Impact 101

(Kink Workshop)

Sometimes people like to hit other people… for fun! And in this workshop / jam, we’ll introduce you to the fine art of doing it in a way where they beg for MORE. Whether you’re brand new to impact or a seasoned spanker looking to fine-tune your technique, this workshop is your invitation to turn thwacks into thrills. We’ll cover everything from implements to body mechanics, sensation to safety—and show you how to turn pain into pleasure - for those who want to be hit and those who want to do the hitting.

Union Square Area - Address given in confirmation email additional info. This location is a walkup.

💡 What We’ll Explore:

🏓 W£@p0n$ of _a$$ destruction: Learn how to select impact implements for use on different body parts, avoiding unintended harm, and how an impact implement’s length and weight can impact (pun intended) maneuverability, pacing and endurance for both the giver and the receiver. Learn the appropriate use of different implements.

🛒 Sensational: Take a deep dive into which variables create different sensations for the bottom and their bottom - whether thuddy, stingy, painful, or sensual and gentle. Also learn about techniques that help ground both the top and bottom.

📖 Reading the Body: Check out how to read the receiver’s body language to supplement check-ins, some nonverbal communication tricks in case things get loud, and techniques to communicate tolerance more effectively than the “1-10 scale”.

💪🏻 All in the wrist: Explore different ways to swing impact implement, mechanics for tops to get different sensations out of the same impact implement. Learn how to utilize your body and not wear out your arms!

🧹We Have __ at Home: Learn how keeping an open-and-k!nky mind all the time can help you discover toys in items you may not have otherwise considered; saving money, creating new sensations, and doing so safely.

We are having a 2-part evening of indulgence and learning. Come for the workshop and stay for the Jam to practice what you learned and meet other like-minded folks!

Workshop Format:

1. Discussion and Practical Exercises: The workshop will include a mix of discussions and hands-on exercises. You'll have the chance to interact with others, practice communication techniques, and receive feedback.
2. Solo and Group Work: You can come alone or with a partner. During the exercises, you'll have the opportunity to switch partners, which allows for practicing with familiar partners and new acquaintances. This helps simulate both established dynamics and pickup scene scenarios.
3. Dress Code and Interactions: Feel free to dress however you want, whether vanilla or ready to practice. Expect to interact with others for the exercises, at least in terms of communication and light D/s. More physical practice will be saved for the jam afterwards. We do not pair people up, and encourage guests to make friends and engage to their level of comfort ensuring that all are able to learn and grow. Couples can stay paired the whole time or practice with others if you so choose.
4. This workshop is open to all gender identifications, sexual orientations, lifestyles, singles and couples. All experience levels welcome. 18+.

The lights go down, the music goes up, and playtime begins! Nix will be available for feedback, scenes, or additional guidance to solidify the workshop’s learning in a hands-on, playful environment. Participate at your own comfort level - whether that means observing, chatting, or playing with others.
