About this Course

This is a hands-on course. You will take turn embodying the archetype of the Dominant and the Submissive. You will practice with classmates. By ‘practice’ we mean express desire/receive desire, ask for what your want/listen to your partner, design and play out scenes together, expressing your limits and boundaries in real time.

We are expecting the majority of the students to be women, so be prepared to partner with another woman for your scenes. The class will also touch upon man-woman dynamics and how they interplay with the D/S archetypes in various combinations. The vast majority of the inquires I have received have been about a female practioner asking for advice in handling a male client. So there will be a bit more emphasis on this dynamic, though we will cover the range.
