ONLINE: High Protocol for D/s with Sinclair Sexsmith
2026-04-28 18:00 - 20:00
Making rules, tasks, and ongoing protocol is one of the cornerstones of D/s dynamics. But it can be daunting to figure out where to start, how to create different structures of protocol for different spaces, and how to maintain the strict container.
We’ll go over some tools that help make protocol easier to experiment with and implement, such as the cartography of control areas, the protocol game, and levels of protocol. Ultimately, protocol is all about creating adjustable, adaptable guidelines that feed the dynamic and enhance D/s headspace. You’ll come away from this discussion with tools and structure to elevate your protocol in any situation.

ONLINE: Badass Boundaries: The Discipline of Power with Buzz Stingyear
2026-04-25 15:00 - 17:00
This is not a healing circle.
This is a standards reset.
Badass Boundaries is for dominant-identifying men who are serious about leading with integrity. True dominance is not chaos, rather it is clarity before intensity. When your protocol is explicit and solid, trust deepens and your authority strengthens.
This course teaches you how to eliminate ambiguity and operate at a higher standard of consent and accountability.
Operational Objectives:
Define the Area of Engagement: Establish boundaries clearly before action begins.
Build Enthusiastic Buy-In: Move beyond reluctant compliance into active participation.
Maintain Signal Integrity: Use communication systems that protect both intensity and safety.
Practice Zero-Defect Accountability: Own every outcome. No excuses. No deflection.
Your word is the contract. Your discipline is the power.
Why Attend: The Tactical Advantage
Ambiguity erodes trust. Precision builds it.
Many consent violations don’t come from malice, but come from assumption, ego, or skipping negotiation. In high-intensity dynamics, this is a liability. When boundaries are vague, leadership becomes fragile.
Consent is not a leash. It is a green light.
When the protocol is clear, action becomes cleaner, safer, and more powerful. Stop guessing and defending yourself. Start leading with confidence and integrity.
PRESENTER:
Buzz_Stingyear is a late-blooming kinkster who grew up in a money-driven, Trump-aligned household. He internalized a rigid worldview that took years of effort to unravel. With a doctorate in Counseling Psychology, he strives to align his personal growth with his training. Entering the public kink community exposed him to the transformative power of feedback, accountability, and consent culture. Behaviors once normalized in his vanilla world were challenged and reexamined. Buzz remains committed to self growth, becoming less reactive and more compassionate, and supporting others in finding connection, safety, and self-awareness within the kink community.

ONLINE: Dressed & UnDressed: Playing With Wardrobe with HG Wyndell
2026-04-22 18:00 - 20:00
Clothing and accessories are a language all on their own. They convey worlds without words, can immerse us in fantasy, can be fun or functional, and can be our practical armor (or advertisement) as we go through our days.
In this class, we will explore why and how we can incorporate clothing into both our play and our kink self-expression. We will examine many of the specific kinds of clothing we can use to enhance our scenes, including costuming, fetishwear, dollification, leather, latex, and other tools. We’ll also explore how we explore our identities with everything from our clothing choices to the hanky code. We’ll wrap up with practical tips for giving and receiving wardrobe service
Themes of accessibility, power, roleplay, service, and practicality will weave throughout the class. Bring your thoughts and questions, and let’s get curious.
PRESENTER:
HG Wyndell is an activist, educator, and Spiritworker who is driven to facilitate accessible ritual spaces for folks seeking access to more deeply nourishing relationships with themselves and others. They are committed to living life through a lens of wonder, and in our experience, they don’t mess around when it comes to embracing the complex beingness of whoever is blessed to be in their presence and consideration. They weave their lived experiences with intentional relationship, genuine gender expression, ceremony, creative arts, chronic illness, and embracing pleasure seamlessly with a whole lot of love and a good bit of magic into the rich curriculum they offer.

ONLINE: Monster Matchmaking: Assessing Compatibility for Emotional Sadomasochism with SuspendDisbelief
2026-04-20 18:00 - 20:00
Who should we trust to (consensually) hurt our feelings? Wait, what even are feelings? In a scarcity mindset, we sometimes focus on the specifics of fulfilling a fantasy and forget to establish whether our scene partner(s) are right for the job. This class zooms in on motivations for and compatibility during emotional sadomasochism from a bottom’s perspective.
SuspendDisbelief applies an academic lens to almost a decade of experience being consensually bullied in public to help fellow masochists gain insight into their play desires.
PRESENTER:
SuspendDisbelief (she/her) is a queer, non-monogamous power exchange and sadomasochism nerd. Her hobby of choice has been getting hurt in public since 2017, but she has been fantasizing about powerlessness and crushing on former boy scouts exclusively for their knowledge of knots for far longer than that. On top of bottoming for power exchange and physical+emotional sadism, she started tying herself in 2019 and swiftly snowballed down the pipeline toward rope topping. She uses the chaos goblin energy bestowed upon her by her ADHD to enhance her teaching and help people like her “get it”. She currently helps facilitate and teaches monthly for Hitchin’ Bitches DC.

ONLINE: Kink, Trauma Play, and Healing: A Research-Informed Deep Dive with Aidan
2026-04-18 11:00 - 14:00
If you have engaged in trauma play in kink, this class gives you a straightforward way to understand what was happening. Many kink practitioners who work with traumatic experiences through kink recognize the territory but often lack the language to describe it. Some leave a scene feeling steadier, while others feel more shaken, largely because no one ever taught them how to name the processes they just went through. People have been working through difficult emotions in kink for a long time, and research is only now beginning to catch up.
This class brings together community insight and current research tidbits to offer a clearer picture of the patterns, mechanics, and meanings people often find in trauma play. Without idealizing or pathologizing the practice, it provides a space to look closely at something many people know intimately and want to finally understand. Join us for a kinky deep-dive, with plenty of time for questions and chit-chat!
PRESENTER:
Aidan Sunassee (he/him) is a certified sexologist, educator, researcher, and active member of the kink community. His facilitation style is trauma-aware, grounded in inclusive practices, and informed by both personal experience and academic research.

Aidan is affiliated with the APA Division 44 Taskforce on Kink and BDSM, serves on the board and research team of TASHRA, and teaches with the Center for Positive Sexuality. His independent research explores how pleasure and power exchange intersect with healing in kink spaces and dynamics. Beyond his research, he has developed and led community education programs on kink, consent, trauma awareness, and ethical non-monogamy.
At the core of his approach is a belief that academic knowledge and lived truth must meet and challenge each other.

ONLINE: Violet Wands 102: Beyond the First Spark with Electro Girly
2026-04-12 14:00 - 16:00
The first spark was only the beginning. In Violet Wand 102, we’ll journey deeper into the electric arts—where tingles become teases, and teases become torment, seduction, and surrender.
This class is about unlocking new ways to play, including:

How to safely play at higher intensities with confidence
Turning your own body into a conductor—electrified caresses, fingertip shocks, kisses, and full-body connection play
Using pervertables and toys with the body contact cable—transforming everyday objects (chains, silverware, brushes, jewelry) into conduits for current
Blending electro with floggers, knives, fire, and sensation toys for layered play
Playing with rhythm, pacing, and psychological build-up to heighten anticipation
Using rhythmic pulses to build suspense—then shattering it with sudden lightning strikes
Blending soft, sensual strokes with sharp, shocking surprises for delicious contrast
Branding with a violet wand—creating temporary or permanent marks and symbols with precision and safety

You’ll learn how to transform your wand into an instrument of suspense and desire—arcing between playful caresses and scenes that leave your partner trembling, laughing, moaning, or begging for more.
PRESENTER:
Electro Girly is an educator, performer, event coordinator, and Pro Dom at Sanctuary Studios in Los Angeles. She specializes in electro play, but her teaching sparks far beyond the electrical thrill. She entered the kink scene in 2017 and began professionally working in the community this year, guiding students through a wide range of sensation and edge play, including electro play, impact, wax, knife, sharps, and fire play—all explored with intense, intertwined sensuality that awakens the senses, heightens presence, and deepens connection.
Her classes blend technical skill, embodied awareness, and fearless curiosity, while cultivating a safe, consent-based, and comfortable space where students are free to push boundaries and explore intensity at their own pace. Questions are welcomed, curiosity is celebrated, and every participant is supported as they discover new edges of sensation, pleasure, and connection. Students leave inspired, empowered, and equipped with practical skills to bring artistry, passion, and transformative energy into their own play.

ONLINE: As You Wish: Exploring Service in Your Relationship (Half-Day Intensive) with Miss Mackenzee
2026-04-11 11:00 - 15:00
Welcome to this transformative extended workshop designed to explore power exchange relationships with a service foundation. Whether you’re a curious newcomer or someone with experience seeking to dive deeper, this class promises to offer fresh insights into these deeply connected dynamics. If you’re uncertain about where to begin, this course will guide you in discovering what you truly desire from the arrangement you seek.
Throughout our time, we’ll engage in meaningful discussions about integrating intentional time into your dynamic, fostering a relationship where the authority figure genuinely appreciates and accepts what the submissive contributes. We will address potential challenges that may arise in service-oriented relationships, like feelings of being taken for granted by the s-type. You’ll receive guidance on nurturing reciprocal relationships, where Dominants also give back to those who provide support.
Live demonstrations and examples will illustrate various manifestations of service, enriching your understanding of how it can look in practice. We recognize the diversity within the BDSM community and that many individuals may not inherently identify as service-oriented however, they still wish to be invaluable to their top or Dominant. If any of this resonates with you, this seminar will equip you with tools to effectively manage your desires and make sure everyone finds fulfillment and purpose.
Delve deeper through conversations including:

Creative methods for incorporating service into your dynamic, infusing it with excitement and innovation
Understanding the responsibilities of all parties involved, fostering mutual respect and communication
Negotiating the terms and nuances of this aspect of your relationship to align with both partners’ desires
Anticipatory service and becoming attuned to your partner’s needs even before they’re expressed
Balancing service responsibilities with other life obligations
Setting healthy boundaries and honoring them
Navigating complications for people pleasers, ensuring personal well-being while striving to serve others
The role of rituals in reinforcing service dynamics
Considerations for chronic illness and neurodivergent folks
Addressing burnout to ensure mental safety
Psychological benefits of service-oriented relationships
Techniques for mindfulness and presence during these activities
How these types of dynamics can show devotion for the D-type

There will be 3.5 hours of teaching plus a 30-minute break in the middle so you can stretch your legs and get something to eat without missing anything! We will be going from beginner to more advanced concepts of service so this workshop is open to everyone and every level of experience.

Feeling social pressure to find someone to connect with?
We can’t promise love, but we can help you with a fun night full of meeting people, a lot of people, fast.
Our purpose is to encourage you to meet new people.
– Find people with similar kinks as yours.
– Find people with whom to explore new kinks.
– Find new friends.
– Find new people to play with.

People will be separated by appetite, either top or bottom. (Switches can pick a side or wait to see what side is needed more.) And then you will get two minutes with each person and a chance to connect afterward.
The evening is about meeting people who complement your kinky appetite, not about identity or gender. The people you meet will be worth meeting, even if they aren’t your appetite.
Once the event has started, we can not add new people, so please be on time.

ONLINE: Dealing with Drop with Miriam Green
2026-04-07 18:00 - 20:00
Sub drop. Top drop. “A case of the Mondays.”
Whatever we call it, post-scene drop is frustrating, irritating, and isolating. It often makes us question — at least in the moment — what was otherwise an awesome scene.
What is this awful mood we fall into after a scene, and what the heck can we do about it?
In this class, Miriam Green will draw on what we know about the neuropsychology of BDSM to help us better understand drop, and build strategies for resilience when we face it. We’ll talk about:

Common misconceptions about drop
What’s going on in the mind, brain and body
Mind-body strategies for before, during and after the scene to help us bounce back
How to change our narrative to avoid making drop worse
The best ways to effectively communicate after a scene — for good scenes and bad

You’ll come away with better self-understanding and a self-care toolkit to draw on when drop comes calling. Join us!
PRESENTER:
Miriam Green has been in the public kink scene for over twenty years in the Austin, Houston, and San Francisco scenes. They teach a series of KINK 101 classes on the SF kink community, BDSM negotiations, and dating while kinky. They also are the owner of Wicked Grounds.

This two-part course meets on both 3/4 and 4/2 at 6pm Pacific each evening.

You’ll leave with:
● A deeper understanding of your energetic blueprint
● Personalized tools to stabilize dominance or submission
● Clear examples of how each element affects power exchange
● A live altar-building demo using all four elements
● An introduction to flower essence support for advanced energetic refinement
Open to all roles, genders, and experience levels. No prior energy work necessary.
Part 2:
This extended version of Elemental Magic in BDSM deepens your connection to the lunar current—showing you how to layer the energy of the Full Moon into your power exchange practice.
Building on the foundational teachings of Elemental Magic 1.0, this class integrates lunar timing into your energetic blueprint, exploring how moon phases can magnify your intention, alignment, and clarity in dominance or submission. Whether you’re leading or yielding, you’ll walk away with tools that strengthen your flow through both chaos and stillness. Includes a live altar demonstration, Full Moon attunement tools, and a guided Q&A integration space.
You’ll leave with:
● A full Elemental Magic overview plus advanced moon-based energetic timing
● Tools to regulate emotional highs and lows within your D/s dynamic

● A live altar-building demo and lunar alignment practices
