Lesbian Sex Mafia presents Tell Me What You Want, What You Really, Really Want with Laura Antoniou
Often, when we try to tell our partners what we like or want, those words are filtered through things like expectations, projection, fear, shame and verbal shortcuts. Play a little card game with Laura and push your flirting talents up a notch! Expand your creativity and verbal skills beyond “I like flogging” or “anything you want” through an interactive game and exercise. Learn how creative communication and courageous risk-taking can make your relationship and play more intimate, satisfying and fun. Say what you mean, and mean what you say – and make it seductive

Instigate NYC Presents “Choking and Breath Play” with Don (not that Don)
Surrendering the ability to breathe. Fighting for the last scraps of available air. Controlling someone’s oxygen supply to the point of unconsciousness. Predicaments that feel like they really could choke the life out of you. Gags, plastic bags, gas masks, and nooses. For those willing to take the risk, breath play is an amazing and intense ride. For others, it is a reckless and dangerous kink. Let’s talk about it. This class will be a lecture and demonstration of various techniques of air and breath control, as well as carotid artery restriction. Safety techniques and health concerns will be discussed in depth. There will be short demos throughout.
