SUMMARY:BR Gateway - May 2024
DESCRIPTION: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. \nWe 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: \n\n\n\n\n\nThinking about attending Black Rose Gateway (overview of the program)\nGateway Attendee FAQ\n\n\n\n\n\nBR 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. \nGateway is in person at The Crucible.  \n\nBR Gateway entry is only available for purchase at the door; Dungeon 101 tickets are the same. You cannot purchase D101 entry at BR Gateway. \nASL Interpreters are available upon request to accessibility@br.org. Please give us two weeks notice. \nEmail gateway@br.org for more information about this program\, or info@br.org for more information about Black Rose or its other events.

SUMMARY:D/s Discussion Group: Expectations in Power Exchange
DESCRIPTION:RSVP on Fet now! \nCome one and all to a group for the discussion of any and all topics D and s. This group is intended to be a resource for people of all levels of experience and\, as such\, everyone is encouraged to attend. Please bring all questions you may have about D/s\, M/s\, rituals\, victuals\, brats\, splats\, and mats. \nThe topic of tonight’s discussion is Expectations and Measures of Success in D/s. Power exchange in particular is one of those things people think they can be “bad at”. But how do you get good? What does “good” even mean? Although there is a topic for the discussion\, this group is meant to be a place for sharing and we will not be strict about keeping to the topic. \nYou are free to arrive anytime after 6:30. Before the discussion starts\, there will be a chance to mingle and eat dinner. Please bring your own food or snacks if you want. Discussion will begin at 7:00. \nFor this event\, we will be hosting in our home in Arlington\, specifically West Arlington\, roughly 3 blocks from East Falls Church Metro. Parking is abundant but fills quickly in the evening. We will give the address to those who RSVP “yes” (or contact ds@br.org).

SUMMARY:Bound in a Minute with Willow
DESCRIPTION:Class Description\nFrom a cuff to a corset\, this class is the answer for anyone who’s ever complained that rope bondage takes too long. Willow will discuss ways to increase your efficiency in motion and teach specific patterns to capture your partner that are quick and devilishly effective! This class can cover\, sadistic\, structural\, and/or decorative ties\, depending on the participants’ interests. \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 \nAs a medical professional and professional pervert\, he can certainly say: one person’s torture\, is another person’s Tuesday!\n\n\nAll ticket sales are at the door.\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:Tongue and Mouth Torture with Carmen Monoxide
DESCRIPTION:Class Description\nWe tend to think of our mouths in terms of what they can do to other people. However\, the plethora of nerve endings and variety of tissues and textures make the mouth just as wonderful a target for sadism as the breasts or genitals. You’ll learn oral anatomy\, bondage\, impact\, fear play\, medical/blood play\, and other creative forms of oral sadism in this class. We then combine the skills in a delightfully depraved mini-scene to help get your creative juices flowing! Please note: there will be an announcement before we transition into medical and blood play so those who prefer not to see that portion of the class may step away. We will also announce when that segment is ending so that anyone who has departed can return for the scene and Q&A! \nPresenter Bio\n\nA former teacher with a lifelong passion for the bizarre and filthy\, Carmen Monoxide (she/her) also works as a kink professional\, event organizer\, sex educator\, and relationship coach. She has presented for small\, medium\, and large events across North America. She founded Femme Fatale\, a kink event company\, and throws monthly parties in the Washington\, DC area. She sometimes takes her clothes off and performs onstage and on camera\, and is passionate about helping people overcome fear and shame in order to have authentic\, fulfilling\, sexy experiences. \n\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. \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:New and Curious Kinksters
DESCRIPTION:Black Rose’s New and Curious Kinksters (or NaCK)\, is a discussion group designed for people who are new(ish) to the scene. While we highly recommend all new kinksters check out Gateway (the first/last Thursday of each month – always the day before D101) and Dungeon 101 (the first Friday of each month) and come with questions about their experiences\, it is not required\, and we welcome anyone new to kink. Please note NaCK is for asking questions\, there will be no presentation or monologuing. \nWe meet the 4th Thursday of the month from 6:30 to 8:00pm. We are going to try out having virtual NaCK. I know many of us have Zoom fatigue\, but this is a more responsible approach. We’ll chat about whatever comes up – everything from “what do I wear to the club?” to “I had this great scene\, but this part didn’t go well. What do you suggest?” NaCK has a rotating group of experienced kinksters come in to answer questions\, so the discussion is always a little bit different\, and we aim to provide a variety of answers from different D/s roles\, genders\, races\, and backgrounds. \nIf you are still in the beginning of your kink journey\, we hope you’ll come join us to ask questions and share advice. We’d love to have you!
