BDSM Bottoming Basics

So, you think you might be an s-type…This is a new class specifically designed for those folks on the “s” side of the slash to learn about BDSM and the BDSM community from an experienced bottom and submissive in a safe and welcoming environment before venturing out into the BDSM world. Deciding to make that first step into the world of kink can be overwhelming, and this class is the perfect place to gain some insight into how to get started on your journey safely and have some fun in the process! Topics will include:

• Munches, Classes & Parties, Oh My! – Where to get started
• Navigating the Kink and BDSM Community
• Party & Dungeon Etiquette
• Vetting Potential Play Partners/Doms & Tops
• Community Resources for Bottoms/Submissives
• Safety for Bottoms/Submissives
• Consent and Negotiation

There will be plenty of time for Q&A as well!

Doms and Tops are welcome and encouraged to attend. However, please note that this class is for s-types and will be conducted with a bottom/submissive frame of mind. All attendees will need to remain in bottom/submissive headspace when participating in any discussion and Q&A portion of the class.

About the instructor:

blushangel has been a member of the Los Angeles BDSM Community for over 6 years. She is an experienced flogging and rope bottom and spent the first two years of her BDSM journey attending flogging classes where you would have often found her as an eager demo bottom. Over the years, she has discovered her love for being in rope bondage and for other types of edge play, particularly wax and knives.

She is passionate about expanding education and resources for bottoms and submissives and creating more leadership and teaching opportunities for female identifying, bi, queer, trans, POC and other minority groups within the BDSM Community.

These days you will find her out at munches, volunteering for various community events and being tied up by her friends or on the bottom end of a flogger at parties. blushangel has also been practicing yoga for over a decade and is a yoga teacher and Reiki Master. She recently launched a yoga program at 910WeHo. The intersection of yoga and mindfulness with BDSM is another passion project near and dear to her heart.

What is 910 WeHo doing to ensure that this event is safe, controlled, and compliant with current covid-19 restrictions?

910 WeHo is taking great care to make this in-person event as safe as possible. We are aware of CDC guidelines and will be instigating the following measures to ensure that guests and staff are not exposed to unnecessary risk:

Social Distancing - Social distancing is strongly encouraged, especially for guests who are not part of the same pod. Seating will be carefully set up to make this easy and clear!

Masks - Masks will be provided upon request and are currently optional at vaccinated-only events!

Call Outs- REFUNDS WILL BE GIVEN IN FULL TO GUESTS WHO CALL OUT SICK BEFOREHAND. GUESTS WHO ARRIVE ILL WILL ONLY BE GIVEN A PARTIAL REFUND! Please do not show up to this event sick or with symptoms of illness.

Administering Hand Sanitizer - Guests will be required to use hand sanitizer before entering our facility and may be asked to use hand sanitizer again upon exiting.

Tickets Purchased Beforehand - All tickets will be purchased beforehand to minimize the need for contact. This means that nobody will need to handle credit cards or cash. Please do not attempt to purchase a ticket at the door. We will only allow people through who have registered online via eventbrite and reserved their space by paying in advance.

Upholding CDC Occupancy Guidelines - As CDC guidelines continue to change, we will continue to honor them. Our in-person events and classes are vaccination only, which means that our occupancy numbers will reflect that.

When do the doors open?

Guests will be allowed into the facility as early as 8:15PM! We will keep our doors open until 9PM, at which point we will no longer be allowing guests to enter unless they have contacted us to let us know when they will arrive. Please email us at info@910weho.com BEFORE PM if you know you will be running late! Missing a class or failing to contact us before the cutoff time does not entitle you to a refund.

How much do tickets cost?

Tickets are $30 a person! In-person tickets are first come, first serve and are non-transferable: they must match the name on our guest list at the door.
