Precipice: Extreme BDSM Edge Play
This workshop is sold out. Stefanos and Shay are teaching two other classes, It's A Trap: Playful Scenes and Non-bondage Predicaments and In Your Place: Headspace for Power Exchange.
WARNING: This workshop covers difficult and emotional charged subject matter.
Edge Play is a subjective term for activities with higher than average risk of short or long term health or psychological consequences.
Violent rape, interrogation, assault, humiliation, terror… playing on the brink can be vastly rewarding, but also psychologically and physically dangerous (which is of course part of the appeal). Stefanos & Shay will demonstrate & discuss types of edge play scenes, negotiation & aftercare for this type of play, and the how & why of taking yourself (and your partner/s) to the limit… and then pulling them (and yourself) back. There will be numerous demos, including emotional edge play, rape, gun play, use of “trigger words,” realistic and personal portrayal of domestic abuse, and rough body play, as well as participatory discussion about “soft limits” and risk awareness in the context of edge play. Stefanos & Shay emphasize using edge play for catharsis and empowerment, finishing with a personally vulnerable demonstration. This class is not for beginners and contains content that many participants find triggering (often in unexpected ways).
Cost at the door: $30.
Max of 20 attendees.
