Ego, Death, and Ego Death in BDSM

For the philosophical and personal growth-minded kinkster, this fascinating new workshop with Headmistress Shahrazad will explore BDSM in light of the concepts of ego as a necessary psychological function, death as a metaphor for change and transformation, and ego death as a phase in one’s inner journey where one’s subjective identity is temporarily lost. We will also examine the metaphor of the Hero’s Journey and use it as inspiration to guide our kink explorations towards helping us reach our fullest potential as human (and spiritual) beings.

Brat Play 101

"Brats” often get a bad rap in the BDSM scene, seemingly causing many a Dominant to pull their hair out in frustration. The reason is often because brats are viewed as disobedient or rude submissives instead of as a unique sub-category of bottom requiring a completely different approach. This workshop is dedicated to helping folks appreciate and learn how to enjoy this style of play. We will delve into what brat play is and isn’t, the underlying motivations for being a brat, how to know if your submissive style is “bratty”, what forms of dominance are most compatible, the biggest mistakes dominants make when playing with brats, how to wind down a bratting scene, and specific aftercare needs for both the top and the bottom.

Achieving the Perfect Mindfuck

Many kinksters are into the thrill that comes from experiencing the combination of fear, suspense and arousal, while also trusting that the person you are playing with is keeping you safe. This interactive and hilarious class will give you tons of ideas for hot ways in which you can consensually and safely “mindfuck” your play partner in a BDSM scene, emphasizing trust-building, psychological and physical safety and the unique process of negotiating something that will be an “unknown” to the submissive.

Dirty Talk 101

Skillful, hot, and conscious dirty talk is a pretty rare thing to come by– even those who are otherwise confident and articulate can face road blocks when it comes to taking those skills into a scene. Once you get the hang of it, dirty talk can easily become one of the most versatile, fun, and sexy skills in your kinky toolbox. In this 2 hour intensive we will be delving into the psychological and emotional aspects of dirty talk, from Dominant and submissive perspectives. Through building confidence and engaging with your partner's desires, we will learn how to turn your vocabulary into something just as stimulating as the caress of leather cuffs or the sting of a paddle.

Techniques for Coaching Bottoms Through Pain Play

Many Dominants are sadists and enjoy subjecting their submissives to painful sensations, and many submissives are masochists and enjoy receiving those sensations. This practical workshop will highlight the ten most important psychological and physiological factors that impact a bottom’s ability to process pain, and then teach you fourteen easy pain processing techniques that can be employed by the Top and/or bottom to take your sadomasochistic scenes to the next level of intensity while ensuring enjoyment, presence, and safety.

Old School Discipline

Discipline techniques that used to be employed in domestic or school settings (and which might now be considered ‘old fashioned’) can still have tremendous application within consensual power exchange dynamics. Whether it is a desire to revisit past experiences on our own terms, or simply the love of authentic historical methods, there are ways to incorporate these techniques safely and sanely into our play. This workshop will give historical background on spanking, mouth soaping, line writing, figging, and kneeling on rice, and then will teach you how to administer each safely within a kink context.

Using BDSM for Personal Healing

Within many esoteric frameworks, water corresponds to our emotions, earth to our bodies, air to our minds, and fire to our spirits. This unique workshop will begin by exploring the four elements as they exist within you, both in balance and out of balance, and what that might look like for you on a practical level. Shahrazad will then present an original teaching on the elemental correspondences of different kinds of kink/fetish/SM play. Finally we’ll put everything together so that you learn how to 1) identify an imbalance in yourself or your partner and 2) mindfully harness the water, air, earth or fire within a scene of your choosing, to 3) create opportunities for deep personal transformation and healing for yourself or others.

Navigating BDSM With PTSD/C-PTSD

A common myth about BDSM is that it is a dysfunctional form of sexuality that emerges out of past trauma. While that is patently untrue, there are a lot of kinksters with trauma histories who find it hard to talk about their BDSM fantasies, either because they don’t want people to assume a correlation between the two, or because they don’t know how to navigate the minefield between triggers and desired experiences. This workshop will address the unique challenges of exploring kink when you suffer from PTSD or C-PTSD, giving you the tools and knowledge you need to explore in a supported way while sparing your nervous system further stress. We will also dedicate a portion of the workshop to exploring the oft controversial decision to use BDSM to re-create traumatic circumstances from the past as part of the healing journey.

BDSM Domination And The Ethical Use Of Power

Join Headmistress Shahrazad for a unique inquiry into the ethical use of power within the practice of BDSM Domination (both Pro and Lifestyle).

Intro To Protocol

Protocol are the ritualized rules and actions that Dominants and submissives co-create together, symbolically representing the consensual exchange of power. The enactment of them becomes the structure and embodiment of your alternate D/s reality.

This class will provide you with a strong foundational way of approaching scene-craft that you’ll be able to take with you into any further BDSM play you choose to do. Scenes will be broken down into key elements, with a focus on shifting realities, knowing emotional hot buttons, infusing symbols with meaning, being risk-aware, setting clear parameters of engagement, understanding the psychology, aligning energies to a common purpose, and more!

Family-ish Dynamics: Age Play and Taboo

Age Play and taboo familial/incestuous themes are a cornerstone of a LOT of people’s kink fantasies and power exchange play dynamics. Don’t believe me? Take a peek at the 5 most commonly watched porn themes in North America, and you’ll see keywords like “step-sister”, “mommy-daughter”, and so on. This workshop will endeavour to help you to rest easy knowing that your interest in age play has nothing to do with your actual real-life family. Together, we’ll explore all the facets of this taboo kink, covering definitions, roles, psychology, scene play, and both sexual and non-sexual age-based fantasy relationship structures. We will also unpack some of the most common myths about incest fantasy play and look at how to explore it within risk-aware parameters.
