SAN FRANCISCO — Kink.com announced today the premiere event of its newly developed Workshop Series.

Inspired by the company’s mission of “empowering people to explore their sexuality,” Kink is now offering Bay Area locals and visitors the opportunity to attend workshops that will aid in providing the information and encouragement to support their exploration.

“We’re extremely pleased to be able to serve as a resource for education as well as entertainment,” said Kink.com founder Peter Acworth. “There are a wealth of resources in this city, and our goal is to open this up to the wider community and increase the size and scope of the kinky community.”

Each month will feature a new topic and will cater to a wide variety of experience levels.

The workshops are set to begin this month with Strap-On Play 101, as taught by popular Kink.com model and seasoned sex educator, Rain DeGrey.

“I got into teaching sexuality workshops as a natural extension of being a sexual, kinky person. I have always been very passionate about information and education,” Rain said.

She added, “I want people to take away a sense of ‘Aha, I can do that.’ If one person has the courage to try something new, their sex life improves and they are a happier person as a result, then teaching was worthwhile.”

The first workshop is scheduled for July 13 at 7:30 p.m.

Reservations can be made online at Tickets.ArmoryStudios.com.
