Bridgett Harrington
Bridgett Harrington is a fetishist, erotic educator, author, Dominatrix, bondage model and artist, and tech geek, and in general is far too busy for her own good. Her two websites, RopeLover.com and BlackBookArt.com, are her most active projects, and being a pervert who has been part of the SM community for 10 years everywhere from Seattle to London, England, keeps her hands full as well. A predominantly private practitioner, Bridgett's eclectic paganism is heavily rooted in her upbringing as the daughter of an Irish Catholic and a Goddess Worshiping Lutheran.
She has been part of CUUPs (Covenant of Unitarian Universalist Pagans), GoddesSMack (a pagan dyke SM circle in Portland, OR), serves as a Domina/Priestess for Temple of Atonement (Atoning and Educating Burning Man and the World), and actively incorporates bondage and other forms of BDSM into her spiritual workings. She is glad to be returning again to Dark Odyssey with her partner, Adam Jarvey, for another year of decadence, debauchery, connection, fireside chats and uplifting ritual work.
Rope Sex- Bondage For Lovemaking and More (hands on)
Rope bondage is a wonderful tool for spicing up your sex life- from binding legs open for access to the loins to turning a bed into somewhere a lover can't escape from, giving into their desires. We will learn how to make simple restraints for spread-eagle poses or binding lovers to chairs, as well as exploring ways to bind limb to limb, body to body, crotch ropes (and how to convert them into pieces that can be fucked through), and more. Let's explore and think creatively about techniques for adding bondage to your style of sensuality and sex.Foot Fetishism, Worship and Torture (demo, hands on)
The foot has been known throughout history to be an item of desire- whether fetishized in the form of high heels or foot binding, submissives begging to give their mistress a pedicure, or an erotic masseuse reaching the genitals by way of the feet. But feet are not just for bottoms to play with. Bastinado (foot beating) was a common practice in dungeons of old, and the gay leather icon of the strong Daddy adoring the boy who is licking his boot is still strong. Why to feet tantalize us? How can we worship them? How can we abuse them? Let’s look at heels, arches, toes (clad in hosiery, socks or bare), the gentle curve of the ankle… and see where this delicious fetish can take us as a Top, bottom, Dominant or submissive.Take My Breath Away- Breath and Air Flow Play (demo)
Breath play is the black sheep of the BDSM family- but folks ARE doing it. Get real. Let’s discuss why and how folks are playing, then plunge into the styles that exist out there, from gas masks to choking, bagging to shared breath play, tantric breathing to nooses and more. This stuff makes us hot, so fess up- you are not alone. We will also touch on auto-erotic breath play, complicated breath play scenes, and health issues involved in breath play.
