HMU Academy: Enough to Make Em' Blush

Join HMU Academy for a special class on humiliation, degradation and emotional edge play. Bare your soul with <3.

We all love to make someone blush! But how do we learn to tap into those deep dark secret places and bring them out without causing trauma or long lasting emotional damage?

In this class we will discuss the ins and outs of humiliation and degradation, what their differences are and why we like to explore the shadow parts of our minds. We will also practice tools for consent, creating safe spaces for these explorations, using dialogues, and how to use these shadow parts for empowerment as well as power play.
