Rope Bite!

Curious about rope bondage, but don't know where to start? Looking for a chance to connect with the rope community? Since 2010, Rope Bite San Francisco has provided a welcoming, all-inclusive social venue for meeting fellow rope lovers and practicing your bondage skills. All you need to attend is an interest in rope! If you don’t have your own rope yet, don’t worry – we’ll have loaner rope you can use. We’ll also have handouts on safety, and hosts will share some basic techniques during the event.

Rope Bite SF is back again! At a rad new venue! Come hang out, have a beverage, and make new friends at our generous new venue: A.B.O. Comix, at 2520 Telegraph Ave, in Oakland. Rope Bite is a completely free event, and no tickets are needed. However, please review the Event Policies before entering the space.

For more info on what to expect, free online educational resources, and links to related events, see the official Rope Bite group on Fetlife.

About your hosts:

@RachelKi (she/her) is a rope switch and aerial artist who has performed and presented at events across North America.

@knotsari (they/them) is a designer, educator, and SM enthusiast who shows up to share ways of connecting with, supporting, and challenging each other.

SCHEDULE:

We typically do intros at around 7:15 and then provide demonstrations and advice until ~9:00pm. Throughout, you're welcome to learn from our demos, practice your own stuff, peruse the gallery and library, socialize, and otherwise hang around - do what you feel!

ACCESS:

This event will be at A.B.O. Comix, at 2520 Telegraph Ave in Oakland. A.B.O. is a collective of creators and activists who work to amplify the voices of LGBTQ prisoners through art. They’re radical; support them! The space is wheelchair accessible, but the bathroom can be difficult to access and is occasionally out of commission. Consider going before you show up, and feel free to reach out to your hosts with any questions.

This event is completely free and not ticketed. If you can afford to do so, please donate to the event, support the venue, or purchase some of the art featured in the space! We are volunteer-run, and A.B.O. lets us use their space for free, so please help make it worth their while in whatever way you can!
