Classes & Education
The class lineup below reflects the kinds of programming The Wet Spot ran during its
final years (and which carried forward into CSPC). For current class schedules and
registration please visit thecspc.org.
Education was the heart of The Wet Spot. From the very first year a steady cadence of weeknight classes covered everything from the bones of negotiation and consent to deep technical skill in rope, impact, electrical play, sensation, and power exchange. Classes were taught by community presenters and visiting educators and were open to members and, for many sessions, the wider public.
Foundational
- Newcomer Night Orientation to the space, house rules, and how to ask for what you want.
- Negotiation 101 Naming desires, hard limits, soft limits, and aftercare expectations.
- Consent in Practice Beyond the checklist - reading bodies and shifting plans mid-scene.
- Safer Sex Toolkit Barriers, harm reduction, and toy hygiene.
Rope & Bondage
- Rope Foundations Single column, double column, and the friction hitches everything else builds on.
- Floor Ties Decorative and functional ties for play that keeps the bottom on the ground.
- Intro to Suspension Anatomy, hardware, partial suspension, and risk awareness.
- Peer Rope Salon Open practice format, supervised by experienced rope tops.
Impact & Sensation

- Floggers & Paddles Form, accuracy, and selecting the right tool for the scene.
