subculture,
our vocabulary,
and our roles.

Manners
& Protocols

Advanced
Play
What
do you want
to know and
are you sure
you won't blush?
This is a frank
consideration
about how we
play when the
dungeon master
isn't looking.
Topics include
sex, sex, and
more sex.

The
Master/slave
Dynamic
|
| One |
The
Roles of Master
and slave
We'll
begin by reviewing
the continuum
of dominance
and submission
and how those
roles complement
one another
as well as have
many qualities
in common. We'll
discuss trust,
respect, empowerment,
and the service
one partner
renders to the
other.

Knowing
Yourself as
Prelude to Being
Yourself
How
do we shed years
of socialization
in order to
become our authentic
selves? How
do we know what
that self is?
Yes we can grow
and change.
Here are some
ways to do so.

Searching
for Spirit in
a Sexual Encounter
|
| One |
The
Mind Body Connection
Let's begin
with an exploration
of who we are
as physical
beings. Understanding
ourselves as
manifestations
of brain waves,
endorphins,
and subconscious
and instinctive
activities will
help us maintain
a perspective
on our lives
and our feelings.
How do we process
pain? What is
pleasure? Knowing
how our bodies
"work"
is the beginning
of accepting
ourselves, from
whence we can
further develop
our human capacities
to feel, to
enjoy, and to
love.

Ancient
Religions
We are thoroughly
immersed in the
Western and Judeo-Christian
culture. What
do the ancient
Sumerians, Greeks,
Hindi, Romans,
Gauls, and Egyptians
have to say to
us about our lives?
In this class
we will explore
the polarities
of Father-Sky-God
and Mother-Earth-Goddess
as well as some
of the ancient
fertility cults
that worshipped
with their sexual
activity and sacred
temple prostitutes.
|
| Three |
Energy
Work
People of the
Eastern Hemisphere
believe that man
is composed of
energy centers,
which control
our health, our
actions, our feelings,
and our lives.
What does this
mean? How does
this work? And
how can we use
this understanding
in the dungeon?
What do we mean
when we call what
we do a "Power
Exchange?"
|
| Four |
The
Sacred Circle
The circle has
long been an honored
way of conducting
meetings. Utilizing
a technique adapted
from Paganism
we will explore
the "parts"
of a sacred circle
and how they can
be used in our
sexual play for
protection, insight,
wisdom, worship,
and manifestation.
This is a prelude
to Sex Magic.
|
| Five |
Sex
Magic
What is magic
and how do we
use sex magically?
How does this
all work and why?
Using all the
concepts we've
explored in the
previous workshops
we will seek ways
to grow as whole
and holy beings.
|
| Six |
Q&A
Let's take some
time to ask and
answer questions.
Use this last
workshop to explore
your own questions
and to satisfy
your curiosity.
A very personal
"wrap-up"
for those who
still have questions. |
