Pink Playshop: Spanking Hot Times

Posted by Gravity On May - 19 - 2013

 

Friday, June 7th, 2013 – 9pm to 10:15pm

Another fabulous playshop coming your way!

Every Pink party launches with a playshop free for party goers. This month you will be guided into the world of spanking!

Spanking Hot Times!

It’s time to redden the rump, thwack the tuckus, and paddle the posterior! Depending on your mood, a good spanking can be exhilarating, challenging, or calming.

In this playshop we will cover all the usual ways to hit butts: soft, hard, with hands, with toys, viciously, or with decorum. In addition, we’ll look at hit zones, sensations, and creating the mood you desire. We want to make this a highly interactive workshop, so if you can bring your own spanking top or bottom! If you can’t, come watch anyways and we will make sure you have a good time.
