HMU Academy: Predicament Play

This Hit Me Up event is open to the public, 21+.

About the Class

Predicament Play traps you in choice, not cuffs.

This class explores how to create deliciously cruel scenarios where every option has a cost, relief makes things worse, and the body and mind enforce the rules.

Learn how to weaponize time, endurance, arousal, and decision-making to build intense scenes—without bondage—where freedom itself becomes the trap.
