Blue

I couldn't help but smile as I prepared for today's lesson. An assortment of handcuffs, ropes, tape, and leather straps laid out on the table in front of me. I laid out a sheet over the display and went sat on one of the couches waiting for my class.

It didn't take long for the room to fill with my new students all eager for their next class. They gathered around quickly, murmuring about the covered table. Slowly I made my way up to the front of the group and cross my arms. Automatically the group went silent staring up like obedient students waiting for me to begin.

"I will need a student up here to help me with this lesson." Instantly a few hands went up and some backed away of the unknown. With a smirk I looked at the timid man who stepped back. "Jax come here please." My voice had the edge of a command but gave him the room to say no.

He hesitated slightly before stepping up next to me, his eyes focused on the floor. I ruffled his hair lightly and gave him an encouraging smile.

"Hey sweetie. Can you remember what the clubs Safe words are?" I said quietly.

"Y-yes Master Blue." Jax's voice was soft and shaky.

"Good. Now tell me what they are." I cooed lightly, watching him carefully.

"Green is f-for good. Y-yellow is to slow down. Red is for s-stop." He said, his voice a little stronger.

"Good boy." I gave him another smile and head pat before turning back to the class. I took the sheet off my table displaying  "Today we are going to talk about bondage basics. Nothing complex but enough so you don't hurt your partner while still being able to get kinky." My class laughed lightly but Jax tensed slightly behind me. "Before you start anything to serious verify your partner is willing and knows all his or her safe words. So Jax, sweetie do you feel comfortable enough for me to do a couple simple knots? They will only include your wrist and arms."

"Y-yes master..." He said very lightly and shifted uncomfortably on his feet.

"Now knowing how new someone is to bondage can make the process simpler. For example Jax here is very new so...." I picked up a soft strip of leather and handed it to him. "Its good to let them see or feel what you'll be using. I'm going with soft leather because it's easier on the skin and less binding." I couldn't help but smile more as Jax played with the leather slowly.

Turning to him I took the strip out of his hands and lifted his arm in front of me. Watching his face for panic, I slowly ran the leather across the inside of his wrist and wrapped it around. Carefully I took his second arm and tied the strip around keeping his wrist connected.

"Color?" I asked carefully while tugging at the leather insuring it wasn't to tight.

"Green." He smiled slightly as he looked down and he gave the restraints a curious tug.

"Good boy. Now when using any form of bondage you want to ensure your rope, leather, tape, or whatever you are using stays loose enough to prevent damage. You sound be able to slip at least one finger under the material and have a pair of safety scissors near by just in case. As you can see I started with a simple knot, keeping his hands in front of him." I stepped back slightly keeping a hand on Jax's side to keep him from panicking. "This is one of the easiest for beginners considering it let's the submissive keep some form of control because they are able to move their arms. While its fun for normal playtime it can be bad for punishments or teasing due to the fact they can move." As an example I lightly touched Jax's hip making him shift uncomfortably while looking at the class and push my hands away. "There are two basic solutions to this problem. Simply make it so they can move their hands or move them behind their back."

I hooked my thumb in the leather strip and easily used it to control his hands. Due to the height difference I couldnt raise his hands above his head so I gripped the rope and held him still. Watching him carefully I unwrapped one wrist and before he could fight again, I had both hands behind his back and tied. He blinked confused but let out a little whimper his eyes wide. 

"Its okay sweetie you're doing great. If you can hang on for a couple more minutes we will be done." I rubbed his back lightly waiting for him to calm down or say a safe word. He whimpered again but nodded stepping closer out of instinct. "Good boy." I quickly turned back to class wanted to let Jax out of the restraints. "There is one really big draw back to having a submissives arms tied like this. This position makes it harder for them to lay on their back and it can cause their arms to fall asleep. When having someone's arms bond behind the back always verify the material is not to tight and that they aren't pinching their arms or shoulders."

Slowly I released the bonds around Jax's wrist and massaged his shoulder lightly in comfort. I wrapped my arm around him and slowly pulled him against my chest. He blushed and ducked his head slightly but didn't complain. He relaxed into me and signed lightly.

"Now I want everyone to pair up. Doesnt matter if you are a dominant or a submissive, you will try a coulpe knots that I will show you and take turned being bound. I will check your knots and make sure they are tied right and not to tight or loose. Break off into pairs and we will start." I said calmly to the group before curling Jax into my chest. I couldn't be happier holding him to my chest as he relaxed into me, but I have a class to teach. Slowly I let go making the large man whimper slightly. "It's okay Little Buck, you can work with me." I gave him a small smile before letting go. Time to teach a class.
