The "Now we dance! Now we fight" Dance/Fight party
It started with a vision. A vision of Germans in a slightly alternate dimension. A dimension where the only way to dance to German techno was under the strict supervision of a leader. The leader would announce "And now we dance!" and they dance dance dance, only to be followed by "And now we fight!" whereupon a raging fist fight would break out. Soon enough, the leader barks "And now we dance!", fists are dropped, and they stomp dance once more. It was a very silly vision. And now we bring this vision to you. Join us and alternate between internal states of joy and (joyful) rage as rapidly as we alternate between dancing and (pillow) fighting. Pillows provided. 4pm - 5:30pm

Wundermärchen ~ Wunder Talespinning
Saturday at 5pm, we present the scarcely documented... more rarely heard… authentic, ancient Germanic MÄRCHEN. Guaranteed that you both will and won’t recognize something in this treasure trove of “household tales” that were later perverted into today’s more childish “Grimm’s Fairy Tales.” Let the accompanying drumbeats boost your imagination to flights of fancy as visions of king’s daughters, frogs and handsome princes float by. No one ever said THESE tales were meant for children’s ears…

5:00 PM - House of Bacchus
"Choke Me Daddy" Breathplay Fundamentals
Breath play is edgy, dark and dangerous, primal and animalistic; the need to breathe is core to life, and tapping into that fear can be intoxicating! It can be disorienting, terrifying, engaging... for some people it brings on heightened sensation and for others submission. It brings an incredible sense of intimacy, focus, and connection. Breath play isn't exclusively about around a hand around the neck, it's also suspending oxygen in creative ways. It's imperative that players understand the importance of safety and risk in this special type of play. Taught by a professional Dominatrix with over 15 years experience, this will be combined lecture and hands-on practice, pun intended.  Class participants will learn the following: - Understanding personal responsibility in your kink practice - Anatomy of the head, neck and chest and understanding hypoxia - Communication and negotiations, before, during, and aftercare -The dangers of breath play, auto asphyxiation, and how to mitigate risk - Safer and creative breath play techniques - Dealing with triggers and trauma during edge play - What to do in an emergency situation when things do not go as planned - Differences in types of oxygen deprivation (blood deprivation vs air/oxygen deprivation) This class will be half lecture and half hands-on, and while it’s not required to bring a partner, bringing someone to practice with will be the best way to get the most out of it.
