About The
SM Seminars

The Safer SM Education project came about from a chance meeting of friends in a local Toronto leather bar. The four friends (collectively known as the FourSM), recognised the need in Toronto for information about safe practices for SM. At the time there were scant few resources or publications available to people who wanted to learn how to be safe. The FourSM put together the draft outline of their introduction to SM and presented it to . The rest is history....

To date, some 2,000 people have attended the seminars, both at the 101 level and, for the more advanced, the 201 seminars.

The seminars require the talents of many more volunteers than the initial FourSM. These are people who aim to encourage and educate people in safe and lawful practices of SM. The seminars are pan-sexual in nature, and the volunteers are male, female, heterosexual, homosexual, and various combinations and permutations of the above ;-)

The seminars are a chance for you to have your questions about SM answered. They are also a chance for you to meet new people and to explore SM activities in a safe, friendly atmosphere.

Our seminars are held from 12:00 to 18:00 to allow you to have an early brunch and be out in time to get to dinner. Please arrive between 11:30 and 12:00, since the afternoon is packed with information and we need to start on time.

Since space is limited, please reserve your seat in advance with the Safer Sex Education Project. There is no dress code for the seminars. Anyone interested in learning about SM is welcome.

Coffee, tea, & juices are provided during breaks in the seminar.

The space is wheelchair accessible.

The 201 level seminars usually include workshops for both Tops and Bottoms to discuss and improve their technique.
