domme, and a little. She has been in the BDSM lifestyle for 20 years and her specialty is sensual and sadistic electro play, but works within a variety of kinks and fetishes. A member of the International Violet Wand Guild with over 8 years’ experience with the intensities and variations of electro play, Dara offers private electro sessions and lessons out of her home, and demos at parties and kink events in the DC metro area. To her, electro is not just a kink, it is a performance. She is co-host of Pink Kink, the podcast where we talk about the pretty, twisted side of kink. She also hosts Little and Pet parties for her local littles group at her home with her Daddy/husband.

BR Gateway - June 2023
2023-06-08 19:45 - 21:30 | The Crucible, 412 V St NE, Washington, DC, United States
Due to circumstances beyond Black Rose’s control, the BR Gateway program scheduled for June 8 has been cancelled. We will resume our normal schedule of BR Gateway presentations in July.
Everything below is for archive purposes only.

Black Rose (BR) Gateway is a great way to get a lot of information about the local kink community before you commit any unintentional faux pax because everyone (except you) knew about the community and social expectations.
We cover topics ranging from from Consent to Privacy, Negotiations to Aftercare, and ensure that everyone is aware of our aggressive stand against certain types of behaviors. You can learn more about what you can expect from BR Gateway by reading:

Gateway Attendee FAQ

BR Gateway and Dungeon 101 work together like a lecture/lab combination class; you can get a lot from attending either one, but you can get a lot more by attending both.
Gateway is in person at The Crucible. Proof of primary vaccination status is REQUIRED and masks are strongly encouraged (this is current in 2023).

BR Gateway entry is no longer available through Eventbrite, but only available for purchase at the door; Dungeon 101 tickets are the same. You cannot purchase D101 entry at BR Gateway.
ASL Interpreters are available upon request to accessibility@br.org. Please give us two weeks notice.

Class Description
How much lube do I buy? Where do people park? Should I serve quiche? If attending a sex party is scary, hosting one can be downright terrifying! Come learn and exchange some tips, tricks, and talents that will make your next naked lunch one for the ages! We’ll cover the who, how, and why of making sex parties safer, fun-er, and exciting-erer! This is a Slutty Socratic Method workshop, so be prepared to trade tips, share thoughts, and ask questions at your comfort level!
Presenter Bio
“WhosThatBear” is an intellectually curious kinkster who’s perpetually excited for whatever is around the next bend. He thrives in an environment where authenticity comes first and folks work as hard at taking care of themselves as they do everyone around them. Safe comes before sexy, in the dictionary and life. He’s been an event host for over a decade as of 2023 and learned along the way that if you start with kindness and inclusivity; the rest falls into place. An engineer and former improv comedian; he fucks with electricity, unreasonably powerful vibrators, impact, wax, creative predicaments, and excellent communication skills.
