This is the class for you. Join Dalton as he discusses common Bootblack kit items, care for leather, neoprene, sneakers, and other common types of pet play gear, boot shining, and best practices for both sitting for a bootblack as well as working the stand.

Pretty much every Kink 101 teaches us that consent and negotiation are mandatory steps before a scene — but the tools we learn fall short when it comes to real-world experiences. Can mentally ill players do “safe, sane, consensual” BDSM? What does “risk-aware” kink actually look like? What if our feelings change mid-scene, or our safeword fails? This class offers a more nuanced, useful dive into consent and negotiation, designed to make your play (and the lead-up to it) safer, hotter, and more joyful for everyone involved. You’ll leave with everything you need to negotiate play fluently, without overthinking or missing crucial steps.

Whether it be wedgies, swirlies, or being "forced" to piss your pants, humiliation can take many forms. But, what keeps eager submissives returning to these embarrassing tasks and scenarios? In this workshop, Pup Roger will discuss some perspectives on humiliation, and how one can find the experience of embarrassment and degradation actually quite empowering. We'll also discuss fun ways to explore humiliation play for those new to the kink.

Often in the kink community we take on roles for the sake of a scene, and shed them just as easily; but just as often, the things we express can help explore the inner self in ways that are hard to connect with traditionally. Taking on an animalistic aspect for a time can give us freedom to express and experiment with things we would never dare to as a person.

Join Pony Freyja for an open discussion of finding your inner animal, and of how those internal critters can help you to explore aspects of self, presentation, and desire that might otherwise be off limits.

This discussion is for anyone interested, whether you've been involved in any sort of animal roleplay before or not, pony or otherwise. All are welcome, come with an open mind and a willingness to share!

Asexuality lies on a spectrum and can cause a lot of stress and anxiety at a sex-heavy conventions and events. This class will dive into what it means to be on the asexual spectrum, and talk about how to enjoy kinky play without intercourse. This class will also go over talking to your partner about being on the asexual spectrum and help with learning to enjoy play with your asexual partner. You certainly don't need to be asexual to attend.

An introduction to the various ways you can use impact and/or sensation in your play. We are only limited by our own creativity so even if you don't have traditional floggers, crops, etc. there are plenty of everyday items that can leave a "mark". Be it the kiss of a flogger or the dragging of claws across skin explore the line between pleasure and pain.

Sponsored by Northshore diapers. Attendees must have a layer of clothing over their diaper; no disposal of diapers in the bathrooms

What happens when you put a dog, a cat, and a horse in the same crate?

Mats are open! Unleash your pet-side and mosh. A quiet corner will be provided for pets who prefer a calmer mosh area.
