Ready to dance around the May Pole? After all the dance is a fertility rite, the pole….well you can just guess what that symbolizes, and the baskets at the end of white streamers emanating from the tip doesn’t take all that much imagination, does it?

If you think that dancing naked to celebrate human sexuality is just what the doctor ordered, then you just might be interested in many of the other wonderfully human ways to get to know people and get to know yourself. And if the only dancing you are interested in is that done by a luscious bottom at the end of a single tail (or just wonder what a single tail is), perhaps the kink world might offer a way to find out.

How to get started? Come on in to the Society of Janus’ Newbie Only Coffee Social (NOCS). We’re meeting this month on the evening of the second Monday, May 14. (Two weeks after this year’s May Pole dance but it will give you a bunch of time to practice before the next one). We start at 7 PM.

So you're new to kink and have questions. Everyone does.

• Maybe you've always been curious about the kink/BDSM scene but you'd like some support while you explore.
• Maybe you want to talk to people who have an idea of what you're going through.
• Maybe you just want to meet a few friendly faces before your first kink class or event.

Come to the Newbie Only Coffee Social!

Here's one New Year's resolution that you might even enjoy keeping: Putting more kink into your life.

Come to a Janus orientation and learn more about our kinky club and how you can safely explore BDSM and find community. Our next Orientation is Sunday, Jan 8 from 4-6pm.

I’ve been “editrix” of Growing Pains and Rapid Release for three rewarding years. The time has flown by!

Ho, ho, download this!

My work for SOJ has given me the opportunity to continually research our wide world of play and make connections in this rich community — and for that, I am filled with gratitude.

It's time to step back for a moment, as I take a step into motherhood. I will give birth to a beautiful baby girl shortly.

The holidays are coming and you know what that means:
"Reindeer games!"

Come to a Janus orientation and learn more about our kinky club and maybe how to put a little more fun into that holiday stocking. Our next Orientation is Wednesday, Dec 7 from 7-9pm.
