The Art of Cell-Popping: Semi-Permanent Branding with a Searing Point: Body art/modification has been around as long as humans have walked the earth. Temporary to permanent scarification, branding and tattooing has evolved to be art form that has documented history, geneology, events, celebrations, relationships or personal stories. Now, Cell-Popping lets us take this art form to the next level, while taking its recipient on a heavenly erotic flight or painfully deep into sub-space through the induced edorphin rush. Using needle-sharp implements heated over open flame until they are red hot, Ms. DeManda will cover safety, technique and show how to create single-pore puncture burns. Each puncture makes a "popping" sound as the art is put to form on flesh, resulting in a masterpiece that looks similar to a light brandings or pale tattoos that will last 2 weeks to 6 months or more, depending on the healing capabilities of the recipient.
Misery Misery's Pet, chris Misery is Dominant Sadist Goddess and Switch/bottom (only to select Sadists) who is the co-founder of Women Of Leather Florida (WOLF).

"Studies have shown that vibrations from rhythmic sounds have a profound effect... In shamanic traditions, drums were used in periodic rhythm to transport the shaman into other realms of reality... constant rhythm affected the brain... allowing the shaman to achieve an altered state of mind and journey out of body" (excerpted from www.brain.web-us.com). Experience how to use music as sadomasochistic play by becoming the instrument or the musician. Rhythmic Beating is a surreal way of pounding the beat into someone until both heartbeats are synchronize with the music. Discover the endorphin release, spiritual connection, cathartic release found through the pain and the pleasure. Learn about safety and techniques as everyone becomes one circle of pulsating exotic and erotic source of energy.  This is a hands on class where everyone will find the beat within as our collective energies crecendo to the rythym.

 An Introduction to Pressure Fetishes & Objectification: Facesitting, trampling, and smothering are some of MsKitty’s favorite forms of play. Using little or no equipment, PF requires no toy bag. It does, however require good knowledge of the bottom and good communication. Pressure fetish is very intimate and can be rough or sensual. MsKitty has been using PF as part of her play repertoire for about 10 years now. Her class will go through  the why’s and how to’s, what facesitting is and is not and demonstrate the power play that can come from using one’s own body –and nothing else-to dominate a bottom.
