An educational group for women/non-binary/genderqueer/gender variant/intersex people who have a positive, personal interest in BDSM
Whether you are brand new or have been around the BDSM scene for a while, you’ll find something to entice you at our annual Novice Night.
We start with a panel of people with varying amounts of experience in the kink community, from newcomers to long-timers, who share their stories and experiences with us.
Then we encourage everyone to peruse a variety of stations that provide opportunities to experience both the top and bottom sides of various BDSM activities. In previous years, stations have included flogging, paddles, caning, play piercing, riding crops, rope bondage, and much more.

Many people are curious about BDSM but might be a little reluctant to investigate their new found (or old) curiosity. Our Orientation is a fun class that will teach you the BDSM basics and will dispel any myths. You will be made to feel welcomed.
Our monthly Program is also a fun way to get out of the house and meet new people, while learning something new.
If you’d rather read up on BDSM first, checkout out our Resources page and do your research from the comfort and safety of your home.
