SUMMARY:Chain Bondage For Beginners with CTW and Mister
DESCRIPTION:Class Description\nChains are a kink staple that evoke images of dungeons and being trapped\, feelings of cold and hard restraint\, and power and control. This class is a discussion of risks and safety using chains for bondage\, a demonstration of various metal connectors\, how to maintain tension and make single columns using chain\, a demonstration of a simple chest and hip harness with removal\, all followed by open labbing time for attendees to play with chains. Great for self- and partnered-bondage participants and absolute beginners! Participants are welcome to bring their own chain; the presenters will also have plastic chain available to borrow to practice with. \nPresenter Bio\nCecilia T. Winters (‘CTW’ – She/Her) is your typical queer Millennial. Born at the start of the internet age\, she has always benefited from information at her fingertips. She identifies as bisexual and ethically non-monogamous. She has served as a dungeon and playspace monitor\, a demo top for a number of local and national kink events\, and as a presenter. Her non-kink interests include reading\, making lists\, watching early 2000s crime dramas\, and learning about ancient human cultures. \nFischer Garrett (‘Mister’ – He/Him) is a bisexual\, polyamorous top. His time spent in the lifestyle has led him through a journey of self discovery\, from once being totally monogamous to being a relationship anarchist; from wanting nothing to do with bondage to developing a way to practice bondage in a relatively unperformed and under-documented fashion. In the past several years he has volunteered for larger kink events as a member of a consent incident response team\, a dungeon/playspace monitor\, and recently as a presenter. He is a huge fan of costumes and masks\, and it is not unusual to know that he is around but often in clever and sometimes strange disguises. Together they are co-authors of the book\, The Art of Chain: A Guide to Steel Restraint (Mystic Productions Press\, 2022). \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 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:Tiny Terrors: Getting BIG Sensations from Small Needles!
DESCRIPTION:Class Description\nThere is a trend in the sharps community to always push towards larger gauges and lots of them (Willow & Marti do love a good 8g hook!) but this approach can lack nuance. \nWillow will cover considerations for using short and more flexible hypodermic needles and lancets. There will be some discussion of why and how you might choose to play with little pricks\, plus a thorough demo\, to really drive the point home. \nPain is inevitable\, but suffering requires a lot less steel than you might imagine. With thoughtful placement and vicious intent\, the masochists in your life will never underestimate a 30g again! \nPresenter Bio\nMarti & Willow are a pair of queer\, sadomasochistic switches with a penchant for gleeful scenes which will make your toes curl! With over two decades of combined expertise\, they make a formidable team specializing in rope\, sharps\, and gross play. \nMarti has been an organizer\, volunteer\, and presenter all her kink life. Masochism is her love language and she is her own biggest sadist. “No Thank You” usually means you are on the right path! \nWillow has garnered an international following with his approachable\, engaging\, and always entertaining teaching style. Kink is a core part of who he is and what he does\, followed closely by ethical sluttery and a love of learning. \nAs a medical professional and professional pervert\, they 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. YOU MUST ATTEND IN PERSON. **\nAll ticket sales are at the door.\nProof of Vaccination will 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.
