SUMMARY:IN-PERSON - DM Training for TES Fest 2026
DESCRIPTION:Youngscientist and Werin\, our TESfest 2025 Chairs of Safety\, will be training all volunteers who signed up to be Dungeon Monitors for TES Fest 2026. If you’re interested in learning for future TES events but didn’t sign up\, please register anyway—education is knowledge capital for our community.   \nAs a Dungeon Monitor\, you’ll learn how to: \n\nDevelop skills to facilitate a safe dungeon environment\nWork effectively with a team\nCommunicate respectfully and clearly\nIdentify possible safety risks\nUnderstand the dos and don’ts of the role\nDevise solutions and alternative approaches\nTo review best practices on skill-based play\, and boundaries of consent in a dungeon environment\n\nBios: \nYoungscientist has been active in many facets of the scene for over 15 years. He’s volunteered and worked on staff for at least a dozen organizations throughout that time\, including being one of the few Pro-DM’s in the NYC area.

He’s probably most well known for teaching Wrestling/Grappling classes and hosting Jello and Lube Wrestling events. \nWerin is a longtime member of the NYC/NJ kink community with over 15 years in the scene and as a TES member. She has volunteered across TES and TES Fest in multiple roles\, including serving as DM Captain at TES Fest 2025\, and regularly DMs at TES events and queer-centered parties like The Rabbit Hole and Transgression. \nAs Vice Chair of Safety for TES Fest 2026\, Werin brings a warm\, attentive\, and quietly watchful presence. She is committed to creating spaces where people feel safe\, seen\, and genuinely cared for while exploring. \nA submissive-leaning switch\, she values trust\, connection\, and the emotional depth of power exchange. She is the partner of Lady Dee and a longtime friend within the community. \nWerin is also a transgender woman\, nearly four years into her transition and on HRT for over two years. She serves as a trans mentor and is deeply committed to supporting and uplifting trans youths\, especially those who may be questioning their place or struggling to feel seen in today’s world. \nIf you see her around\, don’t be shy. She’s approachable\, a little playful\, and always happy to help. And if she’s off duty and taking a break\, she might be open to some soft\, cuddly connection… just say hi first. \nShe tends to notice the quiet things others miss\, and she cares more than she lets on. \n\nCost: Members/Non-Members Free\nRegistration in advance is mandatory.\nRegistration Instructions\nIf You Already Have an Account\n\nRegister: Click here to go to the class registration page.\nLog in: Use your existing account information to log in and register for the class.

SUMMARY:IN-PERSON - Gift of the Gab: Verbalization for Better Bottoming
DESCRIPTION:Beyond “talking dirty”\, verbalization is the skill of using your words to process pain and sensation\, using your words to increase the connection to your top\, using your words for proactive consent\, and using your words to help you flow in and out of headspace. This class will include drills to help decrease creative inhibition\, accurately describe sensation on the fly\, and start verbalizing in your own kink practice. This class will be taught from the bottom POV\, but there will be a ton for tops to learn and do as they help their bottoms vocalize. Please bring a journal\, especially if coming to this class solo. \nBio:\nb01hazard (Louis) is a polyamorous\, queer trans man\, a sadomasochist\, and a proud switch. He’s been in the public BDSM scene since 2011. He’s been a (head) DM\, a volunteer\, and an organizer at parties in NYC and beyond. He’s brought kink education to folks all over the East Coast. Outside of kink\, he’s a witch\, a lover of spreadsheets\, a writer of smut\, and plays a ton of Dungeons and Dragons. \n\nLocation: \nLGBT Community Center\n208 West 13th Street\nNew York\, NY 10011\nCost: $10 Members/ $25 Non-Members\nRegistration in advance is mandatory.\nRegistration Instructions\nIf You Already Have an Account\n\nRegister: Click here to go to the class registration page.\nLog in: Use your existing account information to log in and register for the class.

SUMMARY:Online – Boldly Bottoming Discussion Group
DESCRIPTION:Boldly Bottoming follows a discussion-based format where those who identify as bottoms can come together to discuss the various topics we face. Our discussions look to foster community\, share knowledge\, and promote safety in the community.  Discussions are centered around experiences and learnings from those who choose to participate. Knowledge sharing does occur\, but from a personal perspective. This space is for bottoms\, submissives\, slaves\, switches\, or anyone who sometimes identifies on the right side of the slash some or all of the time. \nBio:\nMy name is Kathy\, and I’m a white\, queer\, polyamorous woman who identifies as a service-oriented bottom within the kink community. My presentation style is rooted in service and a deep devotion to leaving a positive impact on the world by creating spaces where others can explore their own authenticity. I am a systemic sex therapist\, live in Philadelphia with my angelic cat\, Jojo\, and have been active in my local kink community since November 2022.  In addition to hosting Boldly Bottoming\, I also teach on topics such as service\, rope\, bottoming\, and negotiation in my local scene. \nTo register: \nMEMBERS – $5\n\nCreate a Member Portal account using the same email address used when you purchased your membership.

OneStar is a submissive-Switch who aims to experience and learn as much as possible; In the long run\, there is a goal of giving back to the communities that have created the space for OneStar to embrace themselves fully. \n  \nSMSal \nSM Sal (he/they) has been active in the NYC BDSM Community since June 2021.  Since becoming active\, he has explored a wide variety of different kinks and developed a particular fondness for impact play\, rope bondage\, and medical play among others.  In August 2025\, he became a co-host of the Queens Kinksters Munch\, held in Astoria.  Additionally\, he has been volunteering with TES since the fall of 2024 and served as the Vice Chair of Vending for TESFest 2026. \n  \nYuca_Why \nYuca (she/they) is an Asian American cis female that started exploring the NYC kink scene around June 2025.
