Spank Jam - Quiet

An AfterDark Impact Workshop Presented by NyxieNoc

Quiet is a hands-on exploration of nonverbal communication in impact play. Together, we’ll learn to read body language, breath, and muscle tension to better understand our partners, especially those who are nonverbal, low-verbal, Deaf, or hard of hearing.

This class invites you to build trust and connection without relying on spoken language. We’ll explore tactile safe signals, creative communication tools, and techniques to help you play more intuitively and safely, even while hushed.

Doors open at 6:30 PM and close at 9:30PM.

The exact venue address will be sent to ticket holders only for privacy and safety reasons, but it is in SoMa. For planning purposes it is a 10 minute walk from the UN Plaza/Civic Center BART station.

Stopgap is San Francisco’s premier venue for impact play - steeped in history and beloved by the kink community. The fully accessible first floor offers social and play spaces. Below, the 3,100-square-foot basement is filled with iconic equipment, including crosses, benches, bondage chairs, and cages. Many pieces were recovered from the Citadel’s lost storage unit and hold a special place in the hearts of longtime community members. With its historic charm and ample space, Stopgap is the perfect impactful environment for creating memorable experiences.
