Class/Workshop Description: Intro to Rope Bondage for Connection and Sensual Play

Intro to Rope Bondage for Connection and Sensual Play

Are you interested in rope but feel overwhelmed by all the knots and patterns? Worried about how to do bedroom rope bondage more safely? Join MxBliss for this intro level class designed to leverage what you already know so you can have an intimate and hot rope scene, today! In this class, we will cover three elements of connective and sensual rope and you'll see that it's not about the knots, but about about you and your partner.

Everyone is welcome (solos and self-tiers) but if you want to tie along, be sure to bring a partner, a yoga mat or blanket, 2 hanks of rope, safety shears/cutter, and a handkerchief or scarf. There is also an option to purchase a rope kit in ticketing that will have what you need to start your connective rope bondage journey.

You ticket price includes admission to K-Rave (Portland's kink- and sex- friendly rave), following the class. But don't just shake your ass to some of the best festival DJs in Portland! Do a scene in the couples and moresomes monitored playspace or watch an amazing shibari/rope bondage performances on the kink-friendly stage (at 10 and 11:30).
