Join us for a very special visit with three of the most iconic beloved Elders in Leather HerStory.

*Their title choice!

We believe service is an integral part of maintaining a M/s dynamic. But not all service tasks are “equal” in impact – service can be “big” but add little value to the overall relationship, or “small” in scope but huge in impact. As your lives become busier and the demands of the outside world increase, consider the concept of “tiny service” – how to find the little acts of service that make big differences. Join Master Jim and slave marsha as they share how and why the concept of “tiny service” became important to them, how to assess the impact of a task on your relationship, and some ideas for finding the “tiny service” that’s right for you.

As AI technologies evolve and become more accessible, even those of us who are tech-shy can enhance our service offerings—no coding required. Whether you’re aiming to boost your efficiency, spark your creativity, or amplify your impact, this lighthearted discussion will explore how emerging tech can elevate your service while enriching the invaluable “human touch” in your dynamic. Bring your practical tips, fresh ideas, burning questions, or great stories (both the successes and the spectacular flops!) about how digital technology can complement and enhance our service practices. This interactive discussion and skillshare is perfect for beginners and enthusiasts alike—come curious, and leave inspired!

In this class, we’ll cover:

• The core principles that define M/s and how to adapt them to fit your unique relationship.
• The importance of negotiation, consent, and communication in establishing trust and clarity.
• How personal experiences, identity, and values shape the power exchange dynamic and influence leadership styles.
• Practical tools and strategies for setting clear expectations, boundaries, and goals that work for both the Master and the slave.
• Real-world challenges faced in M/s relationships and effective methods for overcoming them.

Masters want slaves to be the best slaves they can be, and slaves want that too … but how do we get from point A to point B? What are the best methods for changing behavior and attitude – not just facilitating obedience, but helping to achieve joy as well? In this intensive, we’ll talk about our best techniques for modifying a slave’s behavior in the most effective and fulfilling ways for each couple. We’ll talk about effective tools for masters, and help slaves get past their fears around being changed. We’ll also help troubleshoot past problems with obedience and attitude.

Becoming a fully-faceted self-actualized individual requires having integrity. Integrity is defined as “knowing and accepting one’s self.” To the extent we hide who we are, we cripple our own capacity to become wholly immersed in our dynamic. “Acceptance” is a two-way street. And, it begins by having the courage to be seen.

Come share ideas and perspectives for busy people!

Drawing on personal and professional experiences, slave Caroline offers some provocative thoughts on the beneficial function of envy and jealousy in our Master slave dynamics.

Increasingly more of us do so with an intuitive understanding that at times what we do is ‘therapeutic’. Some in our community further the belief of this therapeutic factor as a beneficial structure for Master slave dynamics. Is it? If so, when do we know when therapeutic is not therapy? Drawing from her personal and professional experiences, slave caroline seeks to examine the intrinsic value and danger of this “therapeutic” function in our Master slave relationships.

We will explore the ways toxic heteronormative gender norms have hurt our community and how to uncouple them from our kinky lives.

As a community we are familiar with consent violations in relation to BDSM play. But for those of us called to the dark edges of Master/slave or Consensual Non-Consent Dynamics (CNC) – given the potential risk and harm to our person(s), what and where are the boundaries of consent? What is a consent breach in a CNC Dynamic? And what are the risks for both sides of the slash?

Drawing on our 29 years, we will explore these questions and help you understand and recognize where your lines exist. We will review the misconceptions, share approaches to minimize the risks, help to understand how to recognize violations, and share practices that can help mitigate potential harm to the people involved and the Dynamic.

Drawing on our 29+ years of living in a Dynamic, we will explore how apologies can take place in a Dynamic, the elements of an effective apology, strategies for creating effective communication protocols to support the giving and receiving of an apology, and the function and value of forgiveness, including self-forgiveness, in supporting the Dynamic.

A space for s-types and slaves of color to laugh, talk, and share together.

Many of us have been to classes concerning learning one’s triggers, communicating what is needed in relation to those triggers and of course how to avoid them. This class breaks that mold and teaches you ways to overcome those triggers, empower yourself and take back the needed control that may still be owned by a previous trauma. This class focuses both on the mental aspect of overcoming those triggers as well as utilizing what we do in Kink to help us overcome those triggers.

Power. Surrender. Transformation. Desire. Whether your story is about finding your authority, the moment surrender became freedom, a debauchery-filled scene that was an act of reclamation, or your journey in Leather, Living the Slash Poetry and Story Slam is a space exploring the complexities and depths of M/s and authority dynamics. Come ready to laugh, reminisce, and maybe even blush as we share stories from both sides of the slash that have shaped us. Each slam participant will have a 4-minute time limit, and the winner will receive a free registration to MsC Worldwide 2026 and have their piece published in a literary magazine!

Visit the contact us page at MsCWorldwide.org today, message the Education Liaison to let them know you want to join the slam, and the organizer will get back to you.

• Tips for superior service

• Etiquette and protocol options for continuous service 
• Working towards a common goal

Service, whether to the community or within a dynamic, has been an integral part of the kink community for a very long time. Hopefully, you’ve all had the opportunity to attend at least a couple of classes on Service 101, where the focus is on the service being performed. In this class, we are going to focus on how to effectively develop as a servant (or help your servant to develop). Some of the topics we will touch on will include personal care, how to form healthy habits, effective time and energy management, and how to use etiquette and protocol in a dynamic involving continuous service. We will also talk about how to effectively work toward common goals within the context of a service dynamic.

• Terminology
• Sex work and BDSM origins
• Sex workers’ contributions to our community
• Stigmatization
  • How our practices affect sex workers 
  • What can we learn from sex workers
  • Outreach and allyship

While many individuals seek to separate sex work and BDSM, the history of them are intimately entwined. Rather than allowing the parts of our history that some are uncomfortable with to be erased, we should strive to understand and appreciate how their shared histories have led to where we are today, and how the two are still entwined.  How does sex work contribute to our community? How do the practices of our community impact sex work? Why are both stigmatized, and what can we do about that, both in terms of individual and community work? I look forward to sharing with you my thoughts and experiences on these topics, and hearing your ideas.

If you’re seeking guidance, new friends, or simply want to be part of a supportive community, join us! We’ll engage in a short circle led by Naro & Bastet… Se habla Español!

Part 2: Have you ever noticed a slave/submissive that was once highly active in your local community suddenly vanished, only to find out later that they had experienced sexual assault or a severe consent violation? Why does this happen? The answer to that question is complex. So in part 2, we will begin to tackle this issue by looking at what is known about the link between sexual assault and identity disruption. You will learn to recognize signs that you or someone you love might be experiencing identity disruption and learn ways to reduce the changes of the disruption causing long term negative consequences. Finally, information on how to provide support will be offered for Owners of slaves who have experienced assault and survivors will be given a brief look at ways they can seek support in their healing journey

We’ll dive into the psychology behind switching, the unique dynamics it creates in power exchange relationships, and how to communicate effectively with partners who embody both sides of the slash. From negotiating scenes to managing headspace shifts, this session will help you embrace and articulate your switch identity—or engage more meaningfully with the switches in your life.

Power exchange relationships (especially total power exchange) aren’t all polished protocols and perfect scenes—they’re messy, raw, and deeply human. This class pulls back the curtain on Master/slave (and other relationships) dynamics to explore where fantasy juxtaposes the chaos of reality. From missteps in communication to navigating real life challenges, we’ll dive into the beauty and complexity of “the mess in M/s.” Come ready to explore, learn, and embrace the imperfections that make authority imbalanced relationships truly unique! 

In this class, Sir North, who is diagnosed with ADHD, and slave Akasha, who is diagnosed with autism, will share their personal experiences and insights on navigating neurodiversity within a Master/slave dynamic and within the larger context of what it is that we do. Participants will have the opportunity to explore the intersection of autism and ADHD in the context of power exchange dynamics and relationships, common challenges faced by individuals with these conditions, how neurodiverse folx navigate social contracts inside and outside the community, as well as strategies for effective communication, structure, and support within power exchange relationships. This class aims to foster a greater understanding and acceptance of neurodiversity in the M/s and broader community and provide practical tools for creating more inclusive and supportive dynamics.

In today’s fast-paced and ever-evolving world, many individuals seek a deeper connection to the divine or a sense of spiritual fulfillment. This presentation aims to delve into the intersection of spirituality and power exchange relationships, specifically the Master/slave (M/s) dynamic, as a pathway for personal growth and spiritual exploration.

What do we do when we hit a wall, a blockade or resistance? Owning the fact that blockades and resistance aren’t just submissive issues.

As a submissive who is trying really hard to surrender – and you have a moment or an event where you just don’t want to. How do you get through that wall – what strategies do you employ for yourself?

As a dominant person you are working with someone who has hit a wall and doesn’t want to obey/proceed in the manner you have asked them to. How do you move them through this block – balancing your respect for them, the need to proceed and your own emotional responses to their resistance (both good and bad responses). What strategies do you employ for yourself, for them and for both of you?

This is an open discussion that might be of interest to all people who strive towards successful authority-based relations.

In an open discussion let’s talk about how we assess whether this is your path.  Let’s also touch on how we hone our skills and improve ourselves as Masters on that path to remain true to our goals and our partners.

I encourage those who choose to follow to attend as well. Your insights will be especially useful.  Truly there is no keener reflection of whether something is working than the eyes of a slave who is trying to surrender their will to those who are striving to lead.

This is an open discussion that might be of interest to all people who strive towards successful authority-based relations.
