MASTER TROOPER FRANK BDSM Training and Education

About Master Trooper Frank

Master Trooper Frank is a retired police officer who has served both in New York and Portland, Oregon for 30 years. His involvement in the BDSM community began in college and progressed over 40 years to include mentoring, teaching, and his greatest achievement - the creation of a Leather Family with Master Paul, slave willie and slave-candidate steve. Trooper Frank has been a regular presenter at KinkFest for many years, and presents at many events and venues around the West and Canada. His interests include emphasis on edge play and interrogation sessions, along with the psychology of mindfucking. The application and preservation of the philosophy of the "Old [Leather] Guard" is something that Trooper is passionate about, and that which is followed by his slaves and boys in training. That the application of sensation play is only half the equation if psychological and emotional connections have not been established is a firm belief. In June 2013, Master Trooper Frank, along with the members of His Leather Family and others, founded Bridgetown Leathermen, Portland's Men's Leather Fraternity.

Master Trooper Frank is the proud owner of slave willie and Master Paul (fka slave paul), who wear His bootprint on their hearts, and whom he watches over with a firm hand and a passionate heart.

About Master Paul

Master Paul has been involved in the Leather community since meeting his Master in 1995. After acquiring experience and demonstrating adherence to Old Guard principles, he was formally Collared by Master Trooper Frank 12 years later in 2007. In June 2014, Master Paul was formally Capped by His Master after earning the right to that title. Master Paul has participated in many of Master Trooper's workshops, and has also become a presenter in his own right at events such as KinkFest, PLA workshops, The 15 Association's Boot Camp, Bad Girls, Metro Vancouver Kink, Talking Kink, In the Woods, Leatherwoods, RCDC and Tribal Instincts, among others. He is frequently asked to present on a variety of subject including Master/slave relationships, boot blacking, and CBT to name a few. Master Paul regularly trains, cultures, and mentors boys and prospective slaves in the Old Guard traditions, and for possible integration into the Family. Master Paul works hand-in-glove with Master Trooper, slave willie, and slave-candidate steve in the administration and operation of the Family. In June 2013, Master Paul, along with the members of His Leather Family and others, founded Bridgetown Leathermen, Portland's Men's Leather Fraternity.

About slave willie

slave willie first served Master Trooper Frank during the 2003 Folsom Street Fair weekend in San Francisco. In the years that followed, slave willie became a slave-in-training, experiencing various BDSM activities under Master Trooper's hand, while learning the joy of submission. In 2007, after working to demonstrate his focus, service, devotion and obedience, slave willie was formally Collared by Master Trooper Frank. His commitment to Master Trooper Frank's precepts of Honor, Integrity and Loyalty help him to navigate daily life. slave willie relishes spending time with his Leather Family and is fully devoted to Master Trooper Frank.

As a member of the pre-eminent 15 Association of San Francisco along with his Master and slave-brother, slave willie attends various 15 Association events of which Boot Camp is his favorite. slave willie has the pleasure and honor to participate in Master Trooper Frank's instructional demonstrations at KinkFest and other events. In June 2013, slave willie, along with the members of his Leather Family and others, founded Bridgetown Leathermen, Portland's Men's Leather Fraternity.

Upcoming Workshops and Appearances

Edgeplay: Using Subtlety and Extremes to Create Intensity (Master Trooper, Master Paul)

Past Workshops and Appearances

This Thing of Ours: M/s and D/s relationships (Panel Discussion) (Master Trooper, Master Paul)

Master. Mistress. Slave. Dominant. Domme. Submissive. Pet. Just like the families of the Mafia, dynamic-infused poly families incorporate power exchange, protocol, and hierarchy to be successful. But how do they really work?

We invite you to 'sit in' for our special workshop during Oregon Leather Pride week, August 2 at the University Place Hotel.

Our panel is made up of Friction and his slave whiplashgirlchild, Master Trooper Frank and Master Paul, Master SunNoble and her family, and Artextreme and his slave KinkyAbby. The subject is an open discussion of M/s D/s and other dynamics in multi-partnered relationships.

Let the Sparks Fly: Electricity in the Dungeon (Master Paul)

Electrical play can be sensual, arousing, exciting, or terrifying... sometimes all at once. In this workshop, Master Paul will cover basic safety and techniques of using stun guns, TENS units, violet wands and more. Select audience members will have an opportunity to experience the sensations first hand in this interactive workshop.

Power-Exchange Relationships (Master Trooper, Master Paul, slave willie)

People often ask our Leather family how four strong and independent men joined together into a cohesive and loving family unit. In this workshop we will reveal how we chose to follow our hearts to build an enduring bond together. Master Trooper and His Leather family will lead a no-holds-barred discussion about what it means to be in a functional, polyamorous, power-exchange relationship, and the sacrifices we choose to make for the benefit of all. We will discuss how mutual respect, devotion, loyalty, and unconditional love are essential to the success of our Leather family and can be beneficial to your own family. Learn how applying traditional Leather values can help build and nurture healthy real-life relationships. Join us and share your experiences in this participatory workshop.

Master/slave Intensive (Master Trooper, Master Paul)

What does it mean to be a Master? What's the difference between a sub, a boy and a slave? Why would anyone choose a Master/slave way of life? Join Master Trooper Frank and Master Paul (aka slave paul), for an interactive workshop on Master/slave relationships. Topics to be covered include locating and screening potential partners, building trust and the relationship, training and assessment, collaring, growth and changes in roles, and integrating M/s into every day life. In addition, the subjects of polyamory, long-distance relationships, setting standards and expectations, discipline and correction, aging and health, and building a healthy Leather Family will be discussed. Attendees will be active participants in the program and will have the opportunity to ask questions throughout the intensive.

Aging in the Scene (Panel Discussion) (Master Paul)

Polish and Shine (Master Paul)

Polishing and worshiping boots is an integral part of slavehood in the Old Guard way of life. But the mechanical act of bootblacking is only a tiny part of the experience. Whether you identify as Master, slave, Dom, sub, or switch, there are many reasons that you should integrate this beautiful and powerful ritual into your daily life... even if you are not currently in a relationship. Come join us for this interactive workshop and learn how to shine from within as you polish. If you have a pair of boots or shoes that will take a high-gloss shine, feel free to bring them. Other supplies you should bring if you have them include: polish (Kiwi parade gloss black preferred), an old cotton t-shirt or other lint-free cotton rag, and a polishing brush. If you do not have these supplies on hand, we will have some limited extras available.

Putting Your Heart into It: Mastery and slavery beyond the dungeon walls (Master Paul, Master Trooper, slave willie)

Sure, time in the dungeon is great, isn't that the point... or is it? For most of us, the time available for play is less than 5% of our day-to-day existence, so what about the other 95%? Is it possible to nourish your power exchange dynamic while you're working, doing the laundry, grocery shopping, or polishing boots? Come join us for an interactive workshop that will help you keep the intensity and passion alive 24/7 by looking at the mundane world from a purposeful Old Guard perspective. Make small changes in your mindset and behaviors and you'll see things in an entirely different way that will help your power-exchange relationship flourish whether you are deep in the dungeon or scrubbing the floor. Whether you are Master, Mistress, Dom, switch, sub, or slave, put your heart into it and feel the flames passions come to life.

Balls to the Wall: CBT from both sides (Master Paul, Master Trooper, slave willie)

Drop 'em, boy. The feelings of vulnerability and surrender from dropping trou for a sadist are like nothing else. Add restraint and a delicious mix of pain-pleasure and you've got a recipe for mind-blowing intensity. Join Master Paul and his Leather Family in this unique exploration of techniques from a Top's perspective, and maintaining positive headspace from the bottom's perspective. A variety of techniques including percussion, electrostim, temperature, compression, nerve stimulation and more will be utilized to both arouse and torture his subject. Every seat will be close to where the whimpering, moaning, and groaning can be heard.

Second Annual Leather Dinner (Master Trooper)

In an age that promised to bring people closer together through the use of technology, we are clearly seeing signs that humans are further apart from one another than any time in recent history. Technology, while a marvel to behold, has actually driven us into more isolation rather than togetherness. This is as evident in the Leather and BDSM community as it is anywhere else in society. We need to return to more traditional means of connecting with one another, and "getting real"- developing relationships that lead to connections, networking, cross-training, and most importantly- real, hands – on experiences with one another, so that we will be able to perpetuate and keep alive the traditions and practices to which we all are drawn.

Just when you thought they were safely tucked away in your pants, gentlemen, warped minds have concocted myriad ways to "awaken" the nervous system that serves the cock and testicles. In this session, I will utilize a sub who will undergo exquisite torture as well as downright visceral and "crude" ministrations. Percussion, electrostim, sounding, heat, ice, compression, binding, nerve wheeling, and creative use of SM equipment to arouse as well as punish the subject, will be demonstrated. Every seat will be close to where the whimpering, moaning, and groaning can be heard. Attendees will get to witness me using my stun gun to get a "rise" out of my boy.

Although these techniques will be demonstrated on the male anatomy, many can be adapted to trans and female bodies.

Interrogation Scenes and Techniques (Master Trooper)

Come join MASTER TROOPER FRANK and Master Paul for an intense and intimate workshop on interrogation scenes. Watch the sparks fly as the powerful chemistry between MASTER TROOPER and Master Paul develops in this balls-to-the-wall battle of the wills.

The purpose of any given Interrogation is to retrieve information from the interrogatee. For purposes of those of us in the BDSM community, we can broaden the definition of an interrogation to include the recreational pursuit of dominating, captivating, physically abusing, torturing, and most importantly, psychologically mind-fucking the prisoner to the point that he or she gives up the previously planted information. In the process of extracting that information, the Interrogator is free to use the infliction of pain, electroshock, forced abnormal prolonged positions, food and sleep deprivation, beatings, mock execution, breath control, hypersound generation or sensory deprivation, painful bondage, and whatever you and the prisoner have negotiated prior to the session (if that is your relationship). Counter to this list is the most crucial tool in the Captor's pocket, and that is psychological manipulation, to include becoming the prisoner's friend and attempting to obtain cooperation. This workshop is a very involved and intricate class with the goal of giving the attendees the skills needed to negotiate, set-up, institute, produce and successfully complete a session with the interrogatee surrendering or "breaking" under the administered pain, pleasure or both. The psychological and physical dynamics will be discussed and demonstrated with my subject strapped into an interrogation chair. Aftercare and pitfalls and benefits of this type of activity will be addressed.

Warning: this workshop is not for the faint of heart. Be prepared for raw, powerful, intense, and emotional interaction between Master and slave, Interrogator and prisoner. At past workshops some attendees have been moved to tears as a result of the experience.

Trust, Loyalty, and Devotion (Master Paul)

Metro Vancouver Kink's Westward Bound
February 3-5 2012
Vancouver, B.C.

Trust. We hear that term used over and over again in BDSM and experiences in the dungeon, but what does it really mean? How does it develop and how can it be destroyed? How does it impact the quality and depth of interaction between partners in the dungeon? Why does it matter?

Loyalty is among one of the most powerful principles which can have a profound impact upon our emotions, either positively, or when faced with a lack of Loyalty, negatively. Learn how to conduct yourself with Integrity and how to effectively earn and maintain the Loyalty of others.

Most Masters and Mistresses ultimately want a devoted slave; someone who dedicates their heart, mind, body, soul, and even their life to their Master or Mistress. A true slave wants and needs to devote themselves to another person as an inextricable part of who and what they are at their deepest core. Learn how to be worthy of this devotion and how to give it unconditionally whether you are a Master, a Mistress or a slave.

In these days of instant gratification and "Velcro collars" it is becoming increasingly rare to find a Master, Mistress, or slave willing to invest the time, energy, effort, and thought into a power-exchange relationship that will give it the best possible opportunity for success. Learn how to utilize effective screening methods, how to actively listen and interpret both what is being said and what is not being said to make an informed decision before a Collar is locked into place. At its core, a power-exchange relationship is still a relationship designed to fulfill the real needs and desires of all parties involved. Learn how to openly discuss the terms of both short-term training contracts and lifetime contracts. Discover the purpose and meaning behind a slave's petition to a prospective Master and why the petition and a formal Collaring ceremony are so important.

Whether you identify as Master, slave, Dom, sub, or switch, there are many reasons that you should integrate this beautiful and powerful ritual into your daily life... even if you are not currently in a relationship. The simple yet elegant act of boot worship is often an overlooked celebration between Master and slave or Dom and sub. It is beautiful way to bring focus to a scene as it begins to unfold and heighten the connection between those involved in a scene.

The Art of Bottoming (Panel Discussion) (Master Paul)

What makes a successful bottom? just lying there and allowing someone beat on you? As much fun as that might be, there are ways for a bottom to make a scene a lot more rewarding for everyone involved... but how? Come explore that question with a panel made up of bottoms, Tops, Doms/Dommes, switches, and others. What are the roles and responsibilities of the bottom? What makes someone a bottom with whom Tops are eager to play with? We'll discuss how bottoms enhance the scene, negotiations, follow up and aftercare, energy exchange, and more. You'll have a chance to ask questions publicly or anonymously. It's expected to be a lively discussion! Tops, bottoms, switches, and everyone inbetween are welcome to attend. Who knows, you may meet a future scene partner!

Whether your sub is a man or a woman, one of the most powerful erogenous points on the body are the nipples. Learn how to awaken the nervous system that serves these hot nubs. In this session, I will utilize a sub who will undergo sensual arousal, exquisite torture, as well as downright visceral and crude ministrations. Rubbing, flicking, twisting, clamps, percussion, electrostim, heat, ice, nerve wheeling, weighting, and creative use of other SM equipment to arouse as well as punish the subject, will be demonstrated. Every seat will be close to where the moaning, groaning and whimpering can be heard.

Dungeon Safety, Skills and Etiquette

Whether you are a seasoned or novice member of the wonderful world of BDSM, it is sometimes a wise choice to expose yourself to the rules, practices and "etiquette" of dungeon behavior. In doing so, you can protect individual health thru the use of universal precautions and barrier protection, build better trust and relationships, assure a smoother and more intimate scene, understand how to handle emergencies, provide appropriate aftercare and how to coexist in a "public" or multi-user playspace. I recommend this workshop highly for new entrants into BDSM as well as more established individuals who may have gotten into a "rut" and can use a refresher course. Come join me for the foundational workshop upon which those that follow will build upon.
