SUMMARY:IN PERSON - Ready\, Aim\, Flog with sudisa
DESCRIPTION: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. \nsudisa is a skilled top and Domme who has been active in the local community for more than five years.

SUMMARY:ONLINE - BEDROC  with AttorneyLadySteele
DESCRIPTION:BEDROC is my acronym for how I am living my life again\, after a long hiatus. It is a mix of a friend’s philosophy plus my own philosophy I knew of for 13 years and actively lived for 5. The last 8 years? It became less and less until I lost myself\, lost the respect of those I love(d)\, and nearly lost my sanity. \nNo more. \nIt’s time to come home. It’s time for my foundation to be BEDROC once more. \nI share this in the hope that it helps others. \nBe well\, and happy holidays\, if I don’t say it again. \nBEDROC: \nBoundaries – creating and maintaining mine; honoring others’. \nExpectations – managing mine\, having as few as possible as to not build resentment. \nDetachment – as necessary\, with love\, not a machete. \nRespect – act in a respectful way – take no disrespect from others. Be mutually respectful in my relationships with others. \nOpen Communication – give it and accept no less; transparency in all things. \nCommitment – to myself then to those who I’ve committed to. Must also be bilateral. One person cannot make a relationship work\, no matter what kind of relationship it is. \nLady Steele identifies as a femme queer Alpha leather slave. She has served in the Leather community since 1999. She has presented and volunteered across the U. S. and internationally. She resides in Atlanta where she operates her law practice that serves people in the various BDSM worlds and the ethical non-monogamy (ENM) community. She is the only out\, open\, and practicing attorney in the U.S. that specializes in the issues that are unique to the BDSM and ENM communities. \nShe is the founder of the Center of Learning and School of Success (C.L.A.S.S.)\, the Worthless Bastards (Cigar) Club (W.B.C. – Atlanta)\, and The Leather Coterie (T.L.C.). She proudly leads all of these organizations under the umbrella of the West Inclusive Georgia Socials (W.I.N.G.S.) group. Lady Steele held the position of Social Coordinator for NLA – Atlanta during its last incarnation in Atlanta. \nShe continues to give back to the community as Board Support and Vendor Coordinator for the Leather Leadership Conference and is also a proud member of Onyx Pearls – Southern Leather. \nWhen she is not presenting\, Lady Steele has shared her knowledge through multiple podcasts on BlogTalk (“The Legal Show”)\, the KinkyCast\, the Poly Podcast\, Kuldrin’s Krypt\, Nightlife 24/7\, Dating Kinky\, Excite Me\, and the Black to Leather podcast. \n\nTo register: \nMEMBERS -$10 \n\nCreate a Member Portal account using the same email address used when you purchased your membership.
