April travel plans for Japan unsure... Stay tuned!

Hi A/all!

I love traveling and I have another big trip organized overseas yet again - but this time I'm not sure about whether all will go to plan…

On the 5th of April, I have flights booked and hotels waiting for Me in Japan. Understandably, I'm rather uncertain as to whether I'll be going…

Coverage of Japan in Crisis

(To see up to date coverage of the Japan issue as it develops, I find SBS an excellent source. I just viewed new videos of the tsunami on their site. Click on the picture above to go thru to their website.)

When the 8.9 magnitude earthquake hit an area off the cost of Sendai on March 11th, I was beside Myself with concern for the people in the affected areas. Watching the footage of the resulting Tsunami blow through and decimate whole towns only confirmed the gravity of the destruction. My heart has been stricken since and each news report I read had brought Me close to tears.

It's not just in name that I am allied with Japan. The place is like a second heartland to Me. I majored in Japanese language and have been speaking it for over 20 years. I've practised Japanese martial arts, recited Haikus, worn Kimono, learned how to play Koto and traveled to many areas of the country - forgetting My love of Shibari and Hojojutsu. I have many friends there and not just in the kink community. The aspects that resound strongest with Me are Japan's belief structures - Shinto and Buddhism have had a very strong influence on My own spirituality.

Aikido way of Harmony

About 5 months ago My dojo decided we'd plan the trip of a lifetime to train in our chosen art - Aikido, the way of harmony. We were going to follow in the footsteps of the great O-sensei, Morihei Ueshiba, who is credited with designing this modern art originally inspired by Jyujitsu. The recent developments in Japan have cast doubts on taking our trip next month with many concerned that playing tourist right now is not respectful or appropriate, regardless of how much we were looking forward to going…

I welcome all who serve Me, whether near or far, to do as I am going to do and donate money to the relief efforts in Japan. I'd personally like to help out on the ground but I have few skills to offer other than a Senior First Aid certificate and lots of chutzpah! So I'm going to do what I can and donate cash!

Link to agencies to donate to Japan relief effort

Above is a SBS link to a variety of agencies that have roles in the relief effort. I've been wonderfully busy recently and have donated some of My hard earned spoils. I encourage My slaves to do the same.

The crux of My posting today is that I have plans to fly to Japan for three weeks in April. My current itiniery is to be in Japan from Tuesday 5th to Monday 25th inclusive. A decision will be made in the next week as to whether our group will go or not. I suggest that those who wish an audience with Me in April watch this blog to keep up to date with My movements as they develop. I will know for certain what is happening by the end of next week, 25th March.

Stay tuned and please hold the plight of the Japanese people in your thoughts.

Peace,

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!

New profile on Facebook... TBC!

Hey again!

If you follow Me on Twitter you'd probably be aware of the clusterf*ck I've been suffering with Facebook recently!

Mistress Tokyo is back on Facebook

I swear it was just because I signed in from a different IP, but My Mistress Tokyo Fan Page has been suspended along with My old admin account! I received no warnings and I certainly posted no inappropriate content such as lewd pictures, links or video. Hmmmmm. :(

I waited for 2 weeks to be reinstated but to no avail! Frustratingly, I received no support as to why I got shut down either so I've concluded I'll never know. Regrettably, I've now set up a new account and will be building a new Fan Page soon, too.

If you visit My Fan Page in the near future and it looks basic and different from before, with no photos - and you are not a friend when you were sure you were - wait around because I'm in the process of building it all back up again!

Best, where there be internet!

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,

I'm back in Sydney & back at what I love best!

Hi A/all!

If you hadn't noticed - I'm back in Sydney and back doing what I love! 

I am available for sessions once more - and will be for the next couple of months at least! :)

I had a great time off! Those who know Me well enough know I love to get away from it all completely over the Xmas and New Year period. I do so every year! I turn off My phone, don't attend My inbox and simply lock the doors!

But… naturally I still keep ticking over! In the time I was away I traveled to both rural NSW downstream from the QLD flooding and to My old home town of Perth, WA. I presented two BDSM workshops and did some relief First Aid volunteer work during that time. So I got My fix of SM and Iodine!

While I was in Perth I made it My business to meet up with the fantastic Wayne Henry for two - count em' - two photo shoots! Here is one of the shots that has been released on Facebook - what do you think? ;)

Here is Wayne's site - I interviewed him in the December 2010 edition of The Fetishistas.com but here's a link to his site proper!

Warped Photography site

No, I haven't got the rest of the pictures yet - but soon there will be two more galleries in My site and My followers on Twitter, Facebook and MTLive.com will be the first to know when I release them! There might even be some more pictures of My most recent boot acquisitions! ;)

Speaking of Bootlovers.com… I am in the latest edition - the bumper issue #70! I didn't get to blog about it before I went on holidays but I am sporting one of My very best pairs of ballet boots - My custom crotch high ballets, the last LSB ever made! I was lucky enough to be shot by three (!!) different photographers for this edition, Soul Focus Studio, DJ from Bootlovers and Warped Photography!

Here are a couple of sneaky teasers for you… I haven't released these anywhere yet! I'm seen here in My own latex clothing by Gomu Latex too, one of My most recent designs!
