Wicked Grounds Presents: SpankLab!
A peer-led skill share to explore impact play
Hosted by @impossiblepain
SpankLab is something like a rope jam for impact play. We build community connections while learning skills from each other in a lighthearted, low-pressure space. SpankLab welcomes people new to the scene or curious about impact play, as well as experienced players looking to hone or expand their bottoming and topping skills. Bring toys if you have them, and wear whatever you like! @impossiblepain will be available throughout the event to monitor for safe play and as a resource for questions and hands-on instruction.
7 to 7:15: Impact play demo (different demo monthly!)
7:15: DOORS CLOSE
7:15-7:30: Review of rules and guidelines, toys show-and-tell
7:30-9: Socialize, observe, and practice impact play!

ONLINE: Impact Play 101: A Blind Top’s Perspective with Mistress Jaiyde
2025-07-03 18:00 - 20:00 | CA
Impact play is a consensual BDSM activity that involves hitting/striking another human being. Many people use this form of play for sexual gratification or in power exchange, but others use it for different reasons, including connection and catharsis. Examples of this include slapping, punching, kicking, spanking, caning, and flogging.
This is a beginners guide to impact play, and a core pillar of BDSM is safety. Topics will include but are not limited to:
• the definition of impact play
• anatomy of the human body and safety/first aid
• impact play techniques
• how to create an impact play scene.
I will also share my experiences as a blind dominant and impact player. So, let’s dive into the wonderful world of impact play.
PRESENTER:
Mistress Jaiyde (she/her) is passionate about the disability/LGBTQ communities, mental health, homelessness among LGBTQ youth, and alternative lifestyles. Born in Ohio and completely blind, she has never allowed her disability to hinder her. Jaiyde is the author of nine books within the genres of erotic and LGBTQ romance, containing themes of disability representation, tough subjects, and happily-ever-after’s. She is also the founder of #DisabledAndKinky, a virtual community of enthusiasts who are passionate about disability and alternative lifestyles.
In her free time, Jaiyde can be found reading, creating/listening to music, cooking/baking, or watching soap operas/cartoons. Her motto is ”inability, not disability”.
