Scott Smith

Scott Smith began exploring the facets of S&M at an early age. With his creative and rather deviant mind, he enthusiastically developed his techniques of bondage and suspension from his experience with nautical and high angle rope work. His powerful physical interactions of his activities were initially necessities for various activities including white water rafting, scuba, climbing, and paramedical rescue. Scott brings a distinct intensity and passion to the ebb and flow of learning, teaching and actualizing S&M. A believer that the magic of BDSM comes through the connection of the participants, his workshops develop and nurture that connection; while maintaining a decidedly sadistic edginess. Scott has presented countless workshops and seminars throughout North America and abroad for organizations large and small. Scott is internationally known for his rope work, connection, and edge play workshops. Feel free to contact Scott through FetLife at Scott_Smith, or his email [email protected].

Homecoming 2026 Classes

CBT: Cock & Ball Torture (3)
CBT is about having a man’s balls in your hands, feeling the warmth, feeling the pulse, knowing you have their undivided attention, and controlling how they breathe with the firmness of your grasp. In this workshop, we’ll take you through the step-by-step process of asking for the control with the first touch, accepting the control with the second, and the dance of involuntary twitches that follow. The facial expressions, the changes in breathing, and all the subtlety that comes together to tell the story of intimacy between the person strapped into the chair and the one smiling nearby. We’ll cover hands-on techniques and simple implements that allow you to explore CBT, whether you are grabbing on for the first time, or have a handful of experience.

Easy suspensions (2)
Suspensions bring a whole new level to Shibari. Even more than standing or floor work, the rigger controls the aesthetic, the rigger decides what the bottom can or cannot leverage against, and the rigger controls the ‘wobble factor’ – that wonderful balance between “I feel like I’m falling over” and “I’m safe in a hammock”. This hands-on workshop is a confidence builder and skill expander. Whether you have done a myriad of suspensions or none, you will take something away from this workshop. The primary focus of the workshop will be having fun, enjoying the company of people who sleep next to their rope – just ’cause – and along the way exploring suspension logistics and rigging which is safe, predictable, repeatable, and usable on a wide range of body types. 

Breath Control (3) 
Taking their breath away while avoiding the flat line: a realistic look at methods, risks, and safety for novice to seasoned experts. The goals of this workshop are to provide a real-world examination of breath control through the eyes of a former paramedic and lifetime edge-player. We’ll discuss the two broad categories of ‘breath control’ and delve into each with technique examples, safety, physiology, risk assessment, and more. The end result: allowing you and your partners to make the best decisions possible for yourselves.

Branding Basics: Heat, Strike, Heal (3)
Fire, metal, and a steady hand: everything you need to understand before the first strike. This introductory level branding workshop is open to everyone and covers the essential elements of strike branding. We’ll look at the safety and medical considerations first, including negotiation and consent, skin preparation, recognizing when a burn requires medical evaluation, and caring for a fresh brand. Next comes design and setup: appropriate and inappropriate areas for branding, design considerations, design transfer, the heat source, branding tools, positioning the person being branded, and maintaining open communication throughout. Finally, we’ll examine the procedure itself, including heating the metal, striking, and evaluating the results.
