Playing With Fire 101: A Beginner's Guide to Fire Play and Massage

Fire play seems intimidating at first glance. You need to get the right kind of equipment; you need all sorts of prep time, and a very particular environment for you to indulge in this kind of play, right? It's why so many are cautious getting into this fun and dynamic style of sensory play that toys with many of our primal fears and apprehensions.

This class is an introductory class for those looking to look past the flash and flare so they can find the practical skills to get into fire massage, play and fire cupping. A little bit of education, practice, and training can turn this intimidating type of play into some of the safest, sexiest, and most sensual play you can experience. We also will look at the other side of the coin as we explore how to build on the intimidation value and work on edging the fire from pleasure to pain while keeping the experience safe for everyone involved.

This workshop is a great beginner class, as we will take you from building your kit to a variety of techniques to use with your fire play, including the fire cupping techniques that are useful as a massage technique, a way to inflict intense pain, and enhance more sensual scenes.

This Class will Cover:

* How to construct your wands, both disposable types and reusable types.

* Health issues and safety when conducting fire play.

* Terminology and negotiation techniques before you start playing with fire with a partner.

* Fire massage, fire cupping, air-enhanced and spray-enhanced fire techniques.

* Tips and tricks for changing a scene from sensual to punishing and back again, ways to prolong your scene as long as you'd like.

Self play with fire is possible, but we highly recommend you bring a partner or make friends with someone in the class! If you are someone with significant body hair you may wish to shave or otherwise shorten that body hair before you practice, unless you like the scent of burnt hair!

When you purchase your tickets you will receive a list of items you may wish to bring to build your own fire-play kit, but there will also be limited ticket options for those that want to pre-pay and receive a beginning fire kit at the class.

NOTE: IF YOU WANT TO PRE-BUY A KIT YOU MUST DO SO NO LATER THEN 5 DAYS BEFORE THE WORKSHOP

There will be opportunities to practice techniques as we learn them during the class, and there will also be a short period after the class for additional classes and practice time.
