Description: In the lifestyle there are many forms of service. At one time or another we’ve come across s-types fetching a drink, in service as butlers, domestics, play bottoms, sexual slaves, etc. What if we went a step further and curated the intention behind our service, to create a genuine and more elevated affair? “A valet’s toolkit” will be an introduction level class, exploring valet service, valet toolkits, valet books, and how to make it more accessible and inclusive. Come prepared also for a discussion exploring valet service and all its many facets, from being the one receiving the service, to the one giving the service.
2:00 2:45pm Topping from a Bottoms Perspective presented by Leia
Description: A scene presented from a long time bottom now in a top role. This class is for everyone on either side of the slash.
