Toronto Bound 2014 Educational Series Presenters

Master Tony Palazzo

I have the honour of being awarded the titles of International LeatherSIR 2009 and Eastern Canada LeatherSIR 2009, as well as Pantheon of Leather’s Canadian Community Service Award for 2011. I am humbled to be a charter member of the Leather Skills Certification Council (still in its infancy); an online certification council of International Leather Folk who have proven skill sets in areas of BDSM play.

I came out in the 70’s. I strongly believe in Mentoring in our community in order to share our Leather/BDSM experiences, knowledge and sexuality. Education is extremely important for our special play! I’ve been privileged to present around North America, including International LeatherSIR/boy, CLAW, Spring in the South, Kink Kamp and Toronto Leather Pride, So you Want to be Kinky among others.

With 30 plus years experience in Leather/BDSM, I always subscribe to and maintain the creed of “Safe, Sane and Consensual”…but I believe that “Fun” weighs equally in the equation.

Victoria Windsor

Victoria is a familiar face amongst the Toronto leather folks. She is a former exotic dancer, former Pro Domme, and a current Documentary film maker. She was Central Canada Olympus Leather 2008, and has presented workshops at Tribal Fire in Oklahoma City, So You Want To Be Kinky in Toronto, Unholy Harvest in Ottawa, Twisted Leprechaun in Dublin, Ireland, and private workshops in Barrie, Oshawa, and Windsor Canada. She is thrilled to be teaching about her favorite toy, single tail whips, at Toronto Bound 2012.

Master Chuck’s boy iain

Master Chuck’s boy iain has been exposed to Leather and BDSM for the better part of 14 years in the Ottawa and Toronto gay and pansexual communities. It seemed wherever he went; iain was always close to kinky men and women. Thanks to meeting his partner, Scott aka Master Scott, 15 years ago, iain slowly started to explore the Leather lifestyle.

Eight years ago, boy iain was collared as a member of the Leather family headed by Master Chuck in a committed D/s relationship, signing his first contract in April 2006. As well as being currently owned by Master Chuck, iain also enjoys switching. boy iain held the title of Eastern Canada Leatherboy 2011, a players title.

Education in Leather is important to iain who has also taught at a number of events over the past five years including teaching and demo bottoming at a number of different events across Ontario, Quebec and the United States. iain was also a Co-Chair for the Local Organizing Committee of the Leather Leadership Conference XIV – Great Lakes/Detroit.

Nick Elliott – International Mr. Bootblack 2012

After Nick left the US Military in 2004, he spent his formative
leather years in Texas, learning about being a boy, and developing his
bootblacking style. He spent three years on the Board of EROS, a long
time pansexual group in Houston, and two years as a member of
NLA-Houston. He has done boots all over the country at different
events and bars, and helped to raise over $7,000 for charity.

He is one of the founding members of the PDX bootblacks and is proudly
Oregon State Bootblack 2011, and International Mr. Bootblack 2012.

Nick describes himself as a bi-poly-pagan-kinky-gamer-geek – or slut
for short, enjoys switching for impact and rough body play, and he
loves to bite. He is also turned on by bears, armpits, gloves and
cigars.

He currently lives in Portland, Oregon with his lovely wife of
fourteen years, and has a boyfriend in Edinburgh who he sees when he
can.
