Fluid of Life: Blood Scenes
Start Time: 1:00 PM
Fluid of Life: Blood Scenes
Join FifthAngel for a look into the erotic and spiritual art of releasing blood from the human body. We will begin with a safety talk on blood-borne pathogens and infection control. Then, FifthAngel will demonstrate how to perform simple capillary bleeding and progress to more invasive techniques such as arterial bloodletting. This is not a class based on Vampirism, and is not for the squeamish.
Saturday, Dec. 8th
1pm-3pm (doors open at 12:30pm)
Admission: $20 at the door
A martial artist, critical care nurse, and all-around sexual sadist, FifthAngel extracts various elements from his extensive background in martial arts, weapons and firearms training to help create some of the most emotionally and mentally challenging scenes known to BDSM. Adding the title of author to his hobbies, he has written two books, "The Finer Points of Pain and Pleasure," a how-to guide for using pressure points in BDSM scenes, and "Your Pain, My Pleasure: Inside the Mind of a Sexual Sadist."
Branded for playing on the edge, FifthAngel at times demonstrates sexual sadism in its purest sense - a sexual sadist does not enjoy seeing the bottom orgasm from pain. Rather, a sexual sadist is happy seeing the bottom NOT getting pleasure from the emotional or physical pain they are experiencing.
With a goal to educate others to deepen their emotional experiences through BDSM and rites of passage, he has expanded his teachings and demonstrations to include spiritual piercing and flesh hooks. FifthAngel remains an equal opportunity sadist and is always happy to work with volunteers among workshop attendees.
An edge player in all aspects of his life, he enjoys vertical rock and ice climbing as well as high altitude mountaineering.

Contact with Law Enforcement at BDSM related events is rare, but the potential problems that can come from a negative police contact can be unpleasant at best. So, how do you deal with an unexpected Law Enforcement contact in a BDSM setting? The presenter, a veteran police officer with a major metropolitan department, has worked in patrol, training, detectives, as a patrol supervisor, and completed his career as a field commander.
In this class, we will offer some strategies play spaces and event organizers can employ to lessen exposure to police action for themselves and their guests. We will talk about how consent does, and does not protect play partners, play between Domestic Partners, and discuss some higher profile past cases. But most importantly, we will look at the real world aspect and offer some practical information on "What should you do when they're knocking at the door
