Fire play is a high-drama scene in the BDSM world. It is considered by many to be edge play and requires an individual mentor for successful mastery. I demonstrate ways to produce either an endorphin release or an adrenaline rush. I will also share some psychological “mind-fuck” techniques. I’ll use flash cotton, devil’s fire (hot needles touched to the skin’s surface to produce endorphin release); alcohol wanding and fire glove; cupping and BDSM wax play. I’ll cover safety procedures extensively.

(This is a two part class; classroom & club.)
