Dear MasterMagnus321, Ladies and Gentlemen;
 
One can always learn from everybody.  I would suggest looking to see if there is a MaST Chapter in your area. (MaST means: Masters and Slaves Together), the BDSM Support and or Education Groups. 
 
In addition, do consider please, attending conventions where many presenters are proffered and workshops often given.
 
Another consideration to entertain, would be attending an Academy style weekend, such as Buchman's or Master Taino's Training Academy.
 
Books are helpful however, it needs to be mentioned that the book usually is with the author's personal experiences, knowledge and or research. I highly recommend Jay Wiseman's books from S&M 101; Screw the Roses by Master Phil Miller and Molly Devon -- Although Master Phil passed away too soon in life, the book is a good book for beginners and looks at many angles.
For Bondage, the "Book of Knots" is full of a variety of knots--very helpful.
 
Web sites are also filled with information.  Iron-Rose.com has a Library section which has presenters of all sorts write on topics.  FrugalDomme.com is another resource avenue.  In addition one can often 'Google' BDSM terms and pull information.
 
Special Interest Groups, also known as SIGs may be listed in Yahoo Groups to which may narrow your focus to where you wish to seek information.
 
Some presenters work a 'circuit' per se, visiting groups on the way back home as to share their skills and knowledge, since they have to pass by anyway.
 
People have at time pooled their resources, such as a few BDSM or MaST groups join in the effort to have an presenter that they couldn't obtain in a single group fashion. 
 
Just some thoughts.
 
Respectfully submitted for consideration,
Lady Hugs

I am fortunate to be neighbors with Mistress Sassy.. She and I make fore a VERY dangerous combination at some of the sick and twisted ideas We come up with... She's "mean".. I'm "sadistic".. heh heh heh  Match made in K-Mart right there.

However, Lady Hugs is absolutely right in saying We can learn from *everybody*.  Some of My best ideas spawn from chats with subs/slaves and the occasional sadistically masochistic switch.

I'm embarassed to admit, but I also get great ideas from various BDSM porn sites I visit... a great place to start (IMHO) is http://www.pichunter.com/all/bdsm.shtml ... there's a lot of staged pictures and "fluff" to sift through, but there are some decent galleries to be found in there.

Hello ....
There are a few precious demo videos out there as well (if it be the techniques of play you wish to learn). 
Good luck in your journey.

Peace,
shell

Before living the lifestyle I read lots of books, and watched many many videos, a good book is "Forget the roses give me the thorns" especially if you have an interest in s&m.  Good luck on your journey
