In this interactive class, we borrow leading and following techniques from partnered dance and apply it to D/s. No dance understanding is required. No partner is required.

Using simple concentration and dance techniques, we explore the internal mind/body connection for Dominants and submissives, non-verbal communication between the leader and follower, and how this works in 24/7, scenes, and more.

Info for Students:

Be prepared to move barefoot. (No shoes are allowed in the studio space.) Please bring a bottle of water for yourself. If you would like to take notes, please bring your preferred materials for that but it's not necessary - if you just want to move and listen, that's ok too.

We offer a sliding scale, so that cost is not a barrier to attendance.

The regular ticket is $60. This is what most people should pay.

If that would be a barrier to attendance, you may use the $40 option.

If you're able to be generous, paying at the $80 option allows us to make tickets accessible to those who need the discount.

So - that's it! Choose the level you can comfortably afford.

If cost is a barrier at any point on the sliding scale, please use the Volunteer List at the bottom of the listing to request a scholarship seat.
