BIPOC Intro to Kink

Who is this class for? 

Kink can be powerful, liberating, and deeply affirming — but navigating it as a BIPOC person comes with unique considerations that are often overlooked in mainstream spaces. This class creates an intentional environment where Black, Indigenous, and People of Color can learn the foundations of BDSM without having to filter, code-switch, or explain their lived experiences. We’ll break down terminology, consent practices, negotiation skills, and the basics of common kinks in a way that centers cultural awareness and personal agency.

We’ll also examine how race, history, stereotypes, and systemic power dynamics intersect with kink. What does it mean to engage in power exchange when your body already exists inside real-world power structures? How do you separate fantasy from harm? This class makes room for those conversations — honestly and respectfully — while reinforcing that kink should always be consensual, informed, and chosen.

Whether you’re curious, brand new, or looking to build confidence before stepping into community spaces, this is your starting point. You’ll leave with practical tools for communication, safety strategies for play, and a clearer understanding of what feels aligned for you. Most importantly, you’ll leave knowing you’re not alone in exploring desire on your own terms.

About Your Instructor: Goddess Mak is a kink educator, dominatrix and proud Black queer woman from Chicago. Her interest in kink began 15 years ago when she met a domme in a human sexuality seminar course. That interaction birthed a curiosity that would blossom into one of her greatest joys- being a Femme-Domme. She’s passionate about empowering women and creating spaces for them to learn, grow and heal together. She currently teaches how to use restraints at Sexploratorium kink tastings, leads a monthly women’s empowerment circle and educates kinksters on domme-ing and more. 

All of our classes are intended for people 18 years of age and older. Spaces are limited, so reserve your spot now!
