Power Dynamics for Radical Relationships
Sera Miles
FRIDAY 10:00 am - 11:30 am / Tent A
​
What if we could negotiate all our relationships from a place of self-truth and self-love? What if we stopped placing dominance on romantic dynamics and embraced the sanctity of each interpersonal connection? What if we believed our needs were so valuable, that we energetically facilitated getting them met? Let’s work toward believing we deserve every morsel of what we crave. Let’s develop intentional relationships while consciously questioning the tenets of monogamy and polyamory. Let’s allow our relationships to change just as we change.
Imagine the dynamics you could create and thrive in if you trusted your vision. Join Sera to uncover ways to dig into and express what you want and risk not only the sting of rejection, but also the ripe joy of fullness. What if you could feast at the table of your dreams come true?

This conversation is geared to help you explore whether or not you have created your own box. While providing tools to help you expand and explore.

From there, T/they gathered advice, questions to answer, wonderful memories, lifelong friendships, and the ability to express T/their passion for being Master and slave. Had you asked T/them 10 years ago where T/they thought T/they would be, it certainly would not be here!

Leather Traditions, Military Protocol and Victorian Sensibilities
Liza and her slave Jody
FRIDAY 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm / Dungeon
Many of our leather traditions and certain Master/slave or Dom/sub protocols came from the military and from the Victorian era. In this class, International Master and slave, Liza and her slave, Jody, will discuss the connections between military protocol, the traditions of so-called “old guard” leather, and etiquette according to Emily Post. You will learn a little of the history of military protocols and leather traditions, including some of the reasons for certain traditions so you can decide which, if any, you wish to incorporate into your lifestyle and dynamic. We will discuss the other traditions that influence our leather lifestyles. We will also discuss the function of rank and hierarchy in the military, and in Victorian (and perhaps even Edwardian) households and how these can translate into M/s, D/s and related relationships.

Master Malcolm and farrah

This presentation is designed for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the intricacies of Power Exchange relationships, as well as individuals struggling with codependency or a history of trauma and abuse. Whether you are new to the kink community or a seasoned veteran, this presentation provides valuable insight on navigating the challenging terrain of service, caretaking, and codependency in kink and Power Exchange.

Normalizing Failure
Sir DaddyDaun and slavegirl j
SATURDAY 9:00 am- 10:30 am / Tent A
Sir DaddyDaun and slavegirl j spent 8 years traveling together in a space that's about the size of the average home bathroom. There were no doors to slam when angry, no separate spaces to be in T/their own feelings. Despite sharing the good, bad and ugly, the common perception is what T/they have is #couplegoals. The truth is through being a new couple, titleholding, health crisis and your average partner squabble, T/they have both done each O/other damage. T/they know it’s all a part of being human but dang if it doesn’t feel like you are the only one hurting this way. Join T/them in a vulnerable conversation and be reminded you have not failed, only stumbled.
They're Sexy, I'm Not. How To Get Over It And Find You!
Coral Mallow
SATURDAY 9:00 am- 10:30 am / Tent B
She's skinny, has bigger breasts, longer hair, etc...
He's built, younger, taller, ect...
Stop.
In this class we will see the beauty and sexiness in the people around us and most importantly ourselves. We discuss how it's ok to not find things sexually attractive in ourselves and others. More importantly we explore how to question if those convictions are true or if social pressure, body dysphoria, racism, and internalized trauma have a hand in their construction.
We will aim to see the truth of what is considered truly beautiful by us versus what we have been taught and told what beauty is. We examine our understanding of sensuality, sexuality, romance, connection, and intimacy alongside where boundaries might help us achieve our preferred realities.
Then we discuss how to apply it to day to day and scene life.
Then, we have cool down and meet each other. Because this is a very big topic, and you are very brave.
