On the Edge: Cryoplay (BDSM play with extreme cold and ice) @ The Studio (10 min SW of Downtown Chicago)
Sep 22 @ 9:00 PM – 12:00 AM

Ice and cold are not new. Technology and chemistry have given us some amazing advances in this realm. Ken Melvoin-Berg, our resident science geek and sexpert, will be teaching this edge play seminar.

We will be learning about the procurement, gear, safety issues and background of using liquid nitrogen (LN2), frozen carbon dioxide (dry ice) and frozen water (ice) play. This class will be a demo learning class only.

Disclaimer: Liquid nitrogen play is very extreme but is actually less dangerous than rope bondage.

We will be addressing the medical/aftercare side of all this play as well. Hypothermia, cold burns, lacerations and asphyxiation are all dangers in this sort of play. We will help you identify and treat these issues before they become a problem.

This event is at The Studio in Chicago, IL. All our events are clean and sober, the age limit is for people 18 and up. Please have IDs available at the door.

Due our extreme cost of obtaining the equipment and chemicals needed for the demo, we are charging $20 in advance or $30 at the door. No refunds will be given for advance payment.

RSVP to Ken aka at [email protected] with the word “CRYOPLAY” as the subject. To forward advance payment, use paypal to [email protected].

This will put you on the list and give you the location for this event. We expect it to sell out as we are getting the same sort of interest that we had in our interrogation class, so register early.

The book 50 Shades of Grey brought S&M out of the shadows and into the spotlight. It also left many of us wondering how to safely incorporate all those delicious things we read about into our own bedrooms.

In this class Ken Melvoin-Berg and Sunny Megatron take you through the elements of BDSM: Bondage & Discipline, Dominance & Submission and Sadomasochism. They also cover pre-negotiation/contracts, toys & tools, role-play, meeting other kinksters, the differences between BDSM and abuse, physical and mental safety plus much more.

Whether you aim to dive into the BDSM lifestyle or simply want to incorporate a little kink in the bedroom, you’ll walk away with the tools and confidence you need to get and give the most out of kinky play.

This class is suitable for those single or partnered. Persons of all gender identities, sexual orientation, kink interests and activity levels welcome.
