“[Dagger’s] class was genuinely the highlight of [the weekend] for me. I left absolutely ELECTRIFIED and couldn’t wait to discuss the takeaways with my husband on the drive home… Dagger is obviously both extremely knowledgeable and passionate.”

Pop-Up Classes
September 11: Fingering for Pussies (& Other Holes, Too)
LIVE at Less Dead Studio, Poughkeepsie, NY. A comprehensive class on getting handsy with holes, for tops and bottoms of all genders. You’ll learn internal and external anatomy, expert communication for tops and bottoms, comfort and pain relief tricks for folks with tight holes or stiff wrists, and, most importantly, what to do with your hands! Even experienced attendees often say they’ve never taken a class like this before. Register here.
Monthly Class Series
July–August: Kinky History
VIRTUAL: Sundays at 7–9pm ET / 4–6pm PT. Can’t make class time? Students who register in advance get access to class recordings.
We survived Pride! And we’ve survived a lot more. This series explores the history behind our communities and sub-subcultures, delving into disputes, traditions, big events, and social trends that shaped the way we live and play today. We’ll begin with an overview of kink, BDSM, and related practices that often exist alongside each other but don’t always overlap, including essential (and often conflicting!) attitudes about how we navigate consent, safety, community, and relationships. Then we’ll dive into major topics in our communities’ intersecting histories, from Leather contests and pageants to safer-sex activists, Master/slave traditions, and burly bears on bikes. The lineup includes:
July 12: What Are We Even Doing? All About Kink & BDSM — with Dagger
July 19: Servant, Leader, or Figurehead? Leather Title History — with Akasha Eden
July 26: The Great Schism: How Leather & M/s Lost Each Other — with Akasha Eden
Aug 2: How to Have Sex in an Epidemic: BDSM, AIDS, & Inventing Safer Sex — with Dane Stewart

What to Expect:
All virtual classes are live on Zoom. You’ll receive everything you need via email as soon as you register. Most are two hours long, including time for Q&A.
Can’t make the class time? As long as you register by class time (or for a series, as long as you register by the final class), you’ll get access to the recording. Recordings will be available to watch until the next series of classes begins. After that, the only way to access them will be via the recorded class library on Patreon. (Classes get added there two months after the original series.) For more information on recordings, check the FAQ.
Get Licked! is for everyone: queer, straight, trans, cis, binary, non, monogamous, polyamorous, kinky, vanilla, and all other folks are welcome. Be kind to each other and help each other learn. We are here in community.
Many classes include activities to help you grasp material and build skills. Participation is encouraged, but never required. Listen to your body, and do what feels good for you.
