Spanking Advice 2: Aim True!
The reason we advice you to practice on an inanimate object is that you must be confident of being able to strike only the safe areas of the body and protect the vunurable spots.
-Well padded areas such as buttocks, thighs and upper arms are safe for spanking/whipping
-Joints or bony areas is NOT safe for spanking/whipping so protect the neck, spine, backs of knees, elbows, shins, ribcage and pelvis.
-Also avoid areas of the body which shield major organs like the kidneys (lower back) and stomach.
-Facial cheeks are the only area of the head that can be safely slapped as long as the neck and jaw are supported.
-Clearly vunurable areas like the ears, nose, mouth and eyes should never hit.
-Breast-spanking in moderation is ok so long as your partner is not pregnant, nursing, prone to cysts or has sillicone implants.

Spanking Advice 3: Choose you Spanking Implements
When using an implement for spanking, be aware that the tip will weild the greatest force, which is why pillow-practicing is vital to ensure a sure and safe aim. <->The tips of an unruly implement like a whip can have a wrap-around effect, catching the vunurable sides of your lover's body like hips so our advice is to wedge pillows around your lovers to procect these areas and safeguard against this 'wrapping' effect.
-The size and shape of a spanking implement will give different sensations and will dictate the force that can you should use.
-Broard, flat shapes like a Heart Spanking paddle, shaped spanking paddle, the palm of your hand or the back of a wide hairbrush deliver diffused sensations whereas thin, circular instruments like a Crop, or a cane deliver intense localized sensation.
-The same goes for whips - multi-tailed version like the Fetish delux Whip diffuse sensations on impact so they are a lot safer than a single-tailed whip - a bull whip which can do damage and should only ever be in experienced hands.
-Heavy, hard instruments like crops must be used cautiously, whereas those made from a light material like a Rubber Whip can be weilded safely with more abandon.

The bottom line is that blows from something that is hard and narrow is more likely to leave lasting marks whereas something hard and flat will leave a lasting redness and soft and flat means no more than a slight blush.

Also the shorter an instrument is, the more easier it will be to control so the Mini Rubber Whip with its soft, tingly tendrils and short strands is one of the sexiest beginner whips around and will deliver sensations that feel much more arousing than "ouch!".

Spanking Advice 4: Timing is Key!
For sensual spanking, getting your timing righ is key. Pain thresholds rise directly in line with arousal (the more turned-on they are, the more spanking they can take) so our advice is to NEVER rush a good spanking!

Spanking Advice 5: Be Creative with Sensations!
Contrasting sensations work achingly well when building arousal, as well as magnifying the sensitivity of your lover's skin - the soft fur side of the Shaped Paddle, is perfect for stroking over smarting buttocks. Also try delivering light kisses to stinging thighs or rubbing ice over the rosy glow of freshly spanked skin will all build skin sensitivity and bodily arousal.
