What is it with Rope! Why does it have such allure? Why does it hold such a special spot in the heart of the kink-identified and mainstream lover alike?


Before you begin learning the specifics about knots and ties, it is important to remember that rope bondage is so much more than just tying. During a bondage session, there is a power exchange between the person being tied and the person tying. This can be an intense emotional experience which requires that you keep in mind certain considerations.

In these lessons you will learn the basics.


Ms_Kitten would like to invite you to something completely different. Part sensation play, part ropey things and part just bloody good fun between consenting adults, you are invited to "A Curious Approach to Rope’. No historical pretense or lineage is implied. 


This Rope workshop involves awesome stuff like:

 • Exactly how to do negotiation, discussion, consent, and all those other verbal / emotional things that makes play so much more amazing.

 • Handling a body .. Handling a rope and handling yourself 

 • Occasional glances in the direction of tantra, breathing techniques, and bondage as a spiritual / meditative practice. (But not too much; this workshop only scores 1 out of 10 on the South African Hippy Scale).

 • How to 'read' your partner. (Or, said differently: How to take your partner to some deeply amazing places).

 • Some practical stuff, like knots, and how to (lovingly) hurt the person you are roping.


Topics we will cover:


• how to improve selfcare and then aftercare

• Safety considerations

• a harness that can be used in sensual rope sessions 

• Basic knots

• Single column ties

• Double column ties

• being present and showing up with intent

• physical condition and health 

•  how to make rope more sensual 


This workshop is for pairs of people. You need to find someone you're comfortable exploring this territory with, and invite them. They can be your lover, your friend, your play-partner... The important thing is that you've both read this workshop description, and you both consent. Oh, and both of you will need enthusiasm and your own body as a sacrifice. Singles are welcome but pls let me know so i can arrange enough experienced tops to help.
