✦ Workshop Series Description ✦
Aimed at those who already have at least a solid foundation in kink/BDSM practice, in this workshop series Dr Pine and SparklyBulbasaur will take participants through the building blocks of risk aware edge play, with a focus on honesty and harm reduction. Each workshop is designed to build on the previous ones in the series, so attendance of the whole course is recommended where possible.
For the purposes of these workshops, we are defining edge play as play which has an intrinsically higher level of physical or psychological risk than other kinds of play.

✦ Class Description ✦
To conclude this workshop series, we will explore how to build and execute an interrogation scene. In an interrogation scene, the top's role is to get the bottom to reveal information and the bottom's role is to resist revealing it. A common fantasy, this can be enacted in various ways, from roleplay, to a battle of wills rooted in reality through game or challenge.
This workshop will start with a mini interrogation scene. We will then deconstruct the scene, before exploring the underlying principles of interrogation. We will also explore different approaches to interrogation.
This kind of play is the perfect way to incorporate the content of previous weeks into one scene, as during interrogation anything goes (within everyone's limits of course).
