OMG! Coconut Rope? Really? Tell us more!
We have another special demonstration this month, the first time weve had an introduction to and demonstration of coconut rope tying techniques for sensuous ground tie experiences. This will be led by Austin and Carol.
This Month: Fundamentals 101 (Part 1)
Were diving deeper into the building blocks of a solid practice. Whether youre looking to refine your technique or starting from scratch, were covering:
The Essentials:Safety & Consent (the foundation of every tie).
The Mechanics:Mastering reverse tensions, half hitches and munter hitches
The Structure:Hip harnesses, in-line cuffs, leg ties, and more!
Pro-Tip:Teaching is the best way to learn. If youve finished the Fundamentals series, come back as an assistant! Its a great way to solidify your own muscle memory while giving back to the community
Want to practice with someone?
Dont worry about coming solo! To make meeting new practice partners easier, well have color-coded wristbands at the door:
Black:Tops
Purple:Bottoms
Orange:Switches
Note: These signify your preference for the day and a desire to meet peoplethey are not an automatic "yes" to any tie. These just help the conversation get started.
