TES IN PERSON – Brat Lab: Approaching Brats for Play

Are you a bottom who likes to push your top’s buttons (consensually) but is trying to understand the potential risks in play? Are you a top who wants to provide ‘funishment’ during your scenes without crossing boundaries? Are you a switch that can’t turn your ‘top brain’ off in play? Come to this discussion-based class with peers and find ways to incorporate approaches that work with your play style.

Material will be provided as a launchpad, but feel free to bring your questions/concerns, and we’ll solve them together in class.

Bio: Lubegirl (she/her) is a Queer White appearing POC Switch and the current facilitator of the NYC chapter of Hitchin’ Bitches. Bubbly, personable, and passionate about principles of accessibility, decentralized education, and community building on both sides of the slash since Summer 2015, she uses her platform to encourage kinksters who identify as women to learn the basics of rope while facilitating a safe space for bottoms of all orientations, sizes, and identities.
