When is the perfect time to use your teeth to draw the reaction you're looking for? How to grab a partner and where to give sensation and/or assert dominance and control. How do you hit your partner and know you're not hitting the wrong spot? You’ll learn how to hit someone harder if bottom is larger and/or stronger than the Top and how to properly pull a punch if a Top is larger or stronger than the bottom. This class will be heald in the Yardarm.

Rope is not always sensual touch and soft music. Sometimes it's control and energy, it's capture and dominance. We will share some ways to create this space in your tying. Note this class will involve elements of rough body play which is another PRICK type of play so be sure both you and your bottom are aware and consenting prior to this class. This is a hands on class but at any point you can choose to simply observe. Each exercise will be discussed and demo'd then participants will do them, if you're a beginner you will get rope handling skills that will serve you well as you go on in your rope journey. If you're a more advanced rigger this will be a chance to improve the skills you have and perhaps unlearn some bad habits. This will be a beginning to intermediate level class held in the Yardarm. What to bring; three or more pieces of 6mm or 1/4" rope 26-30'ft long, something to cut your rope with, EMT sheers or hook knife, blanket or mat to sit on as these are ground rope exercises. Bring what you need in the way of food and snacks to support yourselves.

From medical staples, and acupuncture needles, including needles and hooks OH MYYY! From endorphin buttons to needle bondage and smallish flesh hooks; possibly a flesh corset. Things that perforate the skin can give both bottom and top a very powerful rush. The metallic essence in the air, the ruby trails across the skin, and the wince beside the eyes as something eases through that soft, supple flesh: these are some of the delightful aspects of pokey play. Come and explore these pokey things with Miz Tee and her prey. This is an interactive presentation. This is a 500 skill level presentation. We do not encourage trying many of these activities without putting due time in your own kink-aware training. - Held in The Plank
