Join us for a guided journey into the exciting world of rope bondage.
Designed for curious, caring creatures, this class will explore the art forms potential for profound intimacy, connection and trust building.

We will learn the important foundations of safety and rope-craft before learning some basic yet effective techniques for empowering your inner rope-top.

The lesson structure is designed so that no previous experience is required.

This event will be half social fun times with a bunch of like minded queer people and half super cute workshop times!

What we will cover?

Shibari is the erotic practice of traditionally informed Japanese rope bondage.

In this intimate workshop we will explore exercises and forms to find deeper connection while engaging with this beautiful practice.

What should I bring?

A learning buddy who is comfortable exploring intimacy and connection with you. Due to the nature of this workshop we will not be pairing attendees up at the workshop but you don’t have to join in any exercise and can just watch and learn.

If you have your own rope please feel free to bring your own. We will have rope available to borrow for the workshop or purchase to take home.

We advise wearing comfy clothes appropriate for sitting on the floor.

Who will be teaching?
