It can be challenging for any new person on the scene. Frank will be exploring what are the best ways to prepare for a munch or party, what considerations you should have, who you should attend with, or how to go it solo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Munches are a great starting point and ongoing community get together where there is no active play present. They are usually held in pubs, with people chatting and making new connections. They facilitate open communication with people who are new, been in the scene for a while, and years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A play party is a big step for someone to attend. This workshop will explore what are the different types of protocols for attending a party for the first time or a new party. Covering what to wear, what to bring, negotiating scenes, respectful voyeurism, whether to drink or be sober, and tips for getting the most out your night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This workshop is a great opportunity for people at any stage in their kink journey to get a perspective on the scene from someone who has been a mentor and player for years.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<p id=\"kinkswingers\"><strong>Kink for Swingers \/ Swinging for Kinksters<\/strong><br><em>presented by Jess (OSS)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"848\" height=\"958\" src=\"http:\/\/sydneykinkfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Jess.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1291\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sydneykinkfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Jess.jpg 848w, https:\/\/sydneykinkfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Jess-266x300.jpg 266w, https:\/\/sydneykinkfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Jess-768x868.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 848px) 100vw, 848px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p>Learn how Swinger finds its way into Kink, or how Kink found its way into Swinging.

This is because of the range of experiences, toys, and methods that are widely available to people and because it can feel great and literally leave a lasting impression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if you are new to receiving or delivering impact play, there are considerations that, if incorporated into your play, can make the experience intimate and bonding as well as fun and consensual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Frank will explore negotiation, toy choices, areas to focus on or avoid, check-ins, warm-ups, varying your swing, cool downs, and holistic aftercare. Frank will also explore companion play, which complements the scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>About Frank \u2013 Hi there, and welcome.
