An experiential introduction to subjugation games led by Frank T. Khani and Sheila Crux

Subjugation scenarios are among the most widespread and elementary erotic fantasies. Yet only a few of us act on them and create real-life scenarios where our partner’s playful resistance is overcome in a sensual manner.
Frank T. Khani and Sheila Crux are leading this 2-day introductory workshop to kinky martial arts practices that offer a different way of exploring dominance and submission games with your partner.

When we’re not busy working and playing in the Dungeon, all of us here at The Serpent Rooms, enjoy going out and meeting other like minded Kinksters on the London Fetish Scene.

London fetish social event’s such as Munches, are a great way to introduce you to the scene and fetish community, meet like mined people, make new friends and explore new relationship and interactions.

Here are a few great fetish social event’s we think are well worth going too;, London Fetish Munches and Gatherings.

The Putney Munch

If you live in South or South West London there is a great regular Munch meet up on the first Thursday of every month at the Bricklayers Arms in Putney.

The Munch is held at a regular pub, and is very much a casual, non play, social event to meet like minded friends. As the Munch does not have exclusive use of the bar, the organisers ask that you dress appropriately, and leave the latex and fetish gear at home for the night!

Those who attend the Putney Munch are a very welcoming group and this is definitely a great event to attend.

The Docklands Munch

The Docklands Munch is held every second Monday of the month at The Ledger Building, West India Quay in South East London.

The Docklands Munch has been running for over 9 years, and is a regular meeting place for Kinksters based around South East London and other parts of London too!

The Docklands Munch is non play, informal event to bring the fetish community together. The group meet in a pub and have a booked room, where the Munch is held.

After running for 9 years, the Docklands Munch has built up a great community of friends and is a wonderful way to meet others, ask questions and get information about the fetish scene in London.

Fetish Week – London

Fetish week London, is the biggest Gay Fetish Week in the UK. Running from the 8th to the 14th of July, a whole host of different events are hosted in Venues in central London.

Fetish Week event’s include social pub meet ups, workshops and club events. This week is a great introduction to the London Gay Fetish scene and there is definitely plenty of fun and opportunities for play.

The Camden Crunch

The Camden Crunch meet on the third Friday of every Month at Lock17

The CRUNCH’s raison d’etre is to be a flippin good night out. It is completely not for profit, and exists for the good of the kink/fetish/alternative community. In 2010 the CRUNCH founders had an idea for event that was basically what they wanted from a good Friday night out.

The Camden Crunch, is not a Fetish Club, or a Munch, but something a little bit in between. Hence the name “Crunch”. It is both a social experience and a party.
