Petplay 101 & Petplay After Dark

This combined class will cover everything you've wanted to know about petplay, from mild to wild.

Do you have an inner animal itching to be free? Always wanted to see your partner on a leash, but not sure how to do it? This class is for you! We will cover the basics of the whys and hows of petplay, finding your pet/handler identity, how to incorporate it into both D/s and non-power-exchange play, common gear, toys, and intersections with other types of play you might already enjoy. This is for ALL types of pets and handlers -- bring your curiosity and your questions with you. After we cover the basics, we'll begin our "After Dark" section, going more into the taboo. While having a pet prancing on a leash is fun, what about the deeper, darker side of things? We will discuss some of the more controversial areas of play. From the seemingly mundane, like watersports, through medical experimentation, electro-play, pain play, torture, and more. Giving you ideas for how to discuss these darker aspects with a partner, play suggestions, and beyond.
