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.

We have been out and about at the Power Exchange Summit\, Master / slave Conference\, Master/slave Gathering\, and Southwest Leather Conference among others. Lately we have taught for various MAsT Chapters\, The Rochester Kink Society\, TES Online and TESFest\, and the Dating Kinky class series. We hope to be able to teach and learn from your organization as well. We are founding members of MaST Fredericksburg\, where Trouvere is Director and Chanteuse is Majordomo.\nTrouvere spent four years as a full-time technical instructor. He has decades of public speaking and adult education experience.

SUMMARY:ONLINE - Chain Chest Harnesses from Functional to Fancy with CTW & Mister
DESCRIPTION:Taking a deeper dive into chain bondage harness design and handling\, this demonstration-based class will focus on building chain harnesses for the upper body and torso.

This workshop is considered intermediate level\, but chain bondage beginners are welcome to watch and ask questions! \nFischer Garrett (‘Mister’ – He/Him) is a bisexual\, polyamorous top. His time spent in the lifestyle has led him through a journey of self discovery\, from once being totally monogamous to being a relationship anarchist; from wanting nothing to do with bondage to developing a way to practice bondage in a relatively unperformed and under-documented fashion. In the past several years he has volunteered for larger kink events as a member of a consent incident response team\, a dungeon/playspace monitor\, and as a presenter. He is a huge fan of costumes and masks\, and it is not unusual to know that he is around but often in clever and sometimes strange disguises.\nCecilia T.

Some of the possible topics will include:\n• How to handle the emotional balance of exploring kink while also being a parent.
