Workshop Description:


Welcome to Handling Handles – a unique Shibari class that blends the art of rope with authentic connection and intentional exploration. This experience goes beyond technique to cultivate a space where fun, consent, and curiosity thrive.


In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn how to create, adjust, and use rope handles on the body with care and intention. These handles offer opportunities for enhanced control, communication, and creativity in your rope practice—whether you’re tying, being tied, or switching roles.

• A practical guide to placing and using rope handles for comfort, connection, and engagement

• Techniques suitable for all experience levels (newbies welcome!)

• Authentic Relating Games to deepen presence, consent, and trust

• Choose-your-own-adventure style learning – move at your own pace and comfort

• Emphasis on safety, communication, and embodied exploration



Jam 9:30 PM – 11:30 PM

Jam Session with Guided Support:

• Explore what you’ve learned in a fully supportive space

• One-on-one guidance available throughout the night

• A cozy, connective environment where curiosity and expression are honored

• Opportunities to connect with others or deepen with a partner


Dress Code:

Come in what makes you feel comfortable, sexy, or expressive.

All styles and identities are welcome—think cozy, flowy, lingerie, rope-ready, or bold self-expression. There is no “right” way to show up.


Who This Is For:

• Singles, couples, throuples, polycules—all dynamics welcome

• Curious beginners, seasoned riggers, sensual explorers

• Anyone wanting to deepen their eros intelligence and authentic connection

This isn’t just about rope—it’s about transformation. You’ll leave with:

• Deeper awareness of your own desires

• Tools for creating authentic, connective experiences in intimacy
