SUMMARY:ONLINE: Negotiation Skills for subs & Bottoms with Faun
DESCRIPTION:Whether you’re brand-spanking new to the scene\, or you’ve been involved for years\, negotiating a new scene or with a new partner can be a daunting concept for kinky submissives and anyone on the lower side of the D/s slash. \nIn this workshop led by a sub with extensive experience Domming\, we’ll examine the do’s and don’ts of effective negotiating communication\, how to navigate the scene\, ways to identify important traits in compatible play partners\, and guide kinksters of all levels and experiences to co-creating the scenes they’ve always wanted to have! \nThere will also be a live demonstration of pick-up play negotiation and an open Q&A at the end. \nPRESENTER: \nFaun (he/him) is a smut writer and kink educator from the Pacific Northwest.

One day\, he stumbled upon a website chock full of hypnokinky stories\, and the rest is history. Now\, he hopes to help others find their own niche in the kink community by sharing what he’s learned through study and experience. You can find him on AO3 and tumblr as spiraledfaun\, and on Fet as deerfaun. \nTICKETING: \nhttps://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/1b04693c63

SUMMARY:ONLINE: High Protocol for D/s with Sinclair Sexsmith
DESCRIPTION: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. \nWe’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. \nPRESENTER: \nSINCLAIR SEXSMITH (they/them) is a queer trans butch\, a leather dominant\, and a writer\, focusing on individual\, interpersonal\, and institutional systems of power. They study dominance and submission\, social & restorative justice\, the energetic body\, trauma\, and transformation. They have been in the kink communities since 1999\, and orchestrate transformative kink scenes through written erotica and ritual practice. They actively explore the philosophies of power exchange and the practicalities of sustainable\, long term D/s. As a leather community member\, titleholder\, and organizer\, Sinclair has presented and performed 200+ times at 75+ venues\, including International Ms. Leather\, Dark Odyssey\, SXSW\, Harvard\, and Oz Kink Fest. Their short story collection\, Sweet & Rough: Queer Kink Erotica\, was a 2016 finalist for a Lambda Literary Award\, and they have edited 7 queer erotica anthologies; their latest book is Daddy4Daddy: Queer Kink Erotica.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Seducing Your sub: How to Create Erotic Tension & Keep Your sub Coming Back For More with Marla Renee Stewart
DESCRIPTION:If you’ve been in the D/s world\, you know that some subs can be finicky on their search for the right Dominant.

Whether you are a beginner or a professional\, this will help you run the long (and successful) game when it comes to your kinky endeavors. This workshop is for every gender identity and sexual orientation. \nPRESENTER: \nMarla Renee Stewart\, MA\, CSE (she/her) is a 3x award-winning sexologist\, author\, and sexual strategist at Velvet Lips Sex Education. With over two decades in kink\, Miss Marla proudly identifies as a sensual sadist and professional top\, specializing in techniques such as impact play\, breath play\, dirty talk\, and sensual genital torment. Her work centers on empowering erotic autonomy and dismantling sexual shame—especially for Black\, queer\, and kinky communities. As Co-Founder of the Sex Down South Conference\, Marla co-created the largest BIPOC dungeon in the world\, offering a transformative space for exploration and healing. She also trains therapists\, counselors\, and educators in understanding and supporting the unique needs of Black queer and kinky relationships with cultural competency and care. Through her workshops\, writings\, and fierce advocacy\, Marla continues to lead the movement for sexual liberation with unflinching power and sensuality. \nTICKETING: \nThe regular ticket is $30.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Listening with Empathy with Master Retro Bella
DESCRIPTION:One of the most common traits among failed scenes\, negotiations\, and contract discussions is misunderstanding the intent behind a verbal statement.

Currently\, Master Retro Bella curates the Latinx Queer Chronicles on Substack\, which showcases the intersectionality of queerness and Latinidad. \nTICKETING: \n$30 suggested.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Strangers in the Night: Fray Sexuality\, Relationships & YOU! with Lady V
DESCRIPTION:Fray Sexuality is often described as an attraction to new and/or unfamiliar people\, often with little to no interpersonal connection previously. \nBeing Fray Sexual doesn’t mean you can’t have or maintain relationships.

Recording available for 7 days! \nPRESENTER: \n@The_Lady_V (she/her) is a spiritually & socioculturally driven sex-positive educator\, community organizer & pro domina. \nUsing her background in film\, Lady V is able to use the power of improv to switch on a dime.
