Think you can squirm your way out of that tie? Think again.

In this playful, movement-focused rope workshop, Rorpheus guides you through the push and pull between freedom and restraint. We'll explore how the body moves in rope—and how riggers can restrict or allow those movements to either trap or tease their partner. From escape techniques to tie mechanics, this class is all about understanding the "why" behind the "how."

The workshop focuses on building rope fluency and scene design through movement challenges. The jam invites participants to attune, test, and play with others using the skills they've learned.

💫 What You’ll Explore:

🪢 Joint Mechanics & Movement Paths: Understand what body parts naturally do—and how rope can interfere with or support that motion.

🌀 Designing Escape Challenges: Learn how to create scenes where bottoms can try to break free (and riggers can learn to stop them!).

🛠️ Restrictive vs. Decorative Ties: Explore the difference between pretty rope and practical control, and when to use each.

🧠 Rope Logic & Scene Planning: Use rope intentionally, whether your goal is playfully frustrating your partner or giving them just enough freedom to think they have a chance.

🤸 Bottoming for Movement: Learn how to move with the rope, test your limits safely, and give feedback to your top in real time.

🎯 Workshop Format:

1. Interactive Demonstrations & Group Practice
2. Solo & Partnered Learning (come with or without a partner)
3. Open-level class: all experience levels welcome

🌀 Guided Jam:

In this creative challenge jam, participants will pair up. One person will have one hour to create an escape-focused tie or restraint. After that, the tied partner will attempt to escape within a set time limit. Riggers and bottoms alike can practice adapting ties in real time and observing movement and strategy.

We'll close with a group reflection to discuss what worked, what surprised us, and what we might try next time.

This jam is all about playful creativity, attunement, and refining your rope problem-solving.
