Impact play is a consensual BDSM activity that involves hitting/striking another human being. Many people use this form of play for sexual gratification or in power exchange, but others use it for different reasons, including connection and catharsis. Examples of this include slapping, punching, kicking, spanking, caning, and flogging.

This is a beginners guide to impact play, and a core pillar of BDSM is safety. Topics will include but are not limited to:

• the definition of impact play

• anatomy of the human body and safety/first aid

• impact play techniques

• how to create an impact play scene.

I will also share my experiences as a blind dominant and impact player. So, let’s dive into the wonderful world of impact play.
