JLUBEJACK

A covered Master, polyamorous bisexual heading the Leather Heart Clan family with Master Malicia, Knotty Janee, slave robin, maya and pledge JJ. I have been in the leather/BDSM scene for 22 years.

I am a Founding Member and Past President of two Leather clubs, and an associate member of 11 others. I've been a judge for leather contests and am a voracious reader of all books related to BDSM, Leather, and sex/mores-related politics and history. I am currently NLA-I rep for NLA-D and Chair of the NLA-Dallas P&P review committee.

An enthusiastic and lively presenter who sprays presentations with a huge dollops of humor, I've given more than 120 seminars on a wide variety of scene topics & kinks as a way of paying back my mentors. I've presented to local clubs and nationally, from Florida to California and am very honored to present at GWWN!

MASTER MALICIA BIO

I'm the domme of the House of Malicia, junior Master and Captain of the Leather Heart Clan; JLubeJack is our senior Master, shaping our exploration of Leather.

I'm in a wide-open poly relationship. I am a voracious bisexual and have many, many sex partners I'm learning from and exploring with, male, female, and other... but there are n-e-v-e-r enough let me know if you're interested!

Like JLubeJack, I love to teach, and would love it even more if hearing were not an impediment. And we all love to write, though JLubeJack is by far the more colorful scrivener.

And speaking of learning I plan to continue meeting new challenges and learning new things. Forever. Or until I die, whichever comes first...
Please check their web page for more information on this wonderful, enlightening, exciting and fun family!

SEX IN THE DUNGEON; BRINGING THE HOT SAUCE BACK!

Back when black rooms teemed with gay men, the dungeon screamed with sex, it smelled of sweaty hot bodies, and the power was unmistakable! These days, even simple eroticism is rare in our dungeon play spaces. What the Fuck? No, 'Where's the Fuck?' This seminar & discussion aims to list the all the excuses for the timid, then will help banish them to the trash bin. We'll look at an endless variety of techniques for adding sensuous magic ' and fucking ' to scenes. The yin/yang of pain and intimate pleasure will cook up to-die-for scenes they will not soon forget! This is a hands-on tour with demos and class participation for hets as well as GLBTs...

MASSIVE EDGE PLAY

How do you put the shock & awe of their very first scene back into the jaded hearts of long-time subs? You smash them with massive edge play - a scene with multiple Tops all doing edge techniques simultaneously, No batter how many scenes they've been through, no matter how hard they've become, these techniques will put that sub into massive sensory overload! Because they don't know what's coming next from which Top, there is no way for them to yawn THESE scenes away!

BDSM influences his artistic expression, which has occurred in the form of fetish photography, DJing music for scene events, dance, writings, and kinky stand-up comedy.

How to Provide Excellent Service

This class was originally created for Dallas Submissive Mentor's Program. It discusses Sea-brand service, which includes layers of the following types of service: anticipatory, elegant, sacred, and creative service. Using an example opportunity for service we interactively discuss what can be done to achieve these elements of excellent service within that scenario. Depending on time and space, we will either have a demo or discuss additional example service scenarios.

Master Neko:


I have been in the lifestyle for seventeen years. My travels and learning in the lifestyle began as a collared slave. After almost 2 years, my Mistress felt I was on the wrong end of the flogger and spent 3 years training me to provide the proper care and feeding for my own slaves in the future, as well as building upon the Leather history, traditions, and ideals of my previous training.


Through my training, I discovered a desire to educate others about our lifestyle - helping people to understand and find personal acceptance of the deep, dark parts of us that we keep locked away. To that end, I have given presentations on such topics as (in no particular order and not limited to) fear play, mind fucks, interrogation, sword/knife play, orgasm control, rough body, blood play, bod mechanics, medical play, stapling, electricity, sensory deprivation, liquid latex, needles, mummification, humiliation, rope 101, predicament bondage, and shibari. I enjoy dishing out a variety of sadism when I play as well as being an active part of the community.


Prior to Texas, I was a part of the New York scene where I presented, played, and did fetish and rave photography. In 2008, I led the local bondage SIG group: DFWBound2. I have been a Mentor in the Dallas Mentors Program and ran the Bound Rose Society for four years with my slave, koneko. Currently, I volunteer in the Dallas community at the dungeon Sanctuary and at Beyond Vanilla. I have presented in places such as New York, Dallas, Austin, Colorado, and Temple. I have had as many as four slaves at one time, (which makes me certifiably insane) though currently, I own one slave, koneko, who has been with me since 2002 in a 24/7 relationship.


koneko has been in service since 1991 with the last ten being blessed in service to Master Neko. She is a bi, poly, Leather girl, slave who loves kink education. koneko is also Wiccan, first initiated twenty years ago and a teaching elder since 1999. During her Leather path, she has been given opportunities to serve the community through a number of venues, such as volunteering at the Dallas dungeon Sanctuary, Bound Rose Society, NLA-Dallas, Beyond Vanilla, Darker Paths, Fourth Friday, and in the Dallas and National submissive Mentor Programs. She has also been gifted with opportunities to teach as well as co-teach with Master Neko at several kink groups and events in Dallas, Austin, Colorado, and Temple. koneko loves dancing under the moon, bottoming to her Master's wild scenes, serving privately and publicly, having a full life, and enjoying the journey she is on.

Mindfucks & You - Is this Taboo?

Blade Magic: Dance of Flesh, Spirit and Steel (SM Track)


The glint of the blade, the cold steel against bare flesh, the light scratch of a sharp point on those sensitive and vulnerable places, all have enormous power to transport both giver and receiver to new heights of shared experience. Non-cutting, sensual knife play goes beyond the mere physical: it can be scary or sexy, anxiety building or tension relieving, frightening or soothing. It can be all those things and much more, but above all, there's little else that can reach as deep into our souls and speak to us at so many physical and emotional levels as can the awesome power of the blade.


BLADE MAGIC is non-cutting knife play. The squirming starts when the knives come out! Are YOU ready? . We shall cover the finer "points" of knife play from the basics of choosing your knife; maintenance; safety issues; mechanics; setting the scene; knife play and DM's; accidents and emergencies TO the spiritual, erotic aspect of knife play; the power of steel; trust, fear and mind fuck; facing the Inner Beast in knife play and how to combine knife play with other kinks, just to name a few.


Blood Ritual/Cutting (SM Track) -


Blood letting rituals have been a part of the human experience since the beginning. The sacred and vital substance of blood has been used in purification rituals, to show a sign of obedience, offer the gift of surrender, empower sacred objects, and seal the precious bond between lovers, family and friends in various cultures. The focus of this class is on the powerful and sensual properties of blood and spiritual and ritual cutting. We will discuss its allure and magnetism as well as the emotional and spiritual impact it has in a S&M session. The eroticism of the act of cutting is a very potent aphrodisiac and has a powerful affect on the psyche of those involved in blood play. We will discuss necessary safety precautions and the appropriate equipment to use during blood rituals/play as well as offer suggestions on how to create an atmosphere conducive to such a session.


We shall also share our views and experiences about the power this kind of energy exchange which is at the apex of body, mind and soul. Please be advised that this is an advanced class recommended for people who understand the idea of safe, sane, and consensual or risk aware consensual kink; for those who desire and love playing on the edge.


Hidden Prejudices Against Extreme SM Scenes - Acceptance and Tolerance


It takes no effort to enjoy the activities we feel comfortable with, be they vanilla or kinky. That is the path of least resistance. We, BDSM and/or Leather folks who are on the fringes of society, who are rebels by nature, who chart their own journeys, must not take this path of least resistance. Many of us preach and make statements of tolerating and accepting of other people's kink, but the real test is when we actually come face to face to witness those acts which lie outside of our zone of comfort. It is important to step outside of one's own zone of comfort not only to test our resolve but also showing support to those who engage in them. After all, we are all linked by this desire to express ourselves with the acceptance of our tribe.


There are hidden or subconscious prejudices against some of the SM plays by many of us. They are steeped in ignorance, lack of understanding, pre conceived notions, arbitrary thinking or just being judgmental. Playing with blood could be one of those activities. Incorporating guns in our scenes by some could be another. Extra (subjective) harsh beating or kicking or choking or degrading or humiliating or whipping could raise eye brows of many without that person's realization. Playing with religious, cultural, racial or ethnic symbols could also be one of those.
