Fundamentals of Consensual Rope Bondage
– An introduction to Erotic Rope Restraint –
The Conservatory, Portland, Oregon
“People
who participate in bondage and dominance/submission play may be happier
and less anxious than those with more conventional sexual tastes.”
-Findings of a recent scientific survey on sexuality
Many
loving and compassionate people find that bedroom play with consensual
rope bondage greatly enhances the excitement and satisfaction of their
intimate lives. Maybe you've been curious about the
thrill of restraining your partner or the allure of being tied up.
Maybe you've been yearning to explore the realm of rope bondage, but
you don't know where to start. Or, maybe you've experimented with rope
but were frustrated by not knowing how to go about creating the really
sensual and secure bondage you've imagined.
This
workshop is an introductory class that will show you everything you
need to know to begin enjoying consensual rope bondage. We'll cover
what you need to get started, safety, aligning expectations between
partners to create mutually satisfying bondage scenes, and more. But,
mostly this will be a hands-on workshop where you'll learn the five
fundamental rope techniques you need to create a wide variety of
bondage positions. There will be plenty of opportunities for willing rope bottoms to be tied in rope during the hands-on sections of the workshop. Single bottoms are encouraged to attend: we'll touch on many facets of bondage from the bottom's perspective, and workshops like this usually offer opportunities to meet some Tops that are interested in potential practice partners to help hone their new skills.
This
workshop is for consenting, open-minded people, ages 18 and over, of
any sexual orientation.
