On The Edge, presents “Chips and Whips” an introduction to single tail whips, buggy whips and fun with food.
WHIPS: This seminar/playtime event will feature instruction and care of your whip. We will talk about the detailed differences in whips, length, type of leather, what the end of the whips are for etc. We will be instructing how to safely use them in BDSM scenes, we will not be doing any whip tricks or sideshow instruction.
CHIPS: Not California Highway Patrol (I know some of you children of the 80s were thinking oooh I get to be Ponch!), but actual food. We will be having all different sorts of potato chips and dips. We will also be making human chip bowls and human dip bowls, this gives double dipping a whole new meaning.
We will be playing games with chips, dips and whips in order to become familiar with the use of the single tails (Whip the Chip will be one game, guess where we put the chip?).
Bring a friend, bring a whip and please bring chips/or dip.
Class will conclude with open playtime at The Studio.

It seems everyone’s talking about non-monogamous relationships these days. Polyamory has recently been featured on prime time news shows, magazine covers and reality TV programs. If you’ve thought about exploring some form of non-monogamy, you’ve probably wondered:
Is there a difference between and open relationship and a polyamorous one? How do swinging and group sex factor in? What is the appropriate way to approach someone for a threesome? How is jealousy managed with multiple partners? Isn’t “open-relationship” just a fancy term for cheating? Are people poly because they like to have lots of sex? How I talk to my partner about opening up our relationship? What happens if I get jealous?
There is no magic formula for an open relationship or one right way to be poly. In this workshop Ken and Sunny explain different types of non-monogamous relationships and give you tools to craft and maintain a relationship that’s right for you (and them!).
This class is through Chicago’s Meow University
And will take place at:
Good Gyrrl Studio
