Workshops: Part, day or weekend
Kinky ropes for intimate floorplay
Tell me more: Stay grounded and have a LOT of fun with these hot & spicy ties
Description: When we tie our partner with rope, what are the depths of intimacy that we uncover? If we are freed of the constraints of learned patterns and of the limitations invoked by suspension – how much deeper can we play?
Pre-requisites: This can be delivered for all levels: beginner through to intermediate/advanced. For Int/Adv participants should be able to tie a safe and stable gote (or adaptive alternate chest harness), have control of uplines and be able to tie a secure lock-off.
Please ensure awareness of own and partner’s limitations, boundaries and preferences. Ability to communicate safely and clearly with each other is a must. Both partners need to be aware of physical risks, nerve impingement and be able to communicate any limitations – not just physical. Safety, curiosity, consent and respect are expected throughout.
There will be time for reflection between ties, and as the title implies this workshop will involve intimacy – no matter how participants define this, they must ensure they are comfortable with the level of intimacy with their partner. All ties are optional, and if a couple needs to sit out for any reason we ask them to quietly respect the space of others.
