March RING (Rope Interest Group Nashville)

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! All events are 18+ and you must provide some form of ID for age verification.

Info: 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.

Info: Trying to figure out left from right and top from bottom can sometimes feel impossible through the course of a tie or scene, let alone being able to pinpoint the feeling that part of the body has. In this class, we will be tackling body awareness and how to communicate feelings, locations, and needs as a bottom. We will review sensation words to discover what they mean to us, body-space awareness, and run through various drills to learn your body and assist your Top in understanding what is going on in order to act accordingly. Bottoms who do not have a top are encouraged to self-tie and/or audit the class! (See required skills for class in Fetlife post)
