Impact play is a big part of many people’s kink, whether it’s sensuous, erotic, challenging, or cathartic. All types of impact play share common elements, and each has its own unique flavor. Join Max for an impactful journey through the various types of impact toys as he shows you how to create a variety of sensations and scenes.
Max will cover technique, safety, shopping for toys, and how to match your intention to your practice. You’ll see and experience toys from Lover’s Lair’s extraordinary selection and from Max’s private collection. We’ll also discuss how to use your built-in impact toy – your hand.
Whether impact play is used for pleasure, pain, discipline or power exchange, the options are unlimited. If you’re just starting to explore your kink, why not add it to your BDSM repertoire? And if you’re a seasoned kinkster, join us and learn a few new tips!
Workshop format
The workshop includes lecture, many demos, and opportunities to see what the various toys feel like. If you’ve brought a willing partner we’ll also have opportunities for you to use the toys on them.
By the end of this workshop you’ll have all the information you need to evaluate and purchase impact toys, to negotiate competently, and to incorporate these toys into your play.

This workshop assumes no previous BDSM experience, and is appropriate for all genders, all orientations, and for tops and bottoms.
Afterwards
Attendees receive an illustrated handout full of principles, safety information, and basic technique. Attendees also receive a 20% discount coupon for purchases at Lover's Lair.
