December 9th: Something Educational

This is something a little different. Are you ready?

Promo text against a background of pink glitter. The text reads: Mistress Celestina's Disciplinary Academy: an introductory pamphlet for prospective students of submissive discipline. (Happy Holidays)

This is an excerpt from a possible pamphlet for Mistress Celestina’s. I thought you might find it entertaining 😀

Mistress Celestina’s Disciplinary Academy 

“absolutum dominium; fortitudo obsequium”

Mistress Celestina’s Disciplinary Academy is nestled in the outskirts of Santa Rita’s Sun Hill district, a handsome mansion bound by lush gardens and a forbidding iron fence too tall to climb. It was once the property of the eccentric Adeline duBoir, a society rake known for her lavish and soirees where she entertained the finest of Santa Rita’s bohemian artists, poets, and musicians, and their scandalous patrons.

Now the mansion has been converted by Mistress Celestina into a school of Discipline, where for a modest tuition persons of any disposition can be molded into the finest of submissives and slaves. Mistress Celestina’s staff of reputable Dommes and Doms are only too keen to dispense whatever is necessary to unlock a student’s ardent submission, honing them into willing and eager vessels for their owners desires.

Students may be enrolled as day-students or borders, on a short or long-term basis. Single sessions as well as weekly or monthly programs are on offer, in addition to the long form study program, which is intended for the truly dedicated, or truly unrepentant.

Scholarships are available for exceptional applicants, possessed of the necessary qualities. Fees may be offset by services performed in the interest of the school, as necessary.

Events are held at regular intervals in which students may be required to display their progress for the edification of mistress Celestina’s guests. By special arrangement, private parties may be held in any of the school’s well-appointed venues: the conservatory, for large gatherings; the tea rooms, for intimate soirees; the dungeon, for more physical activities; or the dining hall, for formal occasions.

For more information, apply through the usual channels.

Curriculum

The Academy offers classes in a variety of styles of submission. They can be taken as a complete course or as individual subjects, as available.

Current classes include deportment, discipline, restraint, sufferance, etiquette, performance, service, humility, transgression, and silence.

Deportment

Taught by Monsieur Cravache, Mr Knox

The Art of Deportment encompasses the whole range of physical motions associated with submission. From proper positioning to proper motion, this class intends to impart a full understanding of the submissive’s body and how it must be controlled to create a pleasing affect. In the full program, slave positions and poses are covered in depth, however only a limited number are taught in the short program due to time constraints.

Discipline

Taught by Monsieur Cravache, Miss Liberty

The Art of Discipline covers behaviour surrounding discipline and punishment. Students are disciplined in order to discover their limits and to give them a greater understanding of their responsibilities in receiving discipline.

Restraint 

Taught by Master Gabriel, Miss Liberty

The Art of Restraint explores the submissive’s ability to give up the autonomy of their bodily movements. Various methods are demonstrated and endured, from Shibari to the stocks, and limits will be tested. (Students must disclose any physical limitations upon enrollment.)

Sufferance 

Taught by Monsieur Cravache, Miss Liberty

The Art of Sufferance, a sister to the Art of Discipline, delves into what can be endured when it must be endured. Students are challenged to suffer at the hands of our most skilled sadists, and pushed to find within themselves the strength to accept suffering without complaint.

Etiquette

Taught by Mr Knox

The Art of Etiquette lays out the correct and proper behaviour for submissives in High and Low Protocol environments. It also covers the correct manner in which conduct oneself at several traditional styles of event. This course is designed to give the submissive a sense of security surrounding their behaviour, to relieve the burden of uncertainty. 

Performance

Taught by Master Gabriel

The Art of Performance deals with exhibitionism and display. Students are encouraged to shed fears regarding body image or reception, and instead to revel in exposure. They are also trained in how best to display themselves for the gratification of voyeuristic audiences, and when it is and is not appropriate to indulge in performance.

Service

Taught by Mr Knox

The Art of Service details the protocol of serving a Dominant. Not limited to the practice alone, this class explores what it means to serve, and how to devote oneself to the needs of another. A range of tasks are discussed and demonstrated. For particular task types, please specify on enrollment. 

Humility

Taught by Master Gabriel, Miss Liberty

The Art of Humility provides the student with the experience of humiliation and acceptance. Students are encouraged to act out scenes of humiliation, indulge their feelings of shame and self-disgust, and embrace them. 

Transgression

Taught by Master Gabriel

The Art of Transgression is an adjunct to the Art of Humility, exploring those acts which are not physically degrading yet provoke strong reactions in submissives when forced upon them. Students are encouraged to roleplay, and stretch their limits. They may find themselves attracted to a role they had not considered for themselves. 

Silence

Taught by Mr Knox

The Art of Silence is part of slave training, however all submissives can benefit from it. The philosophy behind it is that a slave should be seen and not heard. This class enforces silence, guiding students into the acceptance of their own invisibility. The student is encouraged to give themselves over to the helplessness of silence, and thus silence must be voluntary. However, gags and other devices may be used for disciplinary purposes as required.


I hope that was fun for you! I definitely had fun making it ^_^
