Responsible Topping: How To Keep Them Coming Back For More presented by Master Hines
SEE EVENT DETAILS
As an experienced bottom may tell you, Topping is not just about knowing safe words and being great with whips and ropes... Trust is inextricably connected to being a responsible Top and is the greatest attribute, yet it is harder to master than any SM technique.
The intention of this workshop is to examine the foundations of trust and give tops a greater perception of the positive and negative impact of their role in a scene as well as in the BDSM community. It is also intended to help bottoms in the community understand their rights (yes, I said rights) in a scene and recognize for themselves and their own benefit, the attributes of a responsible top.
Master Hines will cover many topics such as:
Negotiating Scenes
Control vs. Egotism
Responsible Sadism
Considering the Long and Short Term Effects
Respecting Limits
Reading The Bottom
Aftercare
Dungeon Etiquette
Your Role as a Top in The Community.
Q & A
For all the focus put on technical skills, dynamic scening truly depends on Responsible Topping.
?About the presenter:
?
For twenty years Master Hines has presented BDSM demonstrations, classes and private workshops in the Southeast and the California Bay Area. He is well respected for his flair and artistry with floggers and has given classes on many topics including Flogging, Spirituality and SM, Erotic Knife Play, Resistance Play, The SM of Hands, and Sensuous Caning. Core to Master Hines’ BDSM philosophy is spirituality through power exchange. His technique and approach to SM puts heavy emphasis on the spiritual connection between Top and bottom. Master Hines is also an accomplished artist specializing contemporary painting. You can visit his web sites at www.TheArtisthines.com and www.HinesFineArt.com.
