We offer regularly scheduled in-person orientations on the first Sunday and the third Saturday of every month at 5pm, as well as an online orientation at 7pm the Monday proceeding Taboo, the last Members Party each month. Please check the Calendar to keep apprised of any changes, such as holidays.
Some of our other events, such as the co-sponsored parties, also have orientations.
Greetings new, veteran, just curious, or new-to-our-area kinksters!
Since 1982, Threshold has been the found family to thousands of like-minded people dedicated to exploring BDSM and other forms of kinky play in a safer, sane, and consensual way.

Our Orientations are open to the public and anyone who is 18 or older may attend, free of charge. This is where you will learn about our facility, our mission, our rules of conduct at parties & events, and the basics of what to expect as you explore at Threshold.
