What's love got to do, got to do with it? Well, maybe nothing at all... not that kind, anyway. For some, romantic attraction has absolutely nothing to do with sexual feelings. Some don't experience it at all. And for some it burns like a red hot flame until they become friends and then it goes away entirely! Confused yet? Or... maybe you feel like part of that was written about you. Join Delta, your favorite homoflexible-allosexual romance-averse aromantic leather coyote pup, for a journey through the murky waters of ever-changing microlabels to learn how differences in romantic attraction affect our relationships, sexual dynamics, and yes, even our kink and fetish play.
Are you new to fisting, or have questions on how you can advance your technique? This class will start beginners off on the right hand, while providing insights that even the most experienced fisters can learn from. This class will include a beginning guide and tutorial on techniques and methods tops can use to help their bottoms achieve either their first fist or their next goal. Etiquette, technique, tips and tricks, and philosophy of fisting will all be shared.
Service with a smile tackles the topic of service from a variety of angles. With a focus on looking inward, and asking the necessary questions so we can serve our best outward. An introspective introduction to service, this class is sure to put a smile on every side of the slash’s face!
Delta (he/him) is an easily excited, helplessly extroverted, absurdly kinky leather coyote pup with a passion for studying the history and philosophy of queer and kink communities, focusing on Leather and Pet Play. Not one to stick to theory, he spends as much time honing his skills as an active practitioner. Delta currently serves as Route 66 Pet 2025, a national education-focused title, which leads him to teach Pet Play, BDSM, and Queer History classes around the US. Back at home in Madison, Wisconsin, he also teaches Pet Play and related subjects at Bay Six Studio and at local events.
Ffalcon has been a versatile fister for over 15 years and few people have shaped modern fisting culture the way he has. His online presence helped launch fisting from a stigmatized practice into the cultural phenomenon it is today, bringing it to a new generation and redefining what safe, skilled play looks like. As a top, bottom, and educator, FFalcon developed his technique the hard way - years of hands-on experience that turned into a philosophy of care, communication, and skill. He has taught and influenced some of the most recognized names in fisting today, proving that the practice doesn’t require anything more than the right hands and the right mindset. Currently serving as Vice President of MAFIA, America’s longest running fisting club, FFalcon brings the same depth of knowledge to every workshop he leads.
Princess (it/its) is a queer, femme, disabled, BIPOC, TNG, leathergirl. It’s roles occupied include doll, property, sadomasochist, pet, ageplayer, and proud Chicagoan. It first graced the kink community with it's presence in 2021, where it has left every corner of the community it touches a little more pink and bright ever since. With service and respect to our history at the heart of everything it touches, it is one of the LA&M's 2026 community archiving grant recipients and has even made Leather history itself as the first educator to present on ponyplay at the International Puppy & Trainer Contest. In addition to it’s resume that includes being a presenter, panelist, organizer/facilitator, demo bottom, and more within the community it also co-founded the equine petplay group Midwest Equine Alliance. When its not having to people you can find this introverted s-type in the background serving it's community in some capacity, or engrossed in some Leather history - no matter what it’s doing it remains very much like it’s name, a princess. ¡WEPA!
