About

Dive into a unique, thought-provoking workshop exploring Sensational & Erotic Waterboarding, led by Swen Brandy (CARNIVORE) and Saara Rei. This session is not just about sensation or intensity but a holistic journey into mindset, ritual design, and safe technical practices.

While this workshop provides a safe and educational environment, it is not suitable for complete beginners to BDSM or edge play. Participants should already have foundational knowledge of consent, communication, and basic BDSM dynamics. This ensures everyone is prepared for the advanced nature of the techniques and the psychological intensity of this type of play.

Workshop Program

Time: 10:30–18:30 (includes a 1-hour lunch break)

Topics Covered:

  • Introduction: History and background of waterboarding.
  • Consent, motivations, and clarifications.
  • Safety, medical precautions, and mindset work.
  • Dramaturgy, non-verbal communication, and “The End is not the End” (handling edge play).
  • Powerplay, technique variations, and combining BDSM skills.
  • Sensation play and manipulation exercises.
  • Demos, mini-sessions, and live practice with guidance.

Who is workshop for?

This workshop is ideal for:

  • Experienced practitioners interested in exploring waterboarding or waterplay in a consensual, controlled environment.
  • Couples with prior experience in sensation play, edge play, or similar practices.

If you’re new to adult play, we recommend attending introductory workshops to build a strong foundation before engaging in advanced play such as this.
