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.

Ken and I are very excited to be involved with Playground Toronto! We’ll be giving the keynote at the Saturday night dinner plus teaching a class on pervertables earlier that same afternoon. All the details for our sessions at Playground are here. You can see ticket options and read about other sessions here.
Pervertables Class Description: What the heck is a pervertable? They are ordinary household objects you have converted over for sexy time fun. If you’ve ever picked up a spatula to spank your partner or used a neck tie as a wrist restraint, you’ve made a pervertable! Ken Melvoin-Berg and Sunny Megatron (host and Executive Producer for the Showtime original series Sex with Sunny Megatron) are a married couple that teaches together, works together and are “Ambassadors of Fuck” and will teach you how to take ordinary objects and make them into something fun (and cheap) you can use for sex. Join us with an open mind and a good sense of humor.
On Sunday well be teaching at Oasis Aqualounge nearby. Stay tuned for more details on that.
