Leather Reign registration is open

I’m happy to announce that I’ll be presenting at Leather Reign, the Puget Sound area’s Leather and BDSM conference, November 8th-10th. Leather Reign is a particularly great conference if you’re interested in authority transfer relationships. Registration opened today, so now’s the time to get the lowest price on tickets!

I’ll be teaching Indelible: Permanently Marking Property, which will have demos plus encouragement for everyone to show their scars so that we can see how different people’s skin heals very differently, and Making It Worse: Collusion as Active Consent, which is always a lively conversation. I’ll also be facilitating a discussion entitled Training: Practicality and Pitfalls where I’ll share my thoughts on some of the sneaky details and we’ll hear from others about their experiences.

Special rate for private lessons in Portland

I hope you’re registered for KinkFest, because they’ve sold out again! I’ll be teaching New to the Scene, Drawn to the Edge and Slipping Into Hypnosis there this weekend.

I’m also offering a special deal on private instruction, if you want to learn in more depth or you find yourself wishing that I were teaching different classes at KinkFest. This weekend, you can book a lesson for $60/hour, with a one hour minimum rather than my usual two hour minimum. For more details, you can read my private intruction page, then contact me!

May 25th – Seattle Hypnokink Enthusiasts’ Group

Which would you like to do first: learn to improvise more effective hypnotic suggestions, or practice delivering pre-written suggestions in your own confident voice? In May, both choices lead to the same results! We’ll be discussing and practicing Ericksonian double binds, powerful ways of phrasing suggestions to create a sense of choice.

Afterward, we’ll try out the “Koala Box” method for arranging group practice time, as pioneered by the BEHIVE hypnosis study group in Boston.

You can find more details & RSVP on FetLife!
