TONIGHT! 7:30pm-midnight at Alchemy 1060 Folsom, San Francisco, 94103



Refined over centuries, there is really no culture in the world quite like
the British when it comes to discipline and punishment, for strictness,
ritual, rules, uniform, and of course severe pain! With practical
demonstrations, Val and j (perhaps with a little help from their friends)
will show how discipline and punishment has been used in nearly every
aspect of British society to elicit awe, fear, shame, humiliation, and even
honor and pride, often accompanied by searing pain and a striped backside.
Drawing on extensive personal experience of being on the receiving end,
they will show you how to reproduce these practices and rituals to harness
the deliciously stiff, uncompromising and strict qualities of British
discipline and punishment for your own ends and needs. Whether for a
raucous school caning role-play, the training of a traditional maid
servant, or the quite genuine punishment of an errant submissive… All this
and more is given the royal British treatment in this fun, informative and
practice-based workshop.
