The
Las Vegas Mentors is designed for those who are serious about their
personal growth and are willing to dedicate a substantial amount of
time to their personal development.
The
ongoing Las Vegas Mentors program is a year long intensive study under
the supervision of senior community members. This program is predicated
on the idea that the dominant personality is ever leaning.
We view this program as foundation classes designed to deliver safety
knowledge, an understanding of our complex communities and play skills.
Our
focus is to provide you the opportunity to learn the different aspects
of our varied culture and develop both safety knowledge and BDSM skills.
The
program adopts a three tier approach to training.
Tier
1: - Boot Camp
Tier
2: - One on One Training with a Mentor
Tier
3: - Wrap Up Sessions - Where to go After Training
The
program is very comprehensive and requires a time commitment on the
part of the participants.
BOOT
CAMP
BOOT
CAMP is a three month training module designed to provide a solid overview
and foundation in the BDSM lifestyle. It is a prerequisite program.
Apprentices must pass through this phase before moving on to the core
program.
Three
Boot Camp Mentors work as a team to guide participants through a regimented
study program. The Boot Camp provides a foundation into the mental dominance,
D/s relationship building and sexuality and heath within our lifestyle.
Also
included in Boot Camp is the Certified
Dungeon Monitor Training.
All apprentices must pass the Certified
Dungeon Monitor certification process. This two day training program
trains DM's to monitor and work the floor of major events. Content includes
non-crisis intervention, using the WIS system for monitoring play, BDSM
First Aid and the complete American Heart Association CPR training.
Particpants receive CPR certification.
Boot
camp prepares participants to move on into the Austin Mentor's core
program.
CORE Program:
The
Core Program is a nine month training program. Each month an apprentice
is paired with a senior Mentor who trains the apprentice for the month.
At the month's end, the apprentice rotates to a new mentor.
The
Mentors were carefully chosen for their unique lifestyle and proven
abilities. The idea is to provide a broad introduction to the different
evolving cultures within the BDSM world.
Each
mentor has agreed to share their particular perspective of the lifestyle
they live, teach a skill (such as bondage, fire play, etc.) and the
specific safety issues and techniques that concern that skill. In addition,
each Mentor has agreed to teach their personal passion to the apprentice.
Also
included in the Core program is a submisives study modual. All apprentices
must participate in the subs-Panel discussion group. This day long program
introduces submissives who work with dominants who to understand the
submissives perspective and issues.
WRAP
UP
The
nine month "one-on-one" training concludes with a session
by a set of Mentors who address intermediate and advanced topics. Topics
include: BDSM Ethics and Leadership in the BDSM community.
