ABOUT
Snack & Chinwag
If you’ve ever wanted to get into kink and you’re not sure where to start or how to do it safely, then this space is for you.
This is an open platform for you to ask questions and have them answered. We’ll cover as many topics as we possibly can and provide a relaxed environment for you to share your experiences.
Although this is primarily aimed at folks who are newer to kink, we encourage peer-to-peer learning and encourage those with special kink interests to attend.
This event is free to attend - the only entrance fee is a curious mind and an optional snack.
HotSqueak has 11+ years of experience in various kinks with a special interest in impact play, but their interests are broad-ranging. They will facilitate conversations and answer any questions you have, as well as share their (mis)adventures.
Share your stories and questions no matter what brand of kink you’re into - from toes to balloons, to spanking, to domination - you name it! No topic is off the cards as long as it’s consensual.
On the day
Events start promptly at 10:00. Please DM us via Instagram if you are running late. Doors open at 09:40 and are closed at 10:10. We will be strict about this because late-coming can be very disruptive to those in the space. Pre-booking is essential. Please have your tickets ready to be scanned on arrival.
We have limited treated rope from Sudo Jute for sale and safety shears. Non-alcoholic drinks (Coke, water, tea, coffee) will also be for sale.
Come dressed however you like - comfy, sexy, sporty, fetish. As long as your booty is covered, you are welcome here.

FAQ
What is Shibari/Kinbaku/Bondage?
The art of binding the body of a consenting adult.
Is rope always sexual?
Rope has many benefits and practitioners outside of the sexual paradigm. For some, it is about pushing their bodies not unlike engaging in strenuous exercise or extreme sports. For some, it is a way to reclaim their agency after trauma. For some, it is a way to experience a connection with others without the scripts and expectations associated with genital contact. As long as what you are doing is consensual and intentional, we consider it healthy and valid.
What should I wear?
This is a friendly learning environment, not a sexual one, so crotches are to remain covered. Other than that, you are free to wear whatever you like. We find that it is easier to tie with minimal clothing or clothing that you can move in easily (leggings, shorts, etc.).
