Activities designed to show a slave to serve a Master.
Although there are a plethora of techniques widely available on any search engine, there are many factors to consider while training, the least of which is the terms of any contracts negotiated between a Master and slave.
Overall, the most effective training situation will exist when the Master has gained an understanding of the needs and desires of their slave and has also a keen acceptance of what s/he needs as a person. A careful mix of these two things, and not just a situation brought about by pure happenstance, will bring about a more fulfilling training experience for both parties involved.
One note of warning regarding training: many subs offer
their 'training' as a reason for being an 'above average' or a
more 'rounded and experienced' sub. This training can also be
detremental to a new Master as the training applied by one may be
inappropriate for another, and that 'well trained sub' may have to
be 'totally retrained' to the new Doms ways...See also
