We'll also explore the wide variety of other kinds of play involving boots, such as kicking and other forms of boot-based rough body play, sensation play, cbt, and boot worship as part of a scene, including considerations for safety, hygiene, and aftercare.

Floggers are wonderful impact tools, from stingy to thuddy to sensual and all points in between. Let's put a flogger in your hands so you and your bottom can have as much fun as possible. This hands-on class will offer some ideas for you to add this versatile item to your repertoire and create fabulous flogging scenes. sudisa is a skilled top and Domme who has been active in the local community for more than five years. She got hooked on flogging at her first play party. After a few scenes, she purchased some floggers to keep in her toy bag so she could always be ready in case she found a willing top. It was on a whim during the summer of 2017 that she purchased a matched set of floggers and learned how to do Florentine flogging. Within no time she had her first flogging scene as a top! She continues to practice and she loves to arrange flogging scenes as often as she can. She did several beginner single flogger classes that were held at the local dungeon. She has since developed an advanced two flogger florentine class as well. She’s always happy to demonstrate the art of flogging with others.

No better way to welcome warm Spring weather than hanging out with kinky folks! Whether you’re new to the scene, an old friend, or just passing through, we’re excited to see you! We meet every month on the final Wednesday. Come join us! Wednesday, April 24th 7:30pm Skylight Diner 402 W 34th St. (@ 9th Ave) New York, NY 10001 Our hosts will be there to welcome you and answer any questions. There is no cost to attend this event beyond paying for the food you order (and please tip your server well!) The TES Munch is our monthly gathering on the last Wednesday of each month. It’s a great opportunity to meet and hangout with your fellow kinksters in a low-key, low pressure environment. It is open to all members of the community in good standing, and those who are new to the scene are especially encouraged to attend. There is no requirement to RSVP ahead of time, and you do not need to be a TES member to attend. Please note that we highly encourage all attendees to be vaccinated and up-to-date against Covid. However, this event is hosted at a diner that is open to other patrons, and we cannot control for anything beyond what the restaurant requires. Please assess your own risk profiles and act accordingly. We will be providing a discrete option for contact tracing, which is highly encouraged.

Join us for an exploration of the evolution of latex from the founding of the first European rubber garment factory in 1803, to swim caps and Mackintosh raincoats, to the haute couture runways of Thierry Mugler and Mac Jacobs. Have you ever wondered what latex is and how to care for it? We will demystify common misconceptions and make this often intimidating subject accessible to all. A selection of latex showpieces will be on display, in addition to garments in a full range of sizes for those adventurous enough to try latex for themselves! NOTE: This is an IN-PERSON class, including latex showpieces. Please do not attend if you have or suspect that you have a latex allergy. Reneé: While earning a BFA in Fashion, Reneé Masoomian taught herself how to make latex clothing without the benefit of the numerous manuals and how-to videos available today. After graduating she worked with Delicious Corsets and Passional Boutique in Philadelphia, as well as refining her latex skills by constructing designs for Gaelyn and Cianfarani in NYC. She founded her own business, BabyLove’s Latex by Reneé Masoomian, in 2006 and has recently rebranded her separate lines of latex and fabric, masculine silhouettes, and femme fashion under the Reneé Masoomian label. Persephone: Persephone has a BFA in Film and a minor in Philosophy. Her life took a radical left turn when she applied for an internship with The Baroness at her eponymous East Village boutique in NYC. That internship turned into a full-fledged career reaching back 14 years, ultimately leading to a position with Reneé Masoomian after The Baroness retired to France. While developing her craft she also explored her interest in all things kink, attending local parties and large conventions for the first time. An enthusiastic member of the BDSM community, Persephone is thrilled to have a job that combines her love of both fashion and fetish.
