HMU Academy: The Art of Empowering Humiliation

This Hit Me Up event is open to the public, 21+.

About the Class

When most people hear “humiliation or degradation play,” they imagine being made to feel small, embarrassed, or emotionally broken down. They picture something harsh, scary, and rooted in negativity. But that’s only one narrow slice of what this kind of play can be. There is an entire world of healing, joy, empowerment, and confidence-building available when we intentionally explore emotional shadows with care, consent, and skill — turning shame into strength, fear into freedom, and cobwebbed corners of the psyche into sources of light and transformation.
This Valentine’s season, we’re learning how to make ’em blush — for healing, not heartbreak. Think playful teasing, intentional power exchange, and confidence-building edge play that leaves you glowing, grounded, and deliciously transformed.
