This class in the Female Domination series is a 3 Day immersive on Predicament, Inescapable and Contortion Bondage

Western or English Style Bondage has become a lost art with the rise in popularity of Shibari. Yet English styles of bondage offer a much more intimate and interactive experience between the Top and the bottom.

Predicament Bondage is interactive, meaning, it does things. the submissive is not held in one position, but rather, when struggling, the bondage sensations will change, thus causing a "Predicament"; a situation where they must make a decision, all of which have their consequences.

Contortion Bondage is a type of predicament bondage that forces the bottom into uncomfortable positions that they must maintain or suffer the consequences.

Inescapable Bondage is yet another form of predicament bondage. It is what it sounds like; bondage with NOW WAY OUT. They can struggle, squirm and attempt free themselves BUT THEY CANNOT ESCAPE!

Mistress Tara had been practicing Predicament Bondage for 30 years. Join Her, one of the last truly great masters of this art in the US today for a weekend intensive you will never forget!
