SMU was created in the 1980's to help educate people who were starting their exploration into the world of Bondage, Discipline, and Sado-Masochism (BDSM).
At that time there were very few computers and no websites or easily accessible information. We gathered as a community to meet, play, share information and techniques. As well as to mentor and educate those who were new to their exploration.
Today, many seek information and knowledge from the internet which is abundant, but lacks personal attention and tutelage. The web is a poor substitution for being in a class room with a real teacher and personal attention.
I have designed SMU to truly mirror an academic educational experience. Throughout the series, there will be quizzes, reading and vocabulary assignments. There is also the equivalent of lab work through practical applications.
