This full-day workshop aims to equip you with the essential skills and knowledge to practice safe sane and consensual kinbaku. Our goal is to help you create a safe and shared experience that will empower you to continue applying what you’ve learned once you return home.

The gote is a classic element of traditional Japanese bondage known as kinbaku. Since RopeMarks adheres to and teaches this tradition we prioritize imparting the techniques and knowledge required for tying your model’s arms behind their back in the gote style. There’s no single “correct” gote; the best one is the one that suits your model. We believe almost everyone can be comfortable in a gote-based tie.

During this workshop you’ll be tying on a carabiner/ring. There are various ways to tie off uplines but which method do you choose and when? We will guide you through several exercises to help you understand these choices.

Next we’ll apply the knowledge of the gote and uplines to three floor ties progressively making them more intricate. Along the way we’ll introduce you to a variety of smaller ties for added fun.

By the end of this workshop both riggers and rope models will have advanced to a solid beginner/intermediate skill level.
