Connections: Putting Emotion Into Play w/ Raymond Wise
If getting the bottom spacey, happy, and experiencing a good connection is the focus of play, this workshop may be for you. Getting a partner feeling that way, has way more to do with communication, emotion, and what's going on inside our minds than physical technique. There's all sorts of ways to get to sub-space. This workshop focuses on the idea of connecting with your partner, mentally, emotionally as well as physically. These ideas apply to first time play partners, as well as intensifying what you already have naturally with a long term, loving partner. You'll get a chance to try some of the ideas and you can find out what fits for you.
First Things First - Where do you want to take them?
Two Easy Things - Do this to establish rapport and make it easy for them to follow your lead. Also useful for social situations, business, even seduction.
The Physical - Your physicality and theirs. Deepening connections.
Do More Than Just Walk In Their Moccasins. This may seem kind of New Age (woo woo!) Is it possible to feel what they feel?
Ask Not What You Can Do For Your Audience - Public Play and how the 'audience' can enhance connection.
Your ticket to the workshop also gets you 10% Off your same-day in-store purchase (One-time use only per ticket.)
Presenter Bio:
Starting in the late 70's before the interweb, before knowing anybody actually does this sort of thing, Wise had to seduce girlfriends into BDSM. The cornerstone of that seduction, is knowing what each other really needs, and fulfilling that need. This approach has been called, "clever," "psychological", "somehow unfair," and even, "dangerously persuasive," but Wise explains,
"All I do is lead people where they want to go, because why work so hard?, and because it works"
That's the focus of most of his workshops, find out what you both really need and how you need to get it. Then lead them there. That's how he gets pretty much whatever he wants.
Carter Steven's Pocono Fall Fetish Fling ( in 1998? ) was his first foray into the public scene where Joe and candi taught him what they know about flogging. After learning from lots of people, he's given workshops at the York Play Group, Brimstone, The first NDDS bootcamp and The Warehouse. He also presents for the SAR (Sexual Attitude Reassessment) module at The Widener Graduate Class in Human Sexuality, to help acclimate future therapists to BDSM practices and culture.
Wise is married to (not surprisingly) MrsWise, where they live in a surprisingly bucolic suburb North of Philadelphia. He hosts the nearby BDSM of SEPA Social in Bensalem, PA. Wise finds it moderately disturbing to write about himself in the third person.
