WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION
Whether as a form of fear play, an interesting new sensation or a shortcut to an endorphin high, needles have a lot to offer as a form of kinky play. However, when you start breaking skin it’s a good idea to know the risks, rewards and rules of what you’ll be doing!
This workshop will be a solid introduction to the realms of surface piercing/needle play covering the essential information around: risks/risk profiles, negotiation essentials, hygiene and safety, keeping connected, technique, and considerations for moving forward and expanding skills.
There will be a demo section of the workshop which un-partnered attendees can learn from but in order to keep the quality of teaching high, there is a play space for a maximum of 16 pairs of attendees for the practical section of this workshop. If you are attending the practical section as a needle play bottom then you must eat before the workshop. It's also important to have water and sugary snacks after needle play.
Please note: it is essential to disclose if you have any communicable blood borne pathogens to your workshop partner. We also advise that pairs don't switch as needle play is a high intensity activity.
Level: Beginner
WORKSHOP HOST BIO
Miss Emphasis has been running around on the fetish scene for about 5 years, but has been kinky for far longer than that. She is involved with multiple events, including running Femphasis and co-running the Queer Emphasis Munch. With experience and skills across various kinky activities, her interest in needles was sparked 2 years ago and she has since honed her skills through solo explorations, play with others and by training as a body piercer.
She brings both her professional piercing experience and her kink experience to her needle work.
