TENS Electrical Play Workshop @ Uber BDSM Bonanza Sun 13th Mar

Hi E/everyone!

I am frequently asked to conduct BDSM workshops for the local Sydney kink community. The last lot I did were for the fantastic event "The Gathering" in October 2010 hosted by local fetish promoters Uber. 

Again, Uber have asked Me to present at their first BDSM Bonanza for 2011. This is being held at their new Camperdown venue which opened only last weekend!

I'll be presenting a workshop on the basics of "TENS/Electrical Play". I've run two previous workshops on this topic, both at a basic and advanced level. They were both very popular workshops and I've had numerous requests to conduct them again!

For those of you who want a taste of a scene you're curious about but don't really feel that knowledgable about, Uber's "BDSM Bonanza" is a great place to start! What happens is 5 different presenters hold 5 simultaneous workshops on their topic with 5 different groups of people. Then, not unlike a circuit class, the groups change and one group of people move on to the next presenter.

This Bonanza we're also having classes on...

• Needle Play
• Caning
• Cling Wrap Mummification
• ...and Hog Ties

It's going to be a fun set of workshops!

The best part is you can stick around for the optional "Stay and Play" to carry on the fun after the workshops are done!

Featured on UK Blog Deep Down & Kinky!

Mistress Tokyo featured on Deep Down & KinkyHi A/all!

Wondering why I haven't blogged for a while here? I've been having lots of trouble uploading images - but, due to a little bit of elbow grease, today it seems to be finally working once more! Hooray! :)

I've made a friend in My travels around the 'net - Kinky Chris runs prominent UK-based blog deepdownandkinky.com! His blog is followed by a proverbial who's who of fetish in the world. When he contacted Me to ask permission to use pictures of Me in My inflatable latex megatits, I was only too happy to oblige!

His blog is a great free source of "hand picked" high quality images posted daily of who's shiny in the fetish world! He features prominent fetish models such as Susan Wayland and Dita Von Teese - as well as work by prominent world class fetish photographers. I was chuffed to be featured and certainly recommend his blog as a go to place for fetish eye-candy!

The photos are of course by Luke from Soul Focus Studio - who else has taken such great shots of Me in My latex?

Check out what the prolific Luke has been up to recently here...

Stay tuned, now My blog is functional again, I'll sure be posting again soon!

Best, in rubber again,

My Latex exhibited by Sydney Leather Pride @ Ms Leather Sydney!

Hi E/everyone!

Guess what? If you go down to the Ms Leather contest tonight at the Oxford Hotel, Taylor Square, you’re “bound” for a big surprise…

I’ve been asked by Sydney Leather Pride to exhibit some of My latex creations thru Gomu Latex.com, My fetish clothing label! A straight jacket, kick bag, clear piss pants and straight jacket sleeves are on exhibit for all to see! If you’ve been in a latex session with Me, or if you caught My very first fashion show at Sydney Rubber Ball in 2008, you may just recognize some pieces!

My favourite photographer Luke Messerer from Soul Focus Studio is also exhibiting too! He has eight canvasses on show, with some of them focusing yours truly too! Any one who has been inside My studio would surely recognize this picture that appeared in Bootlovers.com…

What a great honour to be asked and such fun to exhibit to support Sydney Leather Pride in conjunction with Ms Leather Sydney! I’ll be down at the Oxford to see the best leather lady win!

Til next time – in leather!

I'm off to Melbourne this weekend!

Hi E/everyone!

I'm off to Melbourne this weekend for one of the best annual events on the Australian calendar! The Oz Kink Fest, organized by Mistress Mallice, has grown over the last 5 years to be a fun collection of parties, markets and workshops around the Melbourne Cup weekend!

Check it out here!

Oz Kink Fest 2010

I'm not going down for the major party "Hellfire Resurrection" this year as I’m concentrating My time on the activities the weekend before the keynote event. The things really attracting My attention are the two Kinoko Hajime workshops and the Klub Kunst party on the Monday night!

I’ll land in Melbourne just in time to see a little of the Expo on the Saturday but I’m really looking forward to sampling the unique rope style of Hajime. It's so great to have a rising talent so new to the international Shibari scene in Australia! My rope is very much inspired by traditional Japanese bondage forms but I respect the great value in stepping outside the box and experimenting - and not just with different positions. I’ve seen work of Hajime’s that uses video tape, UV-glow rope and trees (!!) so I’m really looking forward to spending time with an established rope artist who’s style is so different!

Check Kinoko's site here!:

My dates for Melbourne are:

Leaving Sydney Sat 30^th returning late afternoon Tuesday 2^{nd Nov}. I will be available for sessions on Tuesday night.

Naturally, I’m available on My phone as per usual. If you don’t reach Me, send Me a text message and I’ll get back to you at My earliest convenience.

But, if you don’t get Me, know I’m probably having a ball in a rope workshop or at one of the great parties for the Kink Fest!

See you when I get back!

My 1st public Shibari performance - goes off! ;)

Rigging by Mistress Tokyo for Matt Bylett show, Lunamorph 2010

Hi A/all!

Weeks ago the fantastic Matt Bylett from Matt Bylett Designs asked Me to be in his show for the Sydney Fringe Festival's "Lunamorph" at the Enmore Theatre. "Lunamorph" is an annual alternative fetish and gothic fashion show for local Sydney designers - of whom Matt is one.

Check his own latex fetish fashion website here...

Matt Bylett Designs

He asked Me to model his unique latex creations but... to also SUSPEND IN BONDAGE OFF THE STAGE RIGGING A PERSON WEARING ONE OF HIS DESIGNS - an amazing inflatable mermaid costume! Wow!

After thinking about it, I declined the offer to model so I could focus on hanging this amazing mermaid person in the sky! I love suspension bondage - but I know very well the issues of safety and comfort for the submissive - it's paramount!

So, working with the really co-operative riggers at the Enmore Theatre, I was able to suspend My friend Burlesque fetish performer Audrey off the rig really high up - 4m in the air! She was tied in a standing position with arms free but under the mermaid tail were a sequence of ropes at knees and thighs to keep her up and stable...

Rigging by Mistress Tokyo for Matt Bylett show, Lunamorph 2010

I used black 6mm and 7mm hemp for the lines and scarlet 6mm hemp for the body harness. I didn't follow anyone else's pattern; I just made it up after a couple of run throughs, made sure Audrey was comfortable and then just made the whole tie as stable as possible. The most stressful thing was having to tie her legs and the suspension lines behind the stage screen while other performances were going on - in the dark!!! Oh, that and the fact she was so damn high that if anything went wrong it could REALLY go wrong!

Rigging by Mistress Tokyo for Matt Bylett show, Lunamorph 2010I think it looked fantastic! I was really proud as, apart from doing a show with Matt Bylett who is an amazing artist, I did My very first public Shibari performance! I do this sort of tying nearly every day in My sessions but it's different to have to produce an aesthetic and safe tie on demand under really trying circumstances.

There are also painfully few FEMALE Shibari riggers performing around the world. In fact, I can only think of one woman doing this style of show on a regular basis and that is the fantastic Satomi Tokyo Love Doll, from whom I've learnt A LOT of My rope skills. さとみさん、どうもありがとうございました！:)

Suspended... 4m in the air? WOW!

Be shiny and, if you can't be shiny - be ropey!
