ONLINE: Daddy Issues: Daddy Dynamics & You A class with Lady V
2026-06-21 11:00 - 13:00
NOTE: Workshop is accessible to ALL genders of Daddy & sides of the slash….yes, even subby daddies. We <3 submissive & switchy daddies. This workshop is not necessarily geared towards ageplay or ABDL, but inclusive of it.

Daddy, don’t stop! No, seriously, dude.
Learn about Daddy Dynamics in this workshop dedicated to the Daddy who understands from the inside & out (& its not just because their fist is inside me).
What are Daddy Dynamics?
A Daddy dynamic is a relationship or short-term play where one player is “Daddy” & typically plays a parental or semi-nurturing type figure within the scene or short to long-term dynamics.
“Daddy” dynamics are HIGHLY influenced by the people involved & the interests in their preferred types of play. Daddies can be scary sadists to submissive sweethearts who want to please their Princex, Princes, & Princesses.
Daddy Dynamics can be everything from light & fluffy to dark & demented…maybe even a mix of both depending on your tastes!
In this class, we’ll dive into:

Figuring out what kind of archetype resonates with you as a Daddy or finding the right Daddy(s)
Figuring out what type of dynamic works best (ex. Daddy Dom/little, Princex/daddy sub, etc.)
Pickup play or short-term dynamics & integrating Daddy elements into play
Keeping things fresh & healthy in long-term Daddy dynamics
How to heal after a dynamic has ended
Including others into dynamics such as other submissives, Princexes, & other Care Givers.
How any gender can be “Daddy” & what it means to be “Daddy” to someone

Why Learn From Lady V?
Lady V has been in & out of Daddy/girl dynamics for the last several years. While once swearing up & down she could never call a man “Daddy”, now EVERYONE’S HER DADDY.
Many of her dynamics have been everything from long term relationships (LTRs) to occasional play partners to pick up play. Some include submissive daddies to Daddies with strong backhands.
While not currently in a Daddy dynamic, Lady V still plays with DD/lg & Princess/daddy sub dynamics as a Pro Domme & a lifestyle switch.

DISCLAIMER: We do not advocate for incest or anything in a similar vein. This is only roleplay between consenting adults. Also, not all of us have Daddy issues because of our biological Fathers, but thanks for assuming. 🖤
PRESENTER:
Lady V (she/her) is a spiritually & socioculturally driven sex-positive educator, community organizer, lifestyle switch & pro dominatrix.

The world over, body modification is used as a way to express identity – whether that is self-identity, cultural (or subcultural) affiliation, milestones, political views, or spiritual connections. We have all made modifications to live our lives, such as having a specific hair style to blend in with our peer circles or dressing in a certain way. We will look at the wide variety of body modifications available today from henna/mehndi to hook suspension, tattoos to ritual jewelry, stage makeup to genital reconstruction surgery, breast augmentation to flesh removal. We will also discuss the energy inherent in each type of modification, issues of cultural appropriation, and the social implications of body modification. Let’s examine why every act of modifying our flesh can be sacred, and every act can be profane – no matter the type of alteration, no matter the transformation.
PRESENTER:

SF: Kinky Speed Friending with PsychoKitty
2026-07-08 19:00 - 21:00 | Trellis Coworking and Events, 981 Mission St, San Francisco, CA, 94103, United States
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.

PRESENTER:
Ryan “Psychokitty” has been helping people connect with similar events for over a decade, from the old Shibaricon in Chicago to Dark Odyssey: Surrender, or hosting events at the SF Citadel, Catalyst, and of course Wicked Grounds.

ACCESS:
In SF, this event will be held at Trellis. Please note that doors will close quickly so we recommend arriving 15 minutes before the event starts for check-in.
We cannot admit anyone after about 7:10 (once the event has begun), so please plan accordingly! Late arrivals cannot be refunded.

Booty Bomb! is a class about making anal prep easy & help you skip an enema.
Join anal enthusiast & professional dominatrix, Lady V, in talking about making your anal prep & play easier mentally & physically.

We’ll flush out the details on:

The digestive system & timing
Integrating D/s & fetishism into prep routine
Meal ideas, recipes & food to avoid
Quick tips, somatic check ins, & MORE!

Don’t miss out on making boom-boom because you didn’t make a boom-boom.

ONLINE: Bottoming Safety 201: Negotiating Edgeplay Safely as a Bottom or Submissive with Laura Boyle of ReadyforPolyamory
2026-07-13 18:00 - 20:00
Most folks, when they enter a local scene or join a dungeon space, are required to take a basic negotiation class. These classes seldom touch on how to negotiate more intense scenes – or assume that one will automatically have gained the confidence and communication skills to express boundaries while negotiating a scene near the edge of one’s comfort level.
This class will address generally asserting boundaries with a top or dominant from a bottoming or submissive role; but also include safety issues to be aware of some of the most popular “edgy” play – understanding that one person’s edge is another’s bread and butter, so there is no way for the class to be comprehensive for everyone in that.
This class explicitly covers and includes handout resources and links for information on negotiation for knife play, breath play, a variety of fear play, fire, sadistic floor rope, suspension, and wax; and sometimes more by discussion within the class group.
PRESENTER:
Laura Boyle is a writer, polyamorist, and educator who has been teaching classes on polyamory, sexuality, boundaries, kink, and the intersection of those on a local level and at conventions since 2018. She is the author of Ready for Polyamory: A Pragmatic Guide to Consensual Non-Monogamy. After more than 15 years in consensually non-monogamous relationships, in polycules that have ranged from temporarily closed Vs to constellations whose shapes are increasingly indescribable depending on which relationships folks consider worth including, she loves to share practical information learned from years of fixing her own mistakes and missteps.

ONLINE: BDSM Negotiation: From Awkward to Awesome with Miriam Green
2026-07-14 18:00 - 20:00
Ever felt that pre-scene flutter of nerves when it comes to expressing your boundaries or deepest desires? You’re not alone. But being honest about your desires and voicing them out loud is critical for safe, hot scenes — and it’s what experienced players will expect from you.
Effective kink negotiation isn’t always intuitive, especially when you’re just starting out. But it can be learned, and we’re going to do just that.
This Kink 101 session is designed to transform hesitant conversations into confident, connection-building dialogues. You’ll walk away with practical tools to ask for exactly what you want, making your play hotter, safer, and incredibly fun.
We’ll explore:

Negotiation styles for your own style and voice
Mastering pre-play agreements that set the stage for thrilling scenes
How to negotiate without breaking the mood
Nailing communication during and after the scene
How to adapt scene negotiations within existing BDSM relationships
This workshop welcomes all genders, orientations, and dynamic styles

Drawing on the psychology of peak experiences, we’ll learn how to collaborate as partners, using negotiation not as a chore, but as a powerful act of co-creation. Whether you’re curious about kink, a relative newcomer, or a seasoned kinkster looking to sharpen your communication, you’ll walk away with new perspectives and skills.
Get ready to navigate your desires with a newfound swagger and make every negotiation count!
PRESENTER:
Miriam Green (they/them) has been active in the public kink scene for over twenty years and an instructor for more than twelve, focusing on communication skills, impact play, and advanced kink techniques.

ONLINE: Strategies For Switching: Fulfilling Your Diverse Desires with Lee Harrington
2026-07-15 18:00 - 20:00
The term “switch” has a lot of baggage attached to it in a polarized BDSM community, where you are expected to be a Top or a Bottom, a Master or a Slave – but there are a thousand reasons why many of us feel a calling to cross over from time to time – while others are born to ride a wide variety of sides of their souls.
We will be addressing why people switch (Tops who want to know what it feels like, Slaves who want to serve masochistic Masters, greedy versatile pigs who want it all), strategies to finding play partners or relationship structures (one partner many roles, play partners outside of monogamous relationships, polyamory, swinging, open relationships, self-play), and create ways to check in with ourselves about what our own needs are.
Let’s look at switching, and see what notions we are ready to embrace, and which need to be switched around.
PRESENTER:
Lee Harrington is an internationally known spiritual and erotic authenticity educator, gender explorer, eclectic artist and award-winning author and editor on erotic and sacred experience. He’s been traveling the globe teaching and talking about sexuality, psychology, faith and desire, and believes you deserve passion and connection in your life.

LA: Sex Magick for Kinksters (Partnered Magick) ​with Miriam BatAsherah Green
2026-07-18 12:00 - 14:00
​The traditional definition of magick is “the art and science of changing consciousness in conformity with Will.” We could also say it’s a way of moving and transforming energy and perception. In terms of our life work, magick is a set of tools that allows us to get out of our own way to more effectively do our work in the world.
​The magickian’s tool kit includes techniques such as ecstatic trance, symbolic ritual, polarity work, breathing techniques, sensual immersion, and more. The sex magickian specifically works with the energies raised in solo or partnered play as fuel for their spellwork or life Work.
​Those tools should seem very familiar to us kinksters. You may not be a magickian, but most of us are playing around in the magickian’s tool kit.
​This class will explore some basic information on how to understand the potent energies invoked in D/s and S/m. We’ll talk about the nature of the soul, how to engage the deeper mind, creating a safe container for a scene, and what one can do with the energies we raise in BDSM play. Whether you believe in magick, want to believe in magick, or think this is all just a fun metaphor for how the mind works, you are sure to gain new tools and perspectives on BDSM play by attending this class.

Are you called to house top and share your skills, but not sure where to start? Perhaps you’re already house topping but want to have better experiences not just for your bottoms but for yourself! Maybe you’ve been puzzled by some key challenges to communicating and gliding into these mini-scenes and want to learn key techniques to make house topping fun again!
We’ll cover:

Speed negotiations for fast & safe play
Key questions to maintain clear communication through the scene
How to calibrate topping to difference levels of experience
Maintaining boundaries & personal standards in the face of others’ expectations
Being an ethical psychopomp for new players

Level: Advanced.
This class is designed for three main audiences: People who are new to house topping and want to make this form of edutainment fun for everyone; people who have experience house topping and want to get even better at going as deeply as this format allows while acting ethically and protecting boundaries for self and others; and party organizers who want to offer safe, fun and ethical house topping & sampler party experiences in our communities.
While we’ll be focused on the experience of the more common “house top,” we’ll also cover information that will be of use to house bottoms.
This class is also a good fit for anyone who works with demo bottoms.
