Dominus-Absolutus Posted January 19, 2020 Posted January 19, 2020 Hi all i have been practicing BDSM for 7 years and have an incredible story to tell, but so far I have only ever met partners through word of mouth either friends of friends or at work. i have recently given BDSM classes to two couples which have been successful and would like to take it further. i was thinking of either private BDSM classes with me (or my sub if they prefer) and group classes (3 or more couples) im unsure about teaching individuals as apart from my own subs in the past I don’t know how that would work. can anyone give me some ideas on feasibility and execution? i can answer any questions? thanks
Ky**** Posted January 20, 2020 Posted January 20, 2020 Tbh this kinda sounds like a variation on sex therapy, or like a serology seminar. I'd contact your local sexologist and see if they have any pointers
Deleted Member Posted January 21, 2020 Posted January 21, 2020 Very interested in BDSM classes for myself only 😘😘
Deleted Member Posted January 23, 2020 Posted January 23, 2020 This thread looks to me very much like an advertisement, with a direct email link. I don’t think that’s allowed, is it? Wouldn’t you be better placing an ad, rather than posting this on a forum?

I pasted the whole in in as-is
Dominus-Absolutus Posted January 25, 2020 Author Posted January 25, 2020 I have written up a description. I am also reposting but without contact details so it doesn’t look like an advertisement. sex therapy classes I suppose sound kinda like an apt description, but therapy more implies assisting with obstacles or impediments which if addressed could allow for some sort of advantage or reward. Whilst yes my BDSM classes could help couples improve their relationships, I also see it as something happy couples without any problems could also benefit from. anyway here is my description. can i have your thoughts? - thanks. ————————- BDSM Classes for couples who want to explore the intimacy excitement and spiritual connection only BDSM can offer through the theory, history, biology and examples - as well as practical sessions and demonstrations!

But I have to stress these are classes so can i ask what it is you would like to learn? Are you a sub or a dom and how much experience do you have? Are you male or female and is your partner experienced too? if you are interested genuinely then i am happy to tutor any serious student. let me know and we can contact each other to make an arrangement?
Dominus-Absolutus Posted January 29, 2020 Author Posted January 29, 2020 So I genuinely posted this to try get some feedback on the idea of starting comprehensive BDSM classes. The most interactive response I received was one that suggested im advertising (which was not my intention) I want to know if there are anyone who already has visited such a class and can give feedback or what someone would want from such a class? its not meant to be actual classes, not one to one meetings of practical sessions but more structured as university lectures. An academic thing. cant anyone help?
ey**** Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 I've been to assorted workshops and discussion groups. These seem to be different to what you're proposing - but while also there are many who do this sort of peer learning via munches. But also. You cite 7 years experience - I also have 7 years experience but wouldn't feel bold enough to offer education as you are. but also what academics and qualifications do you have to back this up? there's been a little bit of twitter spat recently involve a Domme who claimed to be a counsellor (who, well, wasn't) - do you have the relevant background to teach this ? I'm not trying to be either against or for - but - like a lot of things - what can you offer that's different from my prior point?
Phoenyx Posted January 30, 2020 Posted January 30, 2020 I think it's a noble effort, that you wish to share your skill and experience. However, you will be facing a lot of competition. Virtually every powerful Dom and Domme wishes to start their own BDSM academy. Consequently, such business ventures tend to have a success rate less than that of new restaurants. I would suggest starting slow. Offer BDSM classes as a sideline to your regular practice. Schedule counseling and tutoring sessions as you would your other sessions. Be aware, that for tutoring, you will only be able to charge half, or even a third, of your regular hourly rate. Sadly, it's the reality of supply-and-demand. If you could organize groups of three couples to a class, that would be great. The BDSM classes would be large enough to pay for your time, yet still small enough to allow for individualized instruction. Are you truly offering anything new or unique? Are you looking to teach hands-on courses, like flogging technique, rope safety, or slave training and protocol? Such BDSM classes could benefit greatly from the personal touch. However, such classes are also commonly offered by local, non-profit BDSM groups. Back in San Francisco, the Society of Janus held courses on everything from bullwhip technique, to pro Dommes giving their take on "topspace". BDSM Classes were free to members, and membership was amazingly cheap. Consequently, you would need to stress that your instruction is more individualized, hands-on, and in-depth. If you are going for BDSM classes that are more lecture-based, you may be offering information that is already freely available on forums, like this one. You might want to browse through this forum's discussion topics. At the very least, check out threads started by Eyemblacksheep, Jinx, Fredddy, and myself. You may find that a lot of your topics have already been covered. Well, I hope that this has been of some help. I know, I have presented a rough road. Still, this was not meant to discourage. It is merely a cautionary tale. Feel free to message me, if you have any questions. I wish you all-the-luck in your new endeavor.
Nu**** Posted April 2, 2020 Posted April 2, 2020 Based in the UK, any mention of delivering therapy and you'll have to be appropriately certified with the appropriate regulatory body. It keeps everyone safe. Life coaching is a grey area here, but do have voluntary organisations that help promote best practices.
cautiousswitch Posted April 3, 2020 Posted April 3, 2020 Practicing as in you have acted as a professional or practicing as in you've had some kinky relationships? Serious people are more likely to take lessons from a professional, not because they call themselves professional but because they are more likely to have information about themselves out where it can be found. This isn't something you do because someone put a flyer on a local bulletin board; you make sure the person offering the lessons really knows what they are talking about. Where would the BDSM classes be held? Again, a professional would have a play space that they would advertise so that perspective students could check it out. Going to a stranger's house or apartment because he's offering BDSM classes sounds a bit more sketchy. A more neutral place could be rented for lessons, but that would take more organization with the students. I don't know about sex therapy laws in the UK, but in the US as long as it was clear that this was only an educational workshop you wouldn't have those problems. On the other hand, different states have different health regulations and sometimes cleanliness that would be acceptable by the kink community in general is not enough for the state. Personally, if I was doing a couples training session I would rather it be just the instructor, my partner and myself rather than a group training.
