SUMMARY:Interrogation
DESCRIPTION:To play with interrogation is a fantasy of many but to realize it can be difficult without knowing where to start\, what to look for in terms of ideas\, safety\, negotiation\, and much more. \n\n\n\nIn this Interrogation class\, we will introduce the participants to the idea of playing with simple scenes that can be relatively easily prepared and executed. \n\n\n\nWe will cover a large variety of possibilities to help you get started with one of the most exciting phantasies within kink and intimacy. \n\n\n\nContents: * Goals and outcomes of an interrogation scene* Pre scene negotiations* Safety and consent* Secret and not so secret preparations* Starting the scene and ending it* Physical and psychological tools for interrogating* Aftercare \n\n\n\nThe workshop is held by Barkas who has encountered “serious” interrogation scenes while being in the military as well as playful interrogation scenes in the kink world\, mostly as the interrogator.

SUMMARY:Playfighting
DESCRIPTION:Play fighting is a completely different way of engaging with other people. The way we move\, think\, and relate to our environment changes in this type of interaction. This group activity lets participants challenge each other for a play fight. \nIn a safe environment\, participants can challenge themselves and each other to fight with each other in a playful and joyful way. Not winning but experiencing is the focus of this monthly event. At play fighting\, we will start with an introduction that covers motivation\, safety\, consent\, and expectations. \nAfterwards\, it’s the participants’ space and time to experience play fights themselves.

SUMMARY:Yes - No - Maybe: The art of pre-scene negotiation
DESCRIPTION:Good scenes don’t just happen. They start with a conversation. \nThis class explores the often-overlooked art of pre-scene negotiation: talking about what we want\, what we’re curious about\, what we’re not interested in\, and what we might need\, to feel comfortable exploring together. \nWe’ll look at consent as something more nuanced than simply asking “is this okay?” and explore how to have conversations about boundaries\, expectations\, communication\, risk\, safer practices\, and what happens if something changes along the way. \nThrough discussion\, practical exercises and a few scenarios to think through\, we’ll practise asking useful questions\, communicating our own needs\, and listening to the answers we get\, including the answers we might not have hoped for. \nNegotiation isn’t about taking the mystery or spontaneity out of a scene. It’s about creating enough trust and understanding that everyone can actually enjoy what comes next.

SUMMARY:Anomalies
DESCRIPTION:Anomalies is a weekend gathering with the aim of exploring what else is out there in kink\, intimacy\, relationship\, and sexuality. What perspectives can we find if we deviated from the usual conference style where selected and often (semi-)professional presenters offer contents that repeat itself? What can we learn if we democratized that selection of content and presenters? What experiences may await us if we attend something that isn’t already fixed? \nWith these questions in mind we want to invite you to a gathering that is neither a conference nor an unconference\, strictly speaking. It is an invitation to explore together possibilities and potentials of all of us. For more details about the event\, please see the post here.  \n  \nSpecial Event Refund Policy:  \nTo cancel\, email us at info@studio-allegory.com with your name\, your order number\, and the event name. \n\nMore than 7 days before the event: Full refund (-$3.50 administrative fee).\nBetween 7 days and 48 hours before the start of the event: 50% of the ticket price\, less a $3.50 administrative fee OR ticket transfer to a similar future event.\nLess than 48 hours before the event starts or no-show: No refund or credit.

SUMMARY:Into The Darkness - Shibari Experience
DESCRIPTION:Turn out the lights\, and let the world disappear. \nFor this shibari experience\, we’ll make the studio as dark as possible\, and then we’ll tie. \nWhen you can’t see the rope\, you have to feel it. When you can’t watch the movement\, you have to pay attention to it. \nThis is shibari stripped of the visual: an invitation to explore touch\, tension\, communication and sensation in the dark. Take the opportunity to work on your technique\, experiment with sensory deprivation\, or simply enjoy the pleasure of not seeing exactly what comes next.\nLet your eyes adjust to nothing\, and let your hands take over. \nBring your rope. Bring someone you trust. Or come curious and find your way into the darkness. \nFormat:  \nAfter a slow arrival with lights still on we will all retreat into the tying areas and when everyone has settled\, we will be turning the studio into near complete darkness. Then we will be spending two hours tying and playing. Two lifeguards on duty will be available with little flashlights in case of emergency. If someone needs to get out the lifeguard will announce the flashlight usage with a countdown for everyone to close their eyes and when the light is gone again. \nAll tying levels and backgrounds welcome. For safety reasons we ask participants not to engage in full suspensions.

SUMMARY:Bullwhip 101 – the diversity of the sidearm flick
DESCRIPTION:The sidearm flick is\, in Andi’s opinion\, one of the most variable and diverse whip techniques in interpersonal play. Once mastered\, it allows you to explore a wide range of variations in distance\, intensity and target areas. And even before that we’ll cover save(r) ways to start (almost) directly in engaging playfully with your consenting partner person as this is intended to be a couples workshop. \nAll participants will receive a professionally made (paracord) bullwhip for the duration of the workshop! \nWe’ll cover:\n•⁠ ⁠A bit of theory and safety\n•⁠ ⁠The basic sidearm flick\n•⁠ ⁠Body wraps\n•⁠ ⁠Variations \nRequired to bring:\n•⁠ ⁠Some kind of eye protection (comfortable! safety googles/prescription or sun glasses/ballistic glasses\, or a blindfold if that’s your thing). Mandatory for the whip receiver\, optional but recommended for the whip thrower.\n•⁠ ⁠If noise sensitive: ear plugs/in ears\nOptional to bring:\n•⁠ ⁠Long sleeved clothing\n•⁠ ⁠A well-made bull- or snakewhip in 4-5ft braided length (total length including fall and cracker between 150-190cm)

SUMMARY:Advanced Kinbaku Clinic - Hashira Special
DESCRIPTION:This workshop explores Andi’s (BelialX) and Lena’s approach to tying on the hashira. The hashira is not treated as a simple piece of equipment\, but as an element that actively participates in the scene. The first part focuses on the fundamental principles required when working with a fixed\, upright structure. This includes the technical peculiarities\, the additional safety considerations\, and the differences compared to free-hanging suspensions. A solid technical foundation forms the base on which everything else is built. \nAfter this technical groundwork\, the focus shifts to the creative and emotional possibilities that tying on a hashira offers. Instead of reproducing set poses or following predefined sequences\, we will emphasize building a toolkit that allows for a wide range of moods\, intensities\, and possibilities. The hashira can offer support or take it away\, can feel like a friend or a foe. The stories created with and around it matter more to us than copying any particular pattern. \nThis workshop combines technical\, emotional\, and creative input. We will cover different approaches and techniques to help refine and shape the interaction between the person tying and the person being tied. \nRequirements – tying person \n\n\nsolid suspension experience and confident upline management \n\n\na suspendable upper body tie that reliably works for suspensions with your workshop partner \n\n\nA set of 10 ropes \n\n\nRequirements – tied person \n\n\nawareness of personal emotional and physical capacities\, and the ability to communicate them \n\n\nwillingness to engage with an emotionally oriented style of tying \n\n\nNo previous hashira experience is required on either side. \nSwitching roles during the workshop is not recommended\, as the schedule does not allow for covering both roles equally. One person ties\, the other is tied. Participants can switch between exercises\, though. \nNo specific physical abilities are expected. However\, some exercises may not be possible for all participants. As with any form of rope bondage\, limited flexibility\, joint mobility\, or general condition can lead to physical or emotional limits. In such cases\, exercises should be skipped or replaced with an alternative. We will try our best to help you adapt the tie so it works for you. \nEach pair is responsible for realistically assessing their own mental and physical capacities. Refunds cannot be given if certain exercises or the entire course cannot be completed due to physical or psychological reasons. \n(text by BelialX)

SUMMARY:Shibari Live Drawing
DESCRIPTION:Shibari Live Drawing differs from usual live drawing sessions in two major ways. For one\, the poses that can be reached with the help of ropes are very different from anything live drawing models could assume on their own\, e.g. suspensions.  \nOn the other hand\, those poses are short living\, which means that artists are not only met with unusual poses but also with less time to catch them.  \nIn two Shibari performances by different Shibari practitioners from the community\, the participants will meet different body types every time.  \nAll levels welcome\, all media welcome (photography is dependent on the performer’s individual wishes and only as long as it does not disturb the other participants).  \n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Consent\, control\, and mind play
DESCRIPTION:Curious about hypnosis in kink and erotic contexts? This introductory session explores the psychology and practice of hypnosis\, and its application in erotic and kink contexts. Participants will learn about the theory of the mind\, how the subconscious operates\, how hypnotic states are induced\, and what actually happens during hypnosis. We will clear up common myths\, discuss the applications and ethics of consent-based erotic hypnosis (hypnokink)\, and review evidence-based findings on hypnosis and\, further\, on BDSM and hypnokink.\nThe session includes live demonstrations and optional opportunities for participants to experience trance for themselves.\nThis workshop provides the foundation for Hypnokink 201: Practical Mindplay Lab\, which focuses on hands-on skill development\, scene planning\, and supervised practice.

SUMMARY:Playfighting
DESCRIPTION:Play fighting is a completely different way of engaging with other people. The way we move\, think\, and relate to our environment changes in this type of interaction. This group activity lets participants challenge each other for a play fight. \nIn a safe environment\, participants can challenge themselves and each other to fight with each other in a playful and joyful way. Not winning but experiencing is the focus of this monthly event. At play fighting\, we will start with an introduction that covers motivation\, safety\, consent\, and expectations. \nAfterwards\, it’s the participants’ space and time to experience play fights themselves.

SUMMARY:Shibari Live Drawing
DESCRIPTION:Shibari Live Drawing differs from usual live drawing sessions in two major ways. For one\, the poses that can be reached with the help of ropes are very different from anything live drawing models could assume on their own\, e.g. suspensions.  \nOn the other hand\, those poses are short living\, which means that artists are not only met with unusual poses but also with less time to catch them.  \nIn two Shibari performances by different Shibari practitioners from the community\, the participants will meet different body types every time.  \nAll levels welcome\, all media welcome (photography is dependent on the performer’s individual wishes and only as long as it does not disturb the other participants).  \n\n\n\n\n\n
