Curious about getting tied up but clueless about how to do it? In this 1-hour class that mixes lecture with class participation, you’ll learn how to find and evaluate a rope partner, negotiate and prepare for a scene, and stay as safe as possible while you’re in rope. No experience necessary. This class is aimed at bottoms, but tops are welcome to attend too if interested in discussing bottoming.

Afterward, if you are 21 or older, you can attend the Meet Your Dream Rope Partner event, filled with hands-on getting-to-know-you games, prizes, and opportunities for play on the spot. This will be a fun, no-pressure, consent-oriented environment. Save 25% on the combo price!
