Class Description: Rope for Connection and Intimacy
Celebrate Valentine’s Day with a fun and playful class on building intimacy with rope. The goal of this class is to give attendees the tools they need to have a successful connective and intimate rope scene with 3 easy-to-learn techniques and by leveraging skills you already have.
Rather than focus on hard to learn knots and patterns, MxBliss will demonstrate a few quick and fun purpose-driven ties. Self-tiers are welcome to this class as many of the techniques translate well into a self tie date night with/for yourself!
$25/$27CC
Anytime during a Boundless event, please feel free to opt out of the facilitated activities and tie in the designated areas (generally the back half of the club).
Bring your rope, safety cutter, and your water bottle.
What is the Boundless Rope Experience?
We aim for:
- A learning and labbing environment to teach one another and explore rope in community
- An invitation to make new friends who are interested in rope
- A body neutral and welcoming event for all
- A sober, fun, and potentially sexy (but not sexual) space
- Embracing all types/genres of rope without judgment so long as practices are consent-forward and mitigate risk of injury
Every month, MxBliss will facilitate a class with the aim of sparking conversation/debate, sharing information, and encouraging exploration. While framed as a series, you are free to drop in at any time in the series. Except for the Suspension Class, no pre-requisites for labbing. Also, a tying partner is not required for any of the classes as most technical skills we are covering can be self-tied.
Boundless Rules:
- All partnered rope must be prenegotiated prior to any play/labbing/scene
- Uplines must be reinforced (reinforced jute or hemp) or synthetic (Posh, nylon, MFP, or other rope rated for marine, climbing, or rescue)
- Normal Sanctuary rules about prohibited play: i.e. No neck rope, breath-, race-, rape-, or blood-/scat-/wet- play
- No mind altering substances during Boundless. The bar is closed.
- If you can’t be kind and courteous to everyone you engage with at Boundless, consider going to another event. Direct communication, setting and enforcing boundaries, and being able to say (and receive with gratitude) “No. Thank you!” are all kind and courteous behaviours at Boundless.
+Please DM the organizer if you are unable to afford the event at least 2 weeks in advance as we reserve scholarship seats (and have volunteer opportunities if you’d like to help). Sanctuary is wheelchair accessible. If you have other accessibility questions or requests, please DM the organizer at least 2 weeks prior to the event.
++Folks of all identities are welcome Boundless, though the producer is a queer femme POC and aims to center the experiences of queer, trans, POC and other underrepresented people in rope.
+++ Sanctuary is 21+, LGBTQ+, ADA, anti-racism, and celebrates diversity. Enter on Ninth
