Beat Down Copy

KInky People of Color presents “Beat Down”

Kinky People of Color: Bay Area invites you to our POC Impact Jam: Beat Down! If you identify as a Person of Color, join us as we build community, socialize, and practice impact play! Impact play covers Spanking, Punching, Flogging, Whipping, Caning, and any other method that causes impact on the body.

This is a safe place for us to explore various forms of impact and express our truest selves free from the stigma of society, the fear of oppression, and the judgment of those that would look upon us as objects, others, and who would use our identities against us. This is a space to live in any gender, sexual expression or disability on the spectrum, and to not worry about the one thing we are constantly reminded of in other spaces: our race and ethnicity.

*All levels are welcome and encouraged to participate. Doors will remain open until 3:30pm; you are welcome to arrive and depart as you wish!

The event is held at the Folsom Street Community Center in SF, a short walk from the Civic Center Bart station.

Doors open at 1:45pm for check in.

Opening circle will be presented by John at 2:15pm followed by a short intro lesson for those new and looking to learn more.

After the intro lesson ends, the dungeon will open for all to use freely.

KPOC’s representative JohnSmile and Adonis will host for the evening.

Petite refreshments such as snacks will be provided throughout the night.

Wind down starts at 4:45pm and the Impact Jam ends at 5:00pm.
