Alain (he/him) is a European kinkster who landed in Colorado in 2000 after a brief pitstop in the San Francisco Bay area. He has been actively involved in his local kink communities since 1992, and identifies as a rope top, dominant, daddy, owner, primal predator, and occasionally farmer. From 2002 to 2005 he founded and ran Rope Art Productions, a business which ran a bondage website, organized events, and did shibari performances at non-kink parties. Most recently, he organized and taught at the shibari and kink tracks for Ecchi Expo Denver, a new annual conference for adult fans of Ecchi Anime. Together with his partner TiedRed, he teaches classes on deeper and edgier parts of kink, including Fear Play, CNC, Primal Hunts, and Advanced Bottoming for Rope.
A deep dive into 21st century stalking, opportunistic consent violations, and how both tops and bottoms can keep themselves as safe as possible.
Consensual Non-Consent play is getting increasingly more popular and less taboo in the kink community. This class dives into what CNC means, why we like it, how we struggle with actually making it happen, the various types of CNC play, and how to safely get started with it.
Fear Play is the spice in the back of our pantry that completely changes any dish. However, it's an ingredient that becomes tricky to use with time and familiarity in a relationship. Balancing your recipe is key. During this class, Alain and TiedRed will share the secret to cultivating this special ingredient to completely revamp or elevate your current play.
Congratulations! You have been actively participating in the kink community for a hot minute and are having a great time. Until suddenly, without warning, participating in the scene does not feel so great. Now what? What do you do when a kink world that youâ??ve identified with for so long doesnâ??t feel as shiny? In this class, weâ??ll take a positive approach to unpacking the part of kink that is not often discussed in the open. There are several strategies we will discuss to recover from significant conflicts like a breakup, friendship going awry, or a consent violation even in such a small community. Whether you are a newbie looking for cautionary tales or working on finding your zest again, this class is for you!

This is a class paced for beginners but relevant for anyone who needs to brush up on the basics of rope bondage. We will cover intention and negotiation for rope play, and some basic skills: the Somerville Bowline, single- & double-column ties, the chest harness. If there's time we will have some fun using what we have learned to practice combining ties and improvise. After taking this class you will have a general safety knowledge and a few basic skills that will get you on your way to start having fun with rope bondage.
We will work on 2 or 3 basic corset designs, and then learn to weave smaller rope such as paracord into our corsets to add structure so that our corsets do what corsets traditionally do, squeeze in the some places, push and support in others. We will learn how to weave beautiful patterns into our corsets by using multiple rope colors. Although corsets are traditionally worn around the torso, this technique can be modified for multiple parts of the body (or even two bodies if you get creative).
This class does not require a rope bottom nor does not require experience. We will be learning our techniques by tying rope around our own thighs because they donâ??t wiggle as much when you tickle them (usually).
This is the rope class for everyone! This class is not about learning specific ties in a specific way. This class is about improvisation and fun. Participants will be invited to start with the rope secured to the body somewhere and then pick a direction and see where the rope goes and where you and your rope bottom take it. Participants will be invited to tie wrists, arms, torsos, legs, ankles to each other in creative ways mostly using two simple hitches: the munter hitch and the cow hitch. We will start with a guided tie and then each participant will set out on their own. We will discuss different techniques that make these basic ties work, rope tension, anchoring, reversing direction, and taking up slack as the body changes position.
Who needs toys? This class explores the many ways to cause pain/discomfort using your own body as a sadistic tool. We will explore using our fingers, hands, feet, elbows, and even our chins. We will explore effective ways to bring pressure points, punching, slapping, hair pulling, and pinching into our S/M practices. We will also discuss, from the bottom's perspective, how to differentiate good and bad/nervy pain when it comes to pressure points and pinching.

Chains are a kink staple that evoke images of dungeons and being trapped, feelings of cold and hard restraint, and power and control. This class includes an accelerated discussion of risks and safety information of using heavy chain, demonstration of various metal connectors used in place of knots or frictions, and a demonstration of a simple body harness. Class information followed by open labbing time for participants to play with chain bondage. Great for self- and partnered-bondage participants and absolute beginners! The presenters will have plastic chain available to borrow during the workshop, or BYO two 6-feet lengths of 1/4-inch proof coil zinc-plated chain and four to six 1/4-inch stainless steel screw-pin anchor shackles.
Taking a deeper dive into chain bondage harness design and handling, this class demonstrates two varieties of arms-free chest harnesses in chain plus an advanced arms-included chest harness and discusses and demonstrates modifications including lower wrap placements and shoulder straps. A good grasp of beginner chain bondage handling is highly recommended.
Chain - that cold, heavy, unforgiving material. You've learned to bind yourself or your partner in it. You've lashed them and learned tension and body manipulation. The next challenge is using chain to fly!

Cody has attended many conventions, classes, events, and is excited to share from these experiences.
Negotiation for pick-up play and play with familiar partners offers challenges in many forms. This class would go over negotiation and pick-up play with special consideration to dynamics from the perspective of those on the bottom end of the play spectrum. This includes consideration to a submissive having their own toy bag, knowing themselves and introspection into what subspace looks like for them, what aftercare is important for them, and what different forms of communication during scenes can look like.
The class would include handouts which would go over what I have found and polled others to find as helpful with before, during, and after scene items to include in a toy bag, as well as a basic checklist for negotiation itself.
Join your hosts Moon-Angel, Codycody & Mrs_Tasty for some down time and fun.

Master Jim and dee
Fathom_MasterJim and tealover_dee
Master Jim and dee are a monogamous M/s couple who married out of college and have been exploring their kink ever since. In their long journey together, they began to delve deeper into the lifestyle in 2010. They attended their first community event after another 5 yrs, and became increasingly engaged in the community, attending events and finding their chosen family. Master Jim serves as Director of MAsT MASS where they have long been active members. Dee is the Managing Editor of the Rogue Gazette, the Newsletter from the CJLC Boston Annex. In their spare time Master Jim can be found playing Pinball and making espressos, as dee, an avid reader, crochets and sips tea.
Even if you already know that your current relationship has the elements of a power exchange, how might you successfully transition a long term egalitarian relationship into an intentional power exchange? In this class Master Jim and dee will talk about how after over twenty years of marriage and two children they realized their relationship wasn't quite like the neighbors. They will discuss the process of transitioning, the challenges faced, and lessons learned as they took the steps towards creating an M/s relationship: taking the time to build their power dynamic path; overcoming hurdles; and balancing pre-existing ties to "vanilla" life.
In this class Master Jim and dee will talk about monogamous M/s relationships by exploring the various ways of being monogamous: emotional, sexual and play. They will share the irony of not quite fitting into vanilla life because they are M/s and kinky, but feeling out of place in the more free and diverse kink world, since they identify as monogamous. This ironic conflict led to the belief that our innate relationship traits fall on a spectrum from monoamory to polyamory. Having embraced monogamy, they will also address a frequent query they receive: How do you get all of your needs met in a monogamous relationship? To do so they will share the unique gifts monogamy offered in their pursuit of a deeper more connected M/s relationship.
Fischer 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 recently as a presenter for the topic of this book. 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.

Griffin has been active in the southern Maine scene since discovering it in 2015. Excited by the seemingly endless amount of information there was to learn and by rope's limitless possibilities, he has been learning and practicing every day since. He now has over nine years of experience in tying, bottoming, and self-tying, and over eight years of experience teaching, performing, and doing demonstrations. He was a group leader of Black Knot Rope Group from 2018-2023, and in 2023 founded Box Tie Studio with his spouse ropespaced. He loves floorwork, partials, and full suspensions equally, for different reasons; however, he says being able to connect with his partner and build the scene together is what makes it all worthwhile.
Rather than trying to cram our heads with more knowledge, let's take some time to have some fun together! Between escape challenges, races, and blindfolded challenges, there's sure to be lots of laughter and good memories.
In this class, Griffin207 will go over various methods to create and attach rope hangers to harnesses for partial or full suspensions.

By the end of the class, you'll have gained the skills to be able to tie uplines safely and quickly, and make them look good! People will not be suspended in this class and harnesses will not be taught. Participants should be comfortable with tying single column ties, frictions and hitches, and suspension-capable harnesses.

Heyo! My name is Maeven, and SweetieMaey on all socials. I'm a ditzy, curious, and caring Bimbo. I pursue my submission and overall kink journey as an experiment to the edges of free will and what can be experienced, pleasurable, and painful.

Then I use my bimbo side to turn off all that nerdy stuff and just have fun.

Being a bimbo or topping/Dominating one is for all genders, all ages, and other identities. I recommend this class for those whoâ??re interested in service submission, roleplay, transformation, CNC, hypnosis or dollification.

I've been part of the Maine rope community since 9/2014, first as a self-tyer and bottom, and later as a self-suspender and rigger. I have been doing demos since 2016 and teaching since 2017. I co-ran Black Knot Rope Group from 2018-2023, and in 2023 I opened Box Tie Studio, Maine's first full-time rope studio. I'm most passionate about providing education around body positivity and inclusiveness, rope bottoming, beginner- and intermediate-level rope, and health and safety. My nursing career has been very helpful in informing my classes.
In this class, Cait will talk about bigger-bodied people in rope. The topics they'll discuss are geared towards bigger bottoms and their riggers, as well as bigger riggers. Some of the topics covered are more theoretical in nature, including adaptability, partnership, safety considerations, and emotional aspects. The others are more technical and practical, including a rope exercise and tips and tricks for single column ties, tension, placement, harness stability and comfort, and lifting bigger bottoms into suspensions (from both rigging and bottoming perspectives). If time allows, you will be able to try out some of the lifting techniques for yourself!
Rope bottoming is a skill, but sometimes it feels like it's not exactly easy to learn or navigate. This class is a great opportunity to learn (or refresh your memory) about the fundamentals of rope bottoming. Topics we'll go over include the basics of consent, negotiation, vetting, safety information, body awareness and care, active bottoming, communication, and some emotional considerations. We'll also go over some information about bottoming and neurodivergence. While this class is about bottoming, tops are encouraged to attend to learn more about the unique skillset their rope partners bring to their scenes. It's important that we understand the roles, abilities, and challenges of everyone participating in our scenes.

In this workshop, we will explore building and fostering platonic kink connections and partnerships. We'll dive into the intersection of platonic kink and queerness, particularly how platonic connections can be affirming for folks on the aromantic and/or asexual spectrums; debunk myths about ties between sex and kink; and discuss building community around intentional platonic partnerships. Overall, this workshop aims to affirm and celebrate that platonic partnerships can be just as deep, vulnerable, and intimate as romantic and/or sexual connections.
In this workshop, we'll explore building kink skills for recovering people pleasers and trauma survivors. Many people are familiar with the fight, flight, and freeze responses when faced with a perceived danger or threat, and there's actually a fourth: fawn, which is a people-pleasing trauma response. If you've ever put your own feelings and comfort aside for someone else during negotiation, in a scene, or in a relationship, you're not alone. Kink for Recovering People Pleasers will explore the fawn response and how we can heal it to build stronger and more secure connections within kink.

What better way to prepare your body for a scene (or many), then to improve your mobility, become more grounded and explore new ways of moving your body. The entire class is done laying on the floor, with this simple change, the perception of where your body is in space is altered and increased focus and awareness is needed to control the isolated movements. In addition to the improved mind body connection, this class helps with postural alignment, gently increases joint flexibility (especially of the hip and ankle joints), works the core and helps with balance. A yoga mat or beach towel may make it more comfortable and socks are helpful.
This class will look at what service is and what it means to many in the BDSM lifestyle. When we think of service our minds tend to go certain places on the service spectrum: domestic, administrative, sexual and waitstaff based services all come to mind quickly and usually are focusing on the right side of the slash. Often forgotten are the service contributions from the left side of the slash as well as looking at what drives people from both sides of the slash to want to serve. All of these areas will be covered and discussed with interactive exercises to help you learn more about your feelings towards service and what you might be looking to receive from serving or being served.

I am a skilled top and domme and have been active in the local community for over five years. I got hooked on flogging at my first play party. After a few scenes, I purchased some floggers to keep in my toy bag so I could always be ready in case I found a willing top. It was on a whim during the summer of 2017 that I purchased a matched set of floggers and set out to learn Florentine flogging. Within no time I had my first flogging scene as a top! I continue to practice and love to arrange flogging scenes as often as I can. I have since developed beginner and advanced classes that were held at the local dungeon. I'm always happy to demonstrate the art of flogging with others.
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.
Double the fun! Two handed and Florentine flogging. Please bring a matched set of floggers with you.
A space dedicated to flogging for an hour or so. Ask questions, try out a flogger or practice with your bottom. I am happy to host. I can bring some floggers to display and practice with.
