This beginner’s class is designed to introduce you to the safety precautions necessary when it comes to piercing someone’s skin using medical staples. This includes careful negotiations, wound care, and proper aftercare. In this class, I will go over how to play with the proper equipment in a risk-aware fashion. I’ll also include information on what supplies you need as well as where to get them. I will demonstrate basic techniques as well as ways to set the mood and warm your bottom up.

Other points of conversation will include:

• What to do if things go wrong
• Sterilization for set up and clean up
• What to keep in your safety kit
• How to discuss bloodborne pathogens
• 3 Secrets from an experienced player of 20+ years.
