HMU Academy: Choking for Pleasure

About this event

Choking education and knowledge is not only for those administering the chokes.

For those receiving, you have an opportunity to learn what types of chokes are out there and what sensation you enjoy--or not! Learn the three types of chokes, risks, safety and how to engage in each of them during play.

There is more to negotiating choking than saying ‘okay we’re both going to choke each other.' Especially when dealing with something that has such a wide range from a light fantasy choke to someone passing out. You may not know what type of choking you or your partners are into and that's okay! The neck is a very sensitive and delicate area. Even so much as resting your hand on your neck can feel invasive, let alone someone else’s.

What to expect:

The first part of the class will be a discussion of safety followed by alternating demonstration and exercises/activities.

Who should attend:

This class is open to people of all skill and experience levels. Come with a partner or solo. Many of the movements can be practiced on yourself, and for those looking to practice with someone there will be a way to do that (although being able to practice with someone you don't know is not guaranteed).

About the Instructor:
