Flagellation I: Whipping for Beginners

Through a variety of practical excercises we will give you a feeling for the use of different whips. Only the one who knows what it feels like to be whipped, is able to use a whip responsibly.
Where can I hit with diffent whips? How strong can I whip without leaving traces? Or in order to leave traces!
We want to give answers to common questions, like:
- Where to get a whip?
- How to transport the whip without having to tell the neighbours "I have a pony"?
- How to make your own whip?

 

 

Flagellation II: for the Advanced

This workshop is explicitly for experienced sadists or/and masochists, who want to carry out a session in a safe but public environment. What kind of emotions are triggered by physical pain? What are my limits? How do I perceive my Hitting- or Receiving- Persona? What kind of images and thoughts are coming up?
We will organize several 30- minute-sessions to approach these and other questions regarding our practical experiences. There will be time for discussion and exchange afterwards.
As we aim for a very intense atmosphere, the number of participants wil be limited.

Please bring a partner and your own whips, if possible!

 

 

Spanking, Canes and Crops

In Spanking as well as Caning the preferred "educational surface" is the bottom.
Spanking (slapping with the hand) is one of the safest ways to start learning about hitting, because the hand of the top also feels pain. For that reason overdoing it is rare.
The classic instrument for punishment in school (as some of you might still remember) has found its way into the sadomasochistic subculture. Besides "lust and pain play", the cane is usually used in role playing such as parent / child or teacher / pupil.

In this workshops we will talk about safety aspects and give answers to the question "What makes these games so interesting?"
