SAN FRANCISCO—Spartacus Leathers sponsors this year’s Intro to Kink workshop at San Francisco State University on Wednesday, Oct. 21.

We’re proud to have been in this industry, educating and providing products to any who are interested in kink, for 28 years; we’re happy to see educational institutions are expanding their offerings to students with these sort of workshops.”
As part of SFSU’s EROS (Education and Referral Organization for Sexuality) annual program offerings, “Intro to Kink: Bondage, Fetish, & Sadomasochism” will cover:
The what (and why) behind BDSM Consent, negotiation, and communication Private vs public BDSM play
Basics of Dominance & submission
Bondage techniques: much more than rope (opportunity for hands-on practice)
Impact play: spanking, flogging, caning, whipping
The 10 most popular kinks and fetishes
The workshop is led by BDSM dominant, performer, bestselling co-author, porn actor, and sex educator Danarama, best known as one of the “Two Knotty Boys” rope bondage instruction duo, and since 2014 has been the full-time Director of KinkUniversity.com, the educational wing of Kink.com.

"We are so happy to have sponsorship from Spartacus Leathers for our Intro to Kink workshop,” said Reyna Aguilar, Director of EROS. “As a nonprofit organization at a state university, it is not easy to come by support for our educational kink and fetish events; yet we still continue to do them, because we recognize the importance of these classes in our community. Thanks to Spartacus Leathers, we are able to offer additional resources for our students!"
