Connections - Putting Emotions Into Play
If getting the bottom spacey, happy, and experiencing a good connection is the focus of play, this workshop may be for you.
These ideas can most any emotion or sensation in play, orgasm, playfulness, arousal and more.

Getting a partner feeling that way, has way more to do with communication, emotion, and what's going on inside our minds than physical technique. And there are all sorts of ways to get to sub-space. This workshop focuses on the idea of connecting with your partner, mentally, emotionally as well as physically. These ideas apply to first-time play partners, as well as intensifying what you already have naturally with a long-term, loving partner. You'll get a chance to try some of the ideas and you can find out what fits for you.

First Things First - Where do you want to take them?

Two Easy Things - Do this to establish rapport and make it easy for them to follow your lead. Also useful for social situations, business, even seduction.

The Physical - Your physicality and theirs. Deepening connections.

Communicating and Intensifying Emotions.

Do More Than Just Walk In Their Moccasins. Empathy CAN be learned.

A Practical Approach to Hypnosis - This helps intensifies what someone already if feeling... or wants to feel. If you've struggled with using hypnosis, this is something I originally learned from John Grinder years ago. It's overt, consensual, a team effort that works easily.

Ask Not What You Can Do For Your Audience - Public Play and how the 'audience' can enhance rather than distract.

Testamonial from a woman I have played with:

After playing with Raymond, I wanted to learn more about how he set up our scenes. I noticed that we took a moment to connect and take some breaths together. But other than that, how he got me into a floaty headspace before we even played, was a total mystery to me!! I was eager to understand and learn about his approach.
The class was incredible... and it all started making perfect sense! It was so Interesting to learn how simple techniques like the use of touch, as well as simple words and phrases, make such a difference in preparing for play.
His approach really deepens the level of play for both partners...and allows the bottom to begin the journey into subspace even before the scene starts. I think the techniques he teaches help provide a sense of trust and comfort so that the bottom can just relax, let go, and enjoy the ride. Every touch, word, and phrase are very purposeful in connecting with your partner. He teaches about energy and connection in a way that's easy to learn. When I was in his class and when I've played with him, it's something that I could feel, and it made it some of my best, most emotional scenes. Myself and others in the class were able to apply these ideas right away!

Intimate Rituals

Do you have any BDSM Rituals? If you've taken the time to develop one, it already means something.

Think about the ritual you're involved in, and what kind of feelings come from that. Would you like that feeling to be stronger? Even more profound? What if the ritual included the values you share with your partner? Not just from words that you speak. But the actions of the ritual, put you both on the same page in a way that both of you can feel.

When I first developed my BDSM rituals, the main purpose was to slow down, focus, and make a transition from whatever we were doing before. I started the ritual as a way to allow both myself and my submissive to get into the right frame of mind, to make the transition from the world out there, to our private world of Dominance and submission. They might have had a day where the project is delayed because of staff incompetence, then as they leave work there's a parking ticket on their car and construction makes them late getting home. Then they're supposed to sweetly surrender to you with grace and poise. The ritual gives us a moment to breathe, and connect. Our ritual makes our roles clear and gets us into the right frame of mind to perform those roles. As it evolved, it became a way to amplify emotions, and let those emotions evolve. It's added meaning beyond what I first intended. In our lives, we have many roles. Worker, lover, parent, employee/employer. Were you in the military? You have been a killer and a destroyer of worlds. Literally. Then you fly home and have trouble getting your kids to brush their teeth. Roles are real. Rituals can help you get to where you need to be, to take on that role to the fullest and become even more meaningful.
