Curious about caning?

Want to learn some basic theories of caning that will help you get more out of both sensual and sadistic BDSM scenes?

Join us for this fun, hands on workshop in the Wicked Grounds Annex.

We will cover:

• Hands on exploration of a wide variety of canes
• How to build your cane collection
• Warm up and sensual play
• Intense cathartic play
• Discipline play
• Using rhythm and cadence to build your caning scene
• Building headspace in a scene

And much more!

PRESENTERS:

Miriam Green has been in the public kink scene for over fifteen years in the Austin, Houston and San Francisco scenes. They teach a series of KINK 101 classes on the SF kink community, BDSM negotiations and dating while kinky. They also are the owner of Wicked Grounds, San Francisco's first and only kink cafe & boutique, and offer private kink consulting which may be booked via WickedGroundsAnnex.Schedulista.com. Mir is an avid sadist who owns far too many canes for their own good.

Demo bottom & voice-of-the-masochist impossiblepain is a switchy sadomasochist who is amused and thrilled by pain.

For the past several years, Mir and impossiblepain have been teaching caning techniques in this class, through house topping with AfterDark Events, at the Society of Janus BDSM Basics Workshop and now via SpankLab. They also offered the caning sampler workshops for Dark Odyssey Surrender 2018 and 2019.

TICKETING:

Tickets: $15 - $35 in advance, or $20 - $40 at the door. Please pay at the level you can comfortably afford.

We offer a sliding scale, so that cost is not a barrier to attendance.

The regular ticket is $25. This is what most people should pay.

The $15 ticket is offered for those for whom the $25 ticket would be a barrier to participation. If $25 is too much, we take your word for it! Just pay $15.

Have a great salary? Feeling generous? Paying at the $35 level allows us to make the discounted ticketing available to others who need it.

So - that's it! Choose the level you can comfortably afford.

No one turned away for lack of funds.

If cost is a barrier at any point on the sliding scale, please use the Volunteer List at the bottom of the listing to request a scholarship seat.

All attendees will receive 10% off all books and gear purchased the same day at Wicked Grounds!
