   1. 9-10:15am - Introduction to the Spanking Scene w/Miss Chris

      1. Welcome to the incredible world of spanking, domestic discipline and corporal punishment! This isn't just an activity for us, the spanking scene is a community all onto its own. We'll talk about the activities that comprise spanking play, of course, but we will also talk about our culture, our history, some issues facing the community and where things might be headed next. Basic spanking event/party etiquette will be touched on so you know that spanking parties are a different breed of BDSM event, with considerations of our own. All are welcome to join in the spanko fun!

   2. 10:30-11:45am - Why Wood Matters: Sensation, Mechanics, and Safety with Wooden Spanking Paddles w/Spencer of LRS

      1. Join Spencer from LRS for a comprehensive, hands-on dive into the craftsmanship, physics, and profound connection of spanking and impact play.

         Why Wood Matters strips away the intimidation of wooden implements and replaces it with technique, anatomical awareness, and a touch of history.

         Spanking isn't always a punishment dynamic; it can be a beautiful celebration of self, strength, and resilience. But to honor that, the recipient must get what they deserve: a conscientious and capable deliverer. Whether you’re a seasoned top or a beginner practicing your swings on the arm of the couch, this class will elevate your mechanics and your mindset.

   3. 12:45-2pm - Straps and Belts w/ Theo of AZTrunk

      1. Belts & Straps and the why/how we used them for Spanko play. This class Theo will share his learning the many variations of belts/strap, how to apply their use along with some history behind them. Intent for this class is for you to walk away with insights into what type of belts/straps you really like along with how to use them. You will have lots of class time practicing techniques and receiving so you know how each feels. Theo and other experts will be coaching during this time to help.

   4. 2:15-3:30pm - Spanko Word Salad w/Kelsey Lynn

      1. "Little girl, you’re going to get a spanking!"

         
         

         "Young man, go to your room. I’ll be in to give you a spanking."

         
         

         "Pull down your panties and bend over."

         
         

         Sigh…….

         
         

         Do these phrases do anything to you? Do they take you someplace else when you hear them?

         
         

         Since entering the scene three years ago as a Spanko I have come to realize that words and phrases are essential in getting me into the headspace to take my scenes where I want them to go. To be honest, they are almost more important than the spanking itself. Although the spanking has to happen in order for me to be completely fulfilled in any scene.

         
         

         Today, I hope to share with you some of the words and phrases that I have come to realize send me into amazing headspace.

         
         

         I want to hear from you too because maybe you have words and phrases I haven’t heard or thought of before they can help me in my scenes.

         
         

         My goal today is to help you “possibly top from the bottom” to get your top to say the words to you to help you take your scenes to another level.

   2. 10:30-11:45am - We Are Not Alone: How Spanking Smut Shaped Our World, or, How Clandestine Publishing Preserved the Literature of Flagellation, Defied the Moralists, and Connected Enthusiasts Across the Centuries w/Abby of LRS

A captivating journey through the historical timeline of underground publishing, exploring how 18th, 19th and 20th-century clandestine imprints defied censors to keep flagellation literature (spanking smut) alive. This presentation dives into the hidden networks and forgotten authors that preserved our secret histories, proving that enthusiasts have been finding each other across the decades long before the digital age.

   3. 12:45-2pm - The Cane Connection: A Beginners Guide to Free Form Caning w/Gloryus

Basic cane knowledge will be shared at the beginning, emphasizing safety and providing talking points and topics to help you approach canes yourself. A live demonstration of combined techniques on a willing bottom will round out this presentation.

   4. 2:15-3:30pm - An English Schoolgirl's Guide to the Cane

      1. Ah, the cane, the cruel and dreaded cane. As the quintessential tool of corporal punishment in many English schools for the better part of a century, the fearful image of a crook-handled rattan became so deeply embedded in the island’s cultural consciousness that the enduring obsession with its use was once disparagingly dubbed “The English Vice”. The legacy of that fascination remains strong in our world of consensual adult spanking, continuing to shape some of the most popular fantasies and tropes of That Thing We Do. But what are the roots of this craze for caning? How does genuine history inform our recreational use of the cane? What constitutes a “true” English caning, and how can we build engaging and creative scenes around it? Join Pet Emily, (former) English schoolgirl and lifelong devotee of the cane, as she separates fact from fiction, and gives you a taste of what “six of the best” can really mean.
