Single tails are ever-present in the dungeon, with their telltale crack that pierces the space and sends shivers up your spine. Join me while I share my passion for this iconic symbol of our BDSM/leather culture. I’ve been throwing whips and putting the “ow” in “wow” since 2008. This class is intended for all skill levels, from the curious novice to the expert. Many classes focus on technique (and I will get there). But first, this will be taught from the perspective of what a bottom should be aware of and look for in a single tail top. This, in turn, will inform the tops about what they should aspire to become. We will then cover some throwing techniques. I’ll demonstrate how to practice and develop your skills.
