So you’re new to kink and have questions. Everyone does.

• Maybe you’ve always been curious about the kink/BDSM scene but you’d like some support while you explore.
• Maybe you want to talk to people who have an idea of what you’re going through.
• Maybe you are ready to begin, but want to learn more about the different groups, spaces, and protocols found in the Bay Area scene.
• Maybe you just want to meet a few friendly faces before your first kink class or event.

Come to the Newcomer’s Crash Course!

Join us and fellow newcomers on the second Monday of the month. This class is for people who consider themselves new(ish) to the scene. You are free to attend usually up to three times.

We’ll answer questions and share information in an open respectful and casual setting. If you are curious about things like where to go, what to do, how to negotiate and other important beginner topics, this is the class for you.

You do not need to be a Society of Janus Member to attend this event.
