Dom Guido

Generally, Dom Guido is mostly known for his phrase "gasp for joy", as breathplay is one of his best kinks and activities he demonstrates the most. Aside from that, he's been running the Cigars On The Porch munch/social for 3 years, and has been an avid cigar aficionado for over 7 years. He is always looking to branch out & combine kinky activities to enhance play. He has been in the lifestyle publicly and privately for several years. He comes from a very spiritual background in how he views most things in life, including the dynamics of the lifestyle. In his professional life, hes work daily with high diversity of persons at many different functioning levels, but common to all are basic needs and desires and motivations, each individually expressed and colored by their circumstance. Such is also the case of those whom he has come to know of and become involved with in the lifestyle. He is pleased to be a first-time Dark Odyssey presenter with some new material using simple techniques together. He has regularly done demo work at Studio58 and Charm City Play Space, as well as presented at EPIC in 2015 and 2016. You will find him at various playspaces in the Mid-Atlantic area or munches and at Dark Odyssey camp events, probably cooking up good stuff for his fellow kinky campers.
Favorite Cigar: Kristoff Maduro

Dom Guido's Workshops

Making Your Knifeplay Pop!

So, a lot of people love impact, a lot of people love knifeplay, a lot of people love making kinky things that look pretty. Here's a class that will show a way to do all of that together and make it rock. First we start with a design in mind, that will be carefully scratched onto the back of the demo bottom or your bottom. The object is not to draw blood, but to allow for slight skin breaking to occur in the patter or design you outline. You can draw it on ahead of time or stencil. Next we will dress the back down with an astringent or rubbing alcohol to set the design and scratches made by the knife. Now comes the ouchie part, using impact of hands and or flogging, we will entice blood flow to the knifeplay area to the point of making the knife marks in the design pop out. Added effect, wait about 20-30 minutes and if you've done it well enough, like a self-developing picture, the design should intensify in outline and the pain should increase and remain steady for some time after the scene is complete.

Type of workshop: Lecture, Demo

SiG: Kink & Woo

A discussion session and opportunity to connect the world and energy of kink with the spiritual (woo) world and see how the two interplay with each other in power dynamics, in play, in so many aspects of how we process things and how our involvement in kink can help us to work better with our own spiritual woo. While some of the focus will be discussed from a mostly pagan or non-denominational approach to spirituality, all spiritual walks and kink types welcome to come and join the discussion and information provided. I was very strong in the woo before I ever got into kink, but once I got into kink, the realization that there was a link and bridges between the two aspects of life was undeniable.
