Florentine Flogging
Join Angel and Tiger and learn the art of Florentine flogging.
The term “Florentine” was originally designated to the art of wielding two weapons. Florentine Flogging refers to the art of using two floggers, one in each hand, in many combinations. It’s most commonly thought of as swinging two floggers in interlocking figure 8 patterns.
Florentine is both elegant to watch and rhythmical to feel. Angel and Tiger will discuss Florentine flogging; the best types of floggers to use; provide some Florentine demonstrations; and then use simple formulas to teach the techniques. You will leave with the knowledge needed to incorporate some double handed rhythms into corporal punishment scenes and the skills to add some flare into your flogging style.
This is a “hands on” class so it would be ideal for students to bring two floggers which are the same or similar length and weight. A good length when starting out with Florentine flogging is about 60-80cm.
It’s best if there is some weight in the fall so that the strands fall easily together, but not so heavy that they are hard to manage when wielding for a period of time. You can bring articulated floggers, although they can be a little more difficult to handle.
With practice this will be one lesson you will never forget. Tiger and Angel will work with everyone in the class so that you will go away with the knowledge to “Florentine up a storm”.
