April RING: In "tension" al Rope” (& 101 in the classroom space)

This session provides some tips for cleaner, tighter, and more purposeful rope. Whether you’re looking to sharpen your floor work or transition to more complex ties you’ll learn how to build gradual tension, enhance structure, and engage your body position. Utilizing friction and directionality, you will learn how to prevent ties from shifting or collapsing under load, techniques for maintaining "active" lines that feel secure and supportive, and understanding the dialogue between the rope and the person being tied to create a seamless, intentional experience.

This class is for folks with some rope experience who are comfortable with basic safety, consent-minded, and awareness of common rope terms.

In the classroom we will have our monthly Rope Basics Class, covering all the fundamental aspects on rope bondage!We've updated our presentation to include more material and teach a bit more to get you started on your rope journey. You'll learn a bit about the history of rope, how to choose the rope that's right for you, and what we like to discuss before tying with someone. You'll also learn a single column tie, how to extend rope, and frictions to complete your ties! Even if you've been to the Basics before, this might be a great refresher! If you need rope we have it to use and don't worry if you don't have a tying partner! We have extra limbs via furniture.

We are a local rope group and non-profit in Nashville, Tennessee, focusing on non-dogmatic practices and equitable access to education. RING is intended to help foster and support learning and growth in rope for all experience levels. The group's primary focus is on knowledge sharing from one member to another to help people grow in their abilities with rope. Everyone’s rope journey is their own, and our facilitators pride themselves on assisting everyone as an individual rather than conforming to a specific style.Feel free to come and join us anytime; we do not require a specific membership and welcome rope enthusiasts from the Southeast and beyond!
