Are you self taught?
Yep, do what feels good, and don’t be afraid to say if it doesn’t.

My school friend and still my best friend taught me as she is a professional dominatrix and she taught me the whole process on how to tease and then whip - it’s a craft as you need to do it right

My other half taught me. I have no idea where she learnt it from or even got her ideas. Not going to ask either in case I don’t like the answer 
My wife is the whipper and I’m the whipee. We’ve only recently started impact play and basically we’re making it up as we go along but she’s improving constantly and rapidly.
Its fun for both of us as we learn together.

Were self taught here. Im the sub but love playing with the floggers. We went to a workshop last weekend and now im learning to florentine. Nearly got the 4 point down and then onto 6 and 8 with a view to possibly performing at events with fibre optic and other pretty light up floggers. Thats the dream anyway. May not happen as i tend to start to hyperfocus on something and then get bored

@Kh1985 I wouldn’t mind going to a class like that always fun to learn new techniques and get the skills tightened up.

I just sit scouring fetlife for events and workshops in my area and find the ones that suit us best.
Haha I’m not imagining if there’s classes out there on how to flog and whip 
@batjamboree Lucky you. Being taught by a professional dominatrix.
I bet it is great kniwing how to tease and then whip to a professional standard?
@Outdoorseyguy - it took time to learn but I admit I’m very good at it ….

OK, dont take this the wrong way but…it took about a minute to figure it out. Calibrating what worked for Mrs. Kat took two sessions of feedback and the second session was only needed because of getting a MUCH bigger flogger.
50/50 self taught/attending clubs.
Watched, listened, learned, practiced. Now I teach what I was taught
100% self taught-ish, I used to watch a lot of dominatrix porn so I suppose I learnt from that. I’m quite brutal though because of this, I really should apologise to my old poor sub

A good friend of mine is a model and a switch domme; mainly a domme but she guided the way for me. After we had done a photo shoot tying session with her bound and gagged she suggested she restrain me and put me on a padded cross.
I was nervous but at same time hard and aroused. I know she could be quite fierce so I was a little nervous but it was so exciting to feel the sensation of what it felt to give up control.
She was amazing though. I had never had anything used on me before but I trusted her 100%. She knew I wasn’t into fierce bdsm so she incorporated lots of teasing, vocal talk and teased me all over with a flogger, cat claws and a crop.
We had a few sessions and it help influence how I bdsm played in future years and what implements I bought. I love to dom, task, take control, occasionally switch too. But her sessions taught me a lot. I have used crops and floggers, occasionally spanked too. But all in the context she taught me. Firm but not harsh, have the receiver enjoy too; reward after also
