Bottom 101

Receiving fully and completely is its own act of courage.

This course explores what it means to be a bottom: the skills, the mindset, and the particular courage that active receiving requires. You will learn how bottoming differs from submission, what experienced bottoms actually practice, and how to build the communication tools that make every scene better. By the final lesson, you will have a clear picture of what a fulfilling bottoming practice looks like over time.
