Every 1st Sunday of the month

An amazing class about WHO we tie not what and how to build and maintain connection in a rope scene. I HIGHLY recommend being a tying pair when attending but you can come solo. The Shibari 103 is the thinking behind the tying. It starts with your story and connecting the dots. History and the aesthetics, educational rope games, predicament bondage, advanced scenes, rope for the less than bendy, pain ties, intimate negotiations and sex ties. We also have specialty classes of blood flow and nerve mapping for suspension. The 103 classes also cover partial suspension and beginning self suspension. These are big classes with big concepts. Furniture ties, bamboo and outdoor scenes. Master ground tying skills and be prepared for learning the next steps to full suspensions. Welcome to the next progression of education ABC'S of Shibari 101, Shibari 102.

$25 CASH requested per person . ($30 if Zelle of Venmo)
