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.
Presenter: Hawke
Master Hawke is a kink educator, presenter, and pillar of the Colorado Springs kink and leather communities. He began teaching in 2009 and has over 15 years of experience in power exchange dynamics. A pyromancer, a whip artist, and a shameless exhibitionist, he can frequently be found performing demos, offering tastings, and teaching classes around the Colorado Springs and Denver Metro areas. He is a self-proclaimed “unrepentant fire slut” who was drawn in by the energy and fear of fire play. Over the course of his years in BDSM, Master Hawke has sought to find and create connected community through authentic self expression. Through this journey he was given the opportunity to examine his paradoxical nature and craft a sense of the dynamic tension underpinning his desires. He now has a passion for creating spaces to help others find acceptance and explore their own desires in alternative lifestyles. He is a servant leader with experience organizing and facilitating events that empower meaningful self-realization and foster connection. Master Hawke is buoyed by loving, supportive partners and friends. When he’s not engaged in some glorious debauchery or enduring the insanity of his mentee, he might be enjoying a glass of Macallan with a Perdomo stick. A little cliche for a middle-aged white dude? Sure, but don’t count him out too soon. Oh, he’s also got a beard, so yeah.
