MIDORI TO HOST STOCKROOM UNIVERSITY CLASS AND WEEKEND INTENSIVE IN SAN FRANCISCO

This March, The Stockroom, Inc., the world’s leading fetish gear and fashion company, will present Midori, renowned best-selling author, lecturer and educator on human sexuality, in two separate events, an open class and a weekend intensive session in San Francisco.

Midori is recognized internationally as the author of Wild Side Sex: The Book of Kink from Daedalus Publishing, and The Seductive Art of Japanese Bondage. Her seminars and workshops both here and abroad are always sold out.

“People are having sex in ways their parents never dream of and they look to me as a guide to sensual adventure,” says Midori.

On Thursday, March 18, Midori will present a class titled “Beyond Twisted: Kink Outside the Box,” at Stockroom, Inc.’s Stormy Leather retail store at 1158 Howard Street, in San Francisco. Doors open at 7 pm and class starts at 7:30.  The class is part of the popular Stockroom University Educational Series.

In the class Midori will explode the standard definitions of kink roles and expand the idea of what kink is all about.  She’ll also map out a more fluid definition of kink. “This is a class for those who don’t quite fit into standard boxes and it’s for anyone who’s curious about their own possibly untapped potential,” says Midori.

Tickets for “Beyond Twisted” are $20 in advance, and can either be purchased in person at the Stormy Leather store or on the Stockroom.com site at http://stockroom.com/-Beyond-Twisted-Kink-Outside-the-Box-with-Midori–P4098.aspx. San Francisco locals are encouraged to take advantage of a special promotion Stormy is offering only to customers in their Howard Street boutique, where customers can get advance tickets for only $15 if they also purchase a Midori product at the same time. Admission will be $25 the day of the class at the door, if space is still available.

Midori’s latest movie Midori’s Expert Guide to Sensual Bondage, directed by Tristan Taormino for Vivid-Ed, will also be available at the Stormy Leather store. It can also be purchased through the “Beyond Twisted” class or at The Stockroom online, at http://www.stockroom.com/Midoris-Expert-Guide-To-Sensual-Bondage-P4048.aspx.

The Stockroom is also slated to sponsor Midori in an extraordinary weekend-long program of instruction and fun, the Forte Femme Sensual Dominance Intensive. Enrollment is limited to 10 women only, and the workshop will run from 7pm Friday, March 19th through 6pm on Sunday, March 21st.

“I’ve been teaching sexuality and erotic arts for over 15 years, but this ‘intensive’ is truly one of the most personal for me,” said Midori.  “We appeal to women who want to be even more confident and fully own their sexuality while sharing joy with their partners.  It doesn’t matter if a woman has a fleeting or deep interest in naughty and unconventional sex as we’ll cover pleasures from mild to wild.  I can promise, however, that each woman who participates will emerge empowered and ready to enjoy loving, healthy and exciting relationships.  Why am I confident in this?  Because over the years, graduates from past intensives and their partners have returned to share the tales of their joys and adventures with me. 

Women from throughout the world are expected to participate in the Forte Femme:  Sensual Dominance Intensive weekend, which will be held at the Hyatt Regency at San Francisco Airport.  It includes a field trip to the Stormy Leather store where the women will get shopping guidance and advice from Midori and enjoy special discounts on quality BDSM gear and fetish clothing like Stormy Leather’s Ophelia Leather Corset, or Stockroom’s handmade Purple Leather Wrist Restraints with black rolled garment leather trim.
