Many folks who educate adults on kink, relationships, and sexuality figure out how in the process of doing it. As the saying goes, experience is the best teacher—but the tuition is very high! Creating Captivating Classes distills the authors’ extensive experience as presenters and organizers specifically within this space, combined with a focused review of relevant literature on the theory, method, and practice of teaching. Topics run from memorable content organization to bottom-led education to sex-demo-specific tips, and diverse expert perspectives have been incorporated throughout both the chapters and extensive interviews. Whether you’re an experienced instructor or an aspiring newcomer, this guide will give you the tools and perspectives to facilitate the lifelong process of honing your craft as a speaker and presenter.Authors/ Shay & Stefanos Lee Alexandria Nichandros, BallerinaGoddess, Carter Brûlée, Darren "Infinity" Campbell, Davey Faye, Emrys, Jack Thompson, Ken Melvoin-Berg, Kevin Patterson, Midori, Nil, Princess Kali, Sunny Megatron, The v. 1 KECC Collective, Thista Minai, and WhiskyTangoFoxy
Loved the advice and examples in this book. Will definitely be using the ideas and tips in here for both my vanilla and kink classes. I loved that a lot of the ideas were backed with science and the sources cited. Having taken quite a few of Shay's classes, it was especially impactful to recognize these ideas in action. Highly recommend!
A great resource for people building kink/sexuality/relationship classes. Lots of practical advice and considerations when presenting on these topics specifically, as well as when creating presentations in general, that come from many experienced presenters.
