Description
This workshop is tailored towards pairs which tie together. One ticket is shared between a pair.
This is designed and taught by @SwitchMeister and @_Malena for people who already know one single-column tie (any single column tie) and have some idea of rope handling and basic frictions such as a half hitch.
This workshop is tailored towards pairs which tie together. One ticket is shared between a pair. Switching is allowed and will be facilitated throughout the class.
This workshop is for people who already have some basic rope experience and want to explore how rope can become part of erotic, sensual, and intimacy based play. I personally care about the topic of intimacy a lot, and i define intimacy as a form of familiarity with an explicit refusal to constantly pressure myself to become more intimate. I have a series of writings on Fet you’re more than welcome to explore to get an idea of where i’m coming from when it comes to intimacy in rope bondage.
Within the context of the workshop, we will explore how do you build tension, closeness, and anticipation? How do you use rope in ways that support touch, desire, pacing, and connection without getting lost in patterns or performance? This workshop explores rope as a tool for intimacy, eroticism, and physically intimate play. We will look at how rope can reveal intimacy, vulnerability, restriction, attention, and how these concepts can support different kinds of intimate experiences between partners.
Workshop Content
We focus on developing the skills of both the tying person and the person in ropes. We will work on both rope technique and the broader experience of tying, with attention to communication (whatever that means to you), flow, body awareness, and interaction. We will work on rope bondage as "tying with each other" instead of "tying another"
We will explore this workshop through the following themes:
Simple hands behind the back ties (low hands)
Pace, Distance and timing
Anticipation building
Harnesses suitable for Physical Intimacy
Basic understanding of stems in harnesses and how to build and use them like handles
