“There are things that cannot be learned from a class. They are passed. Shared.
Remembered in conversation.
RISE exists for that…”
Mistress Leanne, Event Producer
WHAT IS RISE, WHO IT IS FOR?
The RISE Power Summit is not a typical conference—it is a true convening. A coming together of the Kink, Fetish, BDSM, and Leather communities in an inclusive, female-produced space.
The Summit is open to all, not only the FemDom community… We are stronger when we share space to learn from and with each other.
This intimate, limited-access experience offers:
Direct access to the voices who shaped O/our community
Space for real conversation with those who built the path W/we walk
Opportunities to listen, share, and exchange perspective across generations and niches
RISE is a departure from the expected.
A gathering by design—created for presence, connection, and depth.
We listen.
We remember. We connect.
Where history is honored—and the future we carry forward is shaped.
This is where we RISE.
