About the Course

This class will provide a brief overview of the anatomy of the human body as it pertains to the nerves that provide sensory information to the skin, as well as the veins and arteries that nourish those same regions. Attendees will gain an understanding of why certain sensations from knife play are more intense than others, what regions of the body are safer to perform knife play, what areas are extremely dangerous to perform knife play, and how to mitigate risks to the delicate neurological and vascular structures.


While the demo portion of this class focuses on knife play, the anatomy and risk portions of the class pertains to all types of kink and BDSM activities.
