Learning new skills? (43)

Thats easier said than done if you have a partner. If you haven't you've wasted time , money,and sheer effort in travelling to venues, or in some cases like learning rope or needles a great deal of personal trauma to go to the workshop and try and learn .. for the first one its something you can't do on your own unless you have a mannequin and a mannequin can't tell you your tying the rope too tightly can it !

Defiled is my name full sore Through cruel spite and false report That I may say for evermore Fairwell to joy, adieu comfort For wrongfully ye judge of me Unto my fame a mortal wound Say what ye list, it may not be Ye seek for that shall not be found.. Anne Boleyn ......circa 1503-1536

Why not? What is this aversion that people have to paying to learn stuff from good educators?

I have had Dommes who are inexperienced in certain fields of the lifestyle, 'shadow' me and then practice on a one to one basis on my slave while under my guidance.

Coz they aint payin me thats why !!

and frankly what was it 3 hour's to learn to become a better Dom,,

in 3 hour's a better Dom think about this against

makeing friends contacts attending munches etc visiting clubs workshops are far better investments

Now this i like the idea of,,,

so many Dom/Dommes religiously avoid a bloody thrashing,,, er

i mean aviod being on the wrong end it is a very good learning curb

Please excuse crap spelling cause i,m rubbish

I understand that. No one wants to feel ripped off. But you can learn things from an experienced dominant, and I see no problem with paying to do so. Hell, you might even value a little more that which you have to pay for. Those who charge for services wouldn't last long if clients felt they were being ripped off.

Seconded.

Go to demos/workshops you can learn so much, many of those who give the demos/workshops also work professionally and can give excellent one to one tuition and follow up lesson to the basics you learnt there.

I have been hired by many inexperienced dominants to teach them how to use implements etc and to give them advice and feedback whilst using them and experienced of playing before they venture out into the big wide world of playing in clubs and answering personals.

I've vouched for clients afterwards for club invites and for personal ads to say they are safe sane players.

I also work with pro dom/dommes as a demo bunny for those wanting tuition, it's very enjoyable and satisfying seeing people playing confidently after you've taught them something new.

We were all newbies once.

Yes, but you get a certificate!!

But seriously. Learning from more experienced people at clubs/munches/etc. is great, and in my local area at least I know we have a lot of knowledge and a lot of people who are very generous to newbies with their time.

But at the end of the day, if you want dedicated 1-on-1 tuition for a length of time on something specific, then I think it is worth compensating your tutor in some way.

I have frequently put myself on the receiving end in trhe past in order to learn.

When I want your opinion, I'll thrash it out of you.
Can you taste the grit between your teeth....
