(This is our 90th Paideia playshop.)
This playshop focuses on so-called "Florentine" flogging - using two
similar floggers, one in each hand. This workshop teaches several two-
handed techniques, including chases, butterfly, fanning, and three-
beat weave. Double flogging greatly extends your repertoire and
versatility.
This is a second-level flogging playshop. You'll get more out of it
if you already have solid skills in one-handed flogging (in each
hand), and perhaps have tried two-handed. Good preparation is to
practice flogging with your "off" hand. During the presentation we
will not repeat introductory flogging material. However, during the
hands-on part, we'll work with each attendee at whatever is their
current level. The class is aimed at intermediate and advanced
players, but may be suitable for some relative beginners.
This is a hands-on playshop. Bring floggers if you have them, but you
don’t need to bring anything. Flogging practice equipment will be
available if you don’t have your own. You may also bring your general
toy bag for the open practice period. You might also want a target
pillow.
We use special techniques borrowed from other disciplines, to make
learning the more intricate moves faster and easier.
The evening has three parts (times approximate):
7 - 7:30 Brown Bag Munch
7:30 - 8:00 Presentation and Demos
8:00 - 10:30 Guided Hands-on Double Flogging practice
Paideia (“pie DAY ah”) is a Greek word meaning “learning through
play”. Paideia evenings are more than regular workshops. First we
socialize. You may bring your dinner or snacks to eat during the
munch period. Then we see demos. Then we do the guided hands-on
workshop. You’ll mainly work in pairs learning and refining your
skills. Then during the open practice period, you may integrate your
new skills with other play techniques. Or you may do more practice,
or watch the variety of techniques that others practice.
Partners: You can practice solo, e.g. on a pillow, or in pairs. It’s
better to prearrange a lab partner, rather than try to pair up during
the munch period. If you want to find a suitable partner in advance,
we recommend you join and post on http://fetlife.com/groups/1780 and/
or http://edukink.tribe.net
Reservations not required. Membership not required. You don't need
to wear anything special. The event is open to anyone 18 years and
older with a sincere, positive, personal interest in BDSM / leather /
kink. All roles, genders, and orientations welcome. If you have
questions you may write to edukink at yahoo dot com

What attendees have said:
"I learned so much faster with it broken down this way."
"At last I can do that cool flogging."
“Paideia offers an amazing array of play styles. I’m really extending
my range.”
“A class, a mini-party, and a munch. The best way to spend a
Thursday. I come every month, no matter what the topic.”

“Double the fun: Florentine Flogging” is part of the Paideia series of
monthly BDSM/leather events / playshops mainly for those of
intermediate or advanced experience. The format intends to combine
the best elements of hands-on workshops, a munch, a play party, and a
peer workshop. More than a dozen topics are covered in these
playshops, on both common and exotic topics. We have a core study
group who increase the depth and breadth of their play each month, as
well as have fun together.
