Intro to Rope: Shibari 101 for Couples (Denver!)

In this class participants will learn how to use rope for fun and sexy play! Basic safety and consent will be covered as well as knots and ties that can be used to restrain a partner. Participants will also learn a chest and body harness that can be worn as a sexy accessory in or out of the bedroom! Dress comfortably in form fitting clothing (like for a yoga class) and bring a water bottle and a yoga mat as we will be working on the floor.

Everyone Is Welcome! People of all genders, orientations, ages (18 and older) and abilities are encouraged to come. A “couple” is defined as a pair of people – friends make great workshop buddies!

All rope & safety scissors are 20% off at Awakening for workshop attendees.

Please note: this is NOT a suspension class, we will be doing "floor" ties only. The skills learned in the class will help create a strong foundation for later study of suspension and more advanced rope work if desired.

Required Supplies:One 25’ - 32’ length of cotton or nylon rope and safety scissors, longer rope is helpful for larger bodies and more elaborate ties. Please also bring a yoga may and water bottle!

Registration and shopping at 5:30, we will lock the doors and begin the workshop promptly at 6PM, no late arrivals permitted!

$60 per couple - each ticket admits two.

Our instructor is coming down from Fort Collins to teach a class in Denver, and we will have a set rechedule date of Feb. 1st! If she cannot make it due to snow or road conditions, your tickets will automatically roll over to Feb. 1st, so please keep that in mind and on your calendar just in case.
