What is impact play?
Impact play is an activity in the world of BDSM and kink. It involves one person (the 'top' or 'dominant') delivering various forms of physical impact to another person (the 'bottom' or 'submissive'). The purpose of impact play is typically to create sensations of pain for the sub, which in turn creates pleasure for both partners. Impact play can take many forms, such as spanking, whipping or caning.
What makes it hot?
The appeal of impact play is often rooted in punishment. It's about those fulfilling those fantasies surrounding people in positions of power like school teachers. Many people love impact play purely for the rush of endorphins they receive from the pain. Others like the idea of being branded because the connotations it carries of being owned by somebody.
Safety is paramount. Communicate openly with your partner about limits, use safe words, and establish clear signals to indicate comfort levels. Start slowly, especially if you're new to impact play, and avoid sensitive areas like the kidneys and spine. Regularly check in with your partner to ensure their well-being.
While there is specialised BDSM equipment available, you can start with everyday items like hands, belts, or wooden spoons for lighter impact play. If you progress to more intense activities, consider investing in purpose-built tools like floggers or paddles. Always prioritise the cleanliness and safety of any items used.
Absolutely. Many people find pleasure in both giving and receiving sensations from impact play. It can be a way to explore power dynamics, experience different sensations, and enhance intimacy. Open communication ensures that both partners derive enjoyment and satisfaction from the experience.
DO
Communication: Have an open discussion about why you are both into impact play and what you want to get out of it.
Research: Whether you're spanking or being spanked, it's important to know the right parts of the body which are safe to hit.
Aftercare: No matter how soft or heavy the play, spending close time together afterwards is imperative.
DON'T
Rush: Don't hurry into the hardcore stuff. A slow build of impact play is always sexier, anyway.
Danger zones: Don't go near the lower back. This can cause permanent damage and is a hard no-go area.
No Communication: Don't begin without discussing a safe word. This is crucial to all BDSM play.
