You’ve gathered the courage and booked a session. Good. But before you stand at my door, there are things you should consider. Proper preparation doesn’t just show respect, it makes the session deeper, more intense and unforgettable for both of us.
Here’s how to prepare for a BDSM session as a slave or sub: physically, mentally and logistically.
1. Personal Hygiene
This should go without saying, but it doesn’t always. So let me be clear:
- Shower thoroughly, immediately before the session, not just in the morning. Worst case scenario, we also have a bathroom with shower is available for you Fetisch Institut Berlin to freshen up on site.
- Intimate areas freshly shaved. This is not a request, it’s a requirement.
- Brush your teeth, use deodorant. Bad breath and body odour are mood killers.
- Trim your fingernails, for your safety and mine.
- Avoid heavy meals beforehand. A light stomach is more comfortable during intense play. Especially having an anal play, you must stick to a specific diet already a day before a session. Inform yourself about food you can eat and not.
“Respect doesn’t start at the door. It shows in your preparation.”
2. Communication Beforehand
Before we meet, we will have already discussed your preferences, taboos and desires. But many subs hold back during pre-session communication, out of shame or insecurity.
Don’t do that.
- State your hard limits honestly. These are things that must never happen.
- Share your soft limits. Things that intrigue you but make you uncertain.
- Tell me about fantasies that have been on your mind.
- Mention any health conditions: asthma, heart problems, joint issues, medications or even metal parts in your body.
- If you’re a beginner, say so. I am beginner-friendly and will gladly help you explore your kinks.
The quality of our session depends entirely on the quality of your communication beforehand.
Important: Respect my time and availability. I am very busy and i reply when I have time, not on demand. Constant messaging, impatience, or repeatedly following up before I’ve had a chance to respond is an absolute no-go and will make me reconsider continuing to meet you.
3. Logistics
Don’t underestimate the practical side. Small organisational mistakes can kill the mood before it even begins.
- Transfer the deposit on time. The amount will be determined by me in advance.
- Arrive on time. Not too early, not too late. If you’re running late, inform me immediately.
- Bring the tribute in cash, in an envelope, without being asked.
- Put your phone on silent or better yet: turn it off.
- Don’t bring valuables that could distract you.
Sessions frequently take place at Fetisch Institut Berlin. But hotel sessions, club appearances, meetings in public, restaurants or fly me to you are also possible. The exact details will be discussed in advance.
4. Mental Preparation
BDSM is 80% mental. Your state of mind determines how deeply you can immerse yourself in the experience.
What helps:
- Reduce stress beforehand. Don’t come straight from a hectic meeting into a session.
- Let go of expectations. A session is not a porn scene. It’s real, raw and personal. You are not allowed to come with expectations, only with anticipation.
- Build trust. Surrendering control takes courage, but it also requires a willingness to let yourself be vulnerable. It’s difficult to fully enjoy such an intimate experience if you can’t trust the other person enough to let go and allow yourself to fall into the moment. Trust creates the foundation that makes genuine intimacy possible.
- Understand why you’re here. What drives you? What do you want to feel?
“Once you have immersed yourself in my spider’s web of eroticism, I will forever remind you that you have one purpose in your life: to serve me.”
5. Clothing and Gifts
- Wear comfortable, discreet clothing. You’ll be changing or undressing anyway.
- Your own fetish wear is welcome if you have it. Discuss this beforehand.
- A preferred outfit for me? I offer the option to choose a desired outfit (surcharge may apply).
- Gifts are welcome, whether from my Throne wishlist or personally selected. Keep the receipt in case a size doesn’t fit.
6. After the Session
The session ends, but the experience lingers. It’s normal to feel strong emotions afterwards: euphoria, exhaustion, vulnerability or even so-called “sub-drop” (an emotional low after intense play).
What you should do:
- Take some time after the session. Avoid scheduling a stressful appointment immediately afterward. Give yourself space to reconnect with everyday life and reflect on how you’re feeling.
- Drink plenty of water, eat something light.
- Take a moment afterward to think about what resonated with you. Remember that BDSM is often a journey of self-discovery. Take time to explore your reactions to each experience: What excites you? What felt unexpectedly comfortable or challenging? Which moments created a sense of connection, fulfillment, or personal growth? Reflecting on these experiences can help you better understand your desires, boundaries, and the dynamics that resonate most with you.
- Feedback is welcome. Leave an entry in my guestbook or write me an e-mail. It helps us both for future sessions.
