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.
About the Instructor:
Ken Melvoin-Berg owns Weird Chicago Tours and the Midwest’s premier S&M Dungeon, The Studio. As a Lecturer and Sexstorian, he is the creator of On The Edge (a lecture/film series on BDSM). In addition to authoring 14 books on various subjects, Ken edits and writes numerous articles on sexuality.
He travels around the world teaching kink awareness to various private groups and continually develops new kink-friendly/sex positive classes.
Ken is responsible for the infamous Northwestern University Fucksaw controversy while teaching his class, Networking for Kinky People. Sunny Megatron is his partner in crime in his perverted adventures.
On The Edge is offering “Give Me The Code,” an Intelligence Gathering Interrogation workshop with Ken Melvoin-Berg (@Kreamy) and Fetlife’s @Happy-Venom. These two gentlemen (well, always polite but not necessarily gentle!) are former Special Forces military folks (ok technically, Ken was only “elite,” not special) involved with interrogation or its aftercare.
Get ready to delve into extreme edge play, psychological play, pressure points, electric persuasion, water tortures and more!
Throughout the course of the evening Ken and Mr. Venom will address interrogation, confirmation and reward plus some of the extreme tactics the intelligence community uses to retrieve top secret information. They will also look at after effects including psychological aftercare, PTSD, Stockholm Syndrome, etc.
There will be much more information here than your typical BDSM Interrogation class– this is the real deal! To facilitate learning and bring together all of the elements discussed, they will conduct an intense live interrogation scene for the class.
Class will conclude with Q & A followed by open playtime at The Studio.

“G-spot? I don’t get it? I bought all the funny shaped toys, did the ‘come hither’ motion with my fingers and nothing. Maybe I don’t have one?“
Rest assured, you do have a g-spot, however, it can be difficult to find and even more difficult to conquer. Join Ken and Sunny for a thorough lesson on the g-spot guaranteed to teach you a few tips and tricks you won’t find in the latest sex blog article.
In this class you’ll learn how to find the g-spot, ways to manipulate it and how to combine g-spot play with other types of stimulation. We’ll dispel the myths about female ejaculation and teach you which techniques and tools are most likely to turn you into Old Faithful.
This class is open to givers and receivers of all genders and sexual orientation.

Join Sunny and Ken for a memorable afternoon of fun and fellatio! Unlike other blow job classes, this one is taught from both a giver and receivers prospective.
We’ll go over anatomy, technique, safer sex tools, the etiquette of swallowing and spitting plus extras like hand jobs and perineal/prostate massage. We’ll also talk about what goes through your head while giving or getting head: get tips on how to get into the right headspace (<– not so accidental pun), how to give a confident blow job, how to battle a sore jaw, what to do if you have a small mouth, how to figure out what your partner likes best and a lot more.
This will be an interactive evening as participants have the option to practice everything they learn on their very own “stunt cock.” And of course, with Ken and Sunny, the class is sure to provide lots of laughter!
This class is open to givers and receivers of all genders and sexual orientation. It is also a lot of fun to attend as a couple.

Class Description
If you think electrosex toys are only for pain and hardcore BSDM scenes, think again! While they can be used to bring your play partner mercifully to their knees, a simple setting adjustment can bring sensual, erotic play to your bedroom. You can even use electric toys to kick back and enjoy hands free orgasms!
During this class, you’ll get to try out a number of e-stim toys along with a wide variety of their attachments and accessories. Whether you’re new to electric play or a seasoned pro, like things on the vanilla side or are a heavy S&M player, you’ll learn how to tailor electrosex tools to suit your specific needs.
Ken Melvoin-Berg and Sunny Megatron will cover applications for every type of player, giving you both the basics and walking you through advanced techniques. You’ll also learn about alternate uses and get a sneak peek at some brand new products not yet on the market.
