Cohort 001 · Sydney · Twelve seats

Dominance is a skill.
You can be taught it.

Six weeks. Twelve men. One room in Sydney. The world's first school that teaches this as a craft — and the only one that puts real submissive women in the room with you.

  • I

    How to attract submissives — or guide the partner you already have down the path of submission.

  • II

    What to do with them once you have them. In the bedroom and out of it. How to give them experiences that keep them coming back.

  • III

    How to be more Dominant in your daily life too — with family, at work, with everyone you deal with. Ethically, and in a way that makes people listen.

What six weeks buys you

Four things you do not have right now.

  • One

    Women who chase you

    You stop chasing. You get read correctly before you have said a word, and the right women come to you.

  • Two

    A bedroom you actually run

    Scene construction, vetting questions, position training, physical skills, mental Dominance, and the nerve to hold your own state when hers moves.

  • Three

    A life you stop apologizing for

    Most of this translates outside the bedroom. You stop making yourself small, you step out of people-pleasing, and the people around you feel safer as you do it.

  • Four

    A brotherhood of other Doms

    The alumni door stays open, with a private group for ongoing support putting the tools into your love life and daily interactions. Nothing like it exists anywhere else.

You think some men were born with this.

You don't need to be tall. Physically large. Imposing. You don't need a deeper voice, more aggression, money, a full head of hair, or anything else you were issued at birth. Some of the greatest Dominants alive are women who make six-foot-five billionaires quiver with obedience.

Endorsed by

My teaching is endorsed by two well-known Dominatrixes, each with more than ten years in the kink world.

Some of these concepts were developed in collaboration with them. Other parts they have taken the training on themselves. They are open to you reaching out to verify it.

“I’ve known Artyst as long as I’ve been a Pro Domme — twelve years and ticking.”

Our skill sets are symbiotic; whether those concepts We developed together or the skills acquired separately, Our trajectories as Dominants have always traced parallel patterns and Our relationship is one of deep respect — both for one another and for the craft.

The Artyst is not only an exceptional Dominant, but someone capable of exceptional vulnerability, humility and integrity, and I am confident that by the end of your education under Him, you will understand those qualities to be intrinsic to, and interdependent with, the quality of Dominance itself.

There is no other cis male Dom I would recommend learning from except him. Use what you procure responsibly.

“Artyst is a natural leader and genuinely great at helping people feel safe, build confidence and step outside their comfort zone.”

I’ve known Artyst for over a decade, and he’s someone I’ve always really respected for his depth of experience and knowledge when it comes to D/s.

Having experienced the D/s dynamic from both sides, Artyst brings a rare depth of understanding, empathy and perspective, combined with an exceptional ability to communicate, lead and motivate others.

She will listen to you. Before you speak.

The definition

Dominance is the skill of making space for yourself.

“In the world, and in the bedroom. The word comes from dominus — master of the house, built on domus: home. It was never about force. It was about who holds the space. Used ethically, these tools let you make room for yourself and make everyone around you feel safer for it. They feel at home.

It is not aggression. Not cruelty. Not your height, your build, your age, your hairline or your voice. I have watched men who look the part fail in a room in under a minute. Skills are not issued by body type.”

— Artyst

Week one

You get proof in seven days, not six weeks.

You leave night one with a tool you use in ordinary life immediately. It pulls you out of your people-pleasing and gets you noticing every place in your life where you have been handing the decision to somebody else.

It is a craft. Crafts are taught.

The method

Three movements. In order.

  • I

    The man and the frame

    Who you are before anything happens. What Dominance actually is, and why the alpha is a myth. Becoming an authority figure, holding your frame, and the everyday tools that make people make space for you. Kink foundations, done with integrity.

  • II

    The craft

    Reading her. The Elements of Submission and Dominance. Vetting, clear commands, positions, scene construction. Protocols, rituals, rewards and correction. Consent, training plans and contracts.

  • III

    Care, voice and the room

    Aftercare, repair and capacity. Dirty talk. Building the brand that brings her to you. Then real submissives in the room, to test it all for real.

Twenty-one hours in the room

Seven sessions across six weeks

ITue 13 Oct · 6:30–9pmThe Man and the Frame — what Dominance is, and the myth of the alpha. Creating an authority figure, the Pyramid of Power, the mantra. Kink fundamentals and safety. Decide, your first core action. Dominance with integrity, and the Oath.
IITue 20 Oct · 6:30–9pmEveryday Dominance, Authority and the Elements — speaking with conviction, holding your frame, and tools that win people over outside the bedroom. The Four Elements of Submission and the Four Elements of Dominance — what she wants, and what kind of Dom you are.
IIIWed 28 Oct · 6:30–9pmThe Details, Vetting and the Scene — instructions, commands and gestures that land. Position training. The vetting questions that build rapid rapport. How to construct a scene from start to aftercare. Initiate, your second core action.
IVTue 3 Nov · 6:30–9pmRules, Rituals, Correction and Contracts — protocols and rituals, naming, punishments, rewards and praise. More everyday Dominance. Goals, training plans, the consent framework and contracts. Advanced techniques: reframing and the snap induction.
VMon 9 Nov · 6:30–9pmCare, Repair, Dirty Talk and Branding — aftercare in both directions, the drop, rupture and repair, capacity. The five levels of dirty talk. Building your brand on FetLife, Feeld, Instagram and in real life.
VITue 17 Nov · 6:30–9pmThe Studio — real submissives in the room. Co-create, practise and workshop what you've learned with them, get feedback in real time, then a Q&A panel where you can ask them anything. Plus a photography crash course and a live photo shoot. A clothes-on experience.
VIISun 22 Nov · 10am–4pmFull Day Intensive — practical skills from expert teachers, including impact with world-renowned kink educator Hadrian. Shibari fundamentals and integration.
Hadrian

Featuring

An impact play workshop by world-renowned kink educator, Hadrian

@_hadrian88

No other course gives you this much access.

What nobody else has

Two things that do not exist anywhere else.

  • Session VI

    The Studio

    Experienced submissive women come into the room. You co-create, practise and workshop what you have learned with real people, they tell you in real time how it landed, and then you sit with a panel of them and ask anything. A clothes-on experience. Every other course teaches you to dominate and sends you home to find out alone whether it worked.

  • Sessions V & VI

    The Flag

    Every man in this scene has a reputation. Almost none have a brand. The sorting happens before the room — in a profile, a photograph, a name that either carries something or doesn't. You will build yours, then shoot the images that carry it with live models in class.

What others have to say

I worked with Artyst for six months and implemented the tools immediately. I now have two submissive partners for the first time in my life. Everyone is on board and I'm thriving. Cannot recommend him enough.

A · Male, mid-50s, Sydney

Some of the most useful and practical information I've found anywhere in kink education. It was a game changer for me.

S · Melbourne · 2026 workshop attendee

The Artyst Kink is a certified sexologist and kink educator. He has taught to sold-out rooms in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and London. He doesn't just teach mindset or energy Dominance — he gives you real, practical tools that work like clockwork, time and time again.

The guarantee

Attend every session. If you feel like it wasn't worth it for you, send one message, and you get all of your money back.

No questions. No conversation. No excuses needed. I'll just give it right back to you. Claimable for seven days after the intensive. Miss a night but complete the catch-up, and your guarantee stands in full.

And you never pay for this course twice. Every cohort after this one is open to you, for life.

With powerful tools comes responsible use.

Why there is an application

I'm careful about who I teach this work to.

I have taught parts of this before, in cheap workshops, to rooms I did not vet. I watched the tools get misused. People were affected by them in the wrong hands. That is the reason this course has an application and those workshops did not.

Some of these tools are so black and white in their effectiveness that I have to be careful who I give them to. For the good of the women who experience them, and for the good of the Brotherhood we build.

If you are accepted, it means I decided two things. That this will work on you. And that you can be trusted with it. Fill in the application and I will reach out for further discussion if need be.

All of this is literally true

What is actually limited.

  • Twelve seats

    The course is limited to twelve places. When the spots are taken, Cohort 001 is closed.

  • One cohort at a time

    There is no second room running in parallel. Miss this one and the next is months away.

  • $1,800 becomes at least $2,500

    Future cohorts increase in price. Anyone in Cohort 001 can come back unlimited times, at no cost, forever.

Before you ask

The things men actually write to me about.

I'm over fifty. Am I too old?

No. I have taught men in their fifties and sixties who got further in six weeks than men half their age. Age is not the variable. Whether you can be told something is the variable.

I'm short.

So are a lot of the men who are good at this. Height reads for about four seconds. Everything after that is the part I teach.

What if I'm not "Brad Pitt" attractive?

I have taught that man. More than once, and he tends to do well — for a reason worth knowing. He stopped expecting to be chosen on presentation a long time ago, so he is willing to learn the part that actually works. Men who have always been able to coast on looks often find this harder, not easier.

I'm not strong. I don't have a deep voice.

Neither do most of the men who are good at this. Nothing in the six weeks depends on being able to intimidate anyone. A man who is relying on that is doing something else, and it is not this.

Does size matter?

Not for this. I understand why you are asking — it comes up privately more than anything else on this page. Not one of the skills in this course runs on it.

What if I'm not naturally confident?

Almost no one is. Confidence is a result here, not an entry requirement. And even if you are already confident, this course shows you how to get others to follow your confidence.

Isn't this about controlling someone?

No. Dominance is making space for yourself, not taking it from anyone. A man who needs someone smaller than him in order to feel large is not what this teaches, and he does not get a seat.

I'm too nice. Is that a problem?

Kindness is not the opposite of Dominance. Submission is — and right now you are not choosing to submit to others, you are defaulting to it. Keep the kindness. Week one is where you stop handing her every decision.

What if I do all of it and it still doesn't work on me?

Then you send one message and get all of your money back. That is what the guarantee is for.

Do I need a partner?

No. The material works either way, and Session VI is where you hear from different subs in the room — extra perspectives whether you have a partner or not.

What if I can't make one of the dates?

Tell us in your application. A catch-up session is included, and completing it keeps your guarantee intact.

Do I have to be experienced?

Not expert level. This isn't a totally introductory course, so some experience or knowledge helps. But we cover fundamentals in week one, and even with ten years behind you, you will learn something.

Is it discreet?

Twelve vetted men and a room nobody advertises. The address goes out after acceptance. Discretion is assumed, in both directions.

Who is The Artyst Kink?

A certified sexologist and kink educator who does not show his face. The reason for that is part of the method he teaches. You are welcome to ask for further verification.

What happens after I apply?

You'll generally hear from me within a few days. If we end up speaking, I'll usually make a decision on a place in this cohort within a few days of that.
