VisibleRestraint CBT Workshop: Stronger Than You Think

Gallery Erato, 309 1st Avenue South, Seattle 98104
Cost: $35-$75
Link: https://www.strangertickets.com/events/131036330/stronger-than-you-think
Description:
Having conducted field research on cock and ball torture (CBT) for nearly 50 years, Daniel presents their non-scientific findings for your consideration and entertainment. This workshop will include a survey of cock and ball bondage, different methods of torture and CBT safety considerations as well as a brief overview of a few of the off-the-shelf CBT toys commonly available. During most of this class, Daniel will demonstrate their techniques (none of which involve off-the-shelf CBT toys) on participants not chosen at random. More than just a nuts-and-bolts guide, Daniel will also discuss the delicate topic of introducing oneself or one’s partner to CBT. The goal is to create enthusiasts – people who will come back to CBT again and again. This class is demonstration-based with lecture.
Important information:
- No late entry will be allowed due to the intimate nature of this workshop. Doors will be locked at 10 minutes after the start time.
- Water available. Please bring your own cup or bottle.
- Open to all 18+

Saturday 10 December
SLSC Class The Humanity of Dominance with Corso
3:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.
Capitol Hill, Seattle (location given upon registration)
Cost: None, but donations encouraged
Link: The Humanity of Dominan(ce)ts
When it comes down to it, D/s relationships are about two individual consenting human beings – emphasis on the “human beings.” Neither individual is inherently better than the other. Neither individual is more deserving of respect than the other. Neither individual should be denied the rights to their own humanity. And neither individual is unworthy, lowly, perfect or all-knowing. As the saying goes, “nobody’s perfect”.
This Q&A/discussion is not the “one true way” of D/s: It is another perspective. Hopefully you take away some food for thought and come prepared to ask questions. Attendees can expect an engaging discussion on relationship dynamics that challenge stereotypical ideas about roleplay and empowers D/s practitioners to think about their own power exchange relationships.
Toys 4 Dungeon Party by VisibleRestraint

Toys is returning to Gallery Erato, the Pioneer Square home of the Pan Eros Foundation (the nonprofit that produces the Seattle Erotic Art Festival). It’s a large, multilevel space with tall ceilings: a perfect place for our kind of party.
When you first enter the Toys party you’ll walk through the exhibition of men-in-art (curated especially for the month of December). In this same area, we’ll have several kinky tops who will be offering brief (10-15 minute) tastings in their areas of expertise. Then you’ll arrive at a suspension area and demonstration area (14′ ceilings). The main play space will be downstairs, and it’s very large, featuring many great spaces for play.
Advance tickets only. Limited tickets available. Water available. Please bring your own bottle or cup. Questions may be directed to: visiblerestraint@gmail.com. Visible Restraint can be found at http://visiblerestraint.com/ (NSFW).

SLSC RopeLab: Bondage with Alternative Materials
6:30 p.m. – 9:30 p.m.
Capitol Hill, exact location revealed upon registration
Cost: None
Link: https://seattleleather.org/events-lite/rope-lab
Description:
RopeLab Seattle is a collaborative men’s rope bondage community for experienced rope riggers to workshop and practice rope techniques. This is a space for gay and bisexual men, transmen, and other male-presenting people to participate in ropework peer-learning skillshare.
There is no evaluation/requirement for proof of skill level. If you feel you have the necessary skills to participate, you are encouraged to attend. However, the focus of RopeLab Seattle will always highlight the needs of our community’s advanced riggers: RopeLab Seattle is not the place to learn your first knots, but once you have those down (having learned them at one of many great educational events such as Men Tying Men or a ropes class facilitated by SLSC) you are encouraged and welcome to join RopeLab Seattle.
Each RopeLab begins with a welcome and introduction to the evening’s topic/theme often accompanied by a photo slideshow highlighting a variety of methods or approaches to the theme/topic. Participants are encouraged to dialogue about these approaches and share examples of things they have tried, or want to try. After a short discussion, participants are encouraged to form small groups around specific interests related to the theme and then begin roping. This is very much a collaborative educational learning/workshop space and NOT a play party. Participants are encouraged to wander around the space to see other approaches to the topic/theme and engage in discussion. It is encouraged to swap/rotate your tying partner throughout the event to provide a variety of body types to practice on; however, we understand that some people may not be comfortable with a different tying partner, and that should be respected.
