Welcome Newbies!
The Novice Group meets the second Wednesday of each month,
The Novice Excursion meets the third Saturday of each month

Regardless if you are a brand spanking "newbie" (person just discovering BDSM) or just new to TES or the public scene, THE NOVICE GROUP is for you!

SIG CO-Facilitator's: Bo and Lady D host monthly educational seminars, workshops and frequent social events geared to the BDSM (Bondage, Discipline, Sadomasochism) newcomer. Their number one goal is to provide you with a safe and loving atmosphere where you can get the answers to all your many questions as well as learn both the physical and mental fundamentals of BDSM!

What happens at a TES Novice Meeting? We start the evening with an approximately hour long presentation, then we take a short break and come back and do the famous TES Circle. This is where we all sit in a circle, introduce ourselves briefly (or not if your shy) and ask questions or give feedback on the presentation we just saw or any other thing you'd like to talk about. At the end of the meeting both Bo and Lady D are available to answer any other questions you might have. After the meeting many of the members go to a local restaurant for a snack and some more good conversation.

So what are you waiting for? Life is short! Get off your butt and come on down! You'll be amazed at how welcome you'll feel. Throw on some comfortable clothes, write down all the questions you want to ask and get ready to meet a wonderful group of safe, sane consensual loving people who can help you find what you are looking for. Although our meetings are primarily for the novice they are open to everyone, so bring a friend, a stuffed animal, a hand puppet, come alone, whatever it takes!!! We promise you won't regret it. Remember we were ALL newbies once!

Still too shy? Have an immediate question you need answered? Well then just drop us some E-Mail and let us help! novice@tes.org


Novice Excursion

Also don't forget to go to the Novice Excursion Dinner, held once a month at the Chelsea Gallery Restaurant. These informal "munches" are a chance to get together with other newbies and go to either an SM club or SM party. The Novice Excursion is also hosted by Lady D and Bo

What happens at a TES Novice Excursion? We meet at a "vanilla" (non BDSM), yet alternative lifestyle friendly, diner in NYC. You can just walk in and head to the back room of the diner or tell the person at the register that you are "with TES" and they will bring you to us.

We usually get a crowd of 15 - 30 people which includes some long time members of TES mixed in. You'll sit down and order a snack or some dinner and either make some new friends or just sit and listen to the conversation. That's up to you.

After about 1 hour at the diner we will all head over to The "friendly" SM club Paddles or to a private party (if TES happens to be having one that night). Once there, Bo and Lady D will be on hand to answer any questions you might have and you can watch or participate as you desire.

What do I wear to a Novice Excursion? It really varies. Many people wear casual clothes, while others just wear what they plan to wear that night and just "cover it up" a bit. While it's perfectly acceptable to be a little flashy (after all this is NYC) you'll probably feel most comfortable changing at the club or party if you plan on wearing full fetish gear!

Remember... don't be shy, we're here to help! If you have any further questions just drop us some E-Mail novice@tes.org
