7:30 PM - 10:00 PM IN-PERSON – Bringing the War Fans Out to Play with Sir Sublime July 24 @ 7:30 PM - 10:00 PM IN-PERSON – Bringing the War Fans Out to Play with Sir Sublime War fans have been an unconventional toy for BDSM play for over two decades and are one that Sir Sublime holds dear in his heart. In this class, Sir Sublime will share his considerable knowledge on the history behind the use of War fans for kinky play, safety tips for both Tops and bottoms, and fun ways to incorporate war fans into your style of play. SirSublime has been publicly practicing BDSM since 2011 and has been a House Top and House Rigger for various play spaces during his journey. Sir Sublime considers himself a rope artist, toy maker, and educator. He is known for his sensual rope work, fan play, and his dedication to safety. Demo bottom: Lex Lively realized that she might be into impact play when she would look for any excuse to be paddled while in a sorority during her time in college. While fairly new to the public scene, she has spent the last few years learning and exploring, discovering new things that excite her almost constantly. She lives up to her name, meeting each moment with energy and enthusiasm, always looking forward to the next adventure.
