Rope bondage always looks so fun, but it can sometimes seem intimidating. Restraint is a great way to create sexual energy. In this introductory class TomFoolery will show you a number of useful, easy and sexy ties and knots so you can launch into your own rope scenes. This class will be for anyone who wants to try out rope in the bedroom. Special emphasis will be given on how to use rope before and during sex.
There will be hands-on practice to show you step by step how to tie someone up. There will be a lot of one-on-one help provided. Also we'll cover rope selection, safety and all the things you will want to know to make your rope adventures successful. At the end of the class you will have basic rope skills and be able to start exploring on your own.
We will cover wrist ties, chest harnesses and a basic hog tie. If you bring your own rope, we suggest at least 2 pieces of 30 to 35 foot, 1/4 or 3/8 inch diameter rope. Also bring 2 pieces of 10 foot rope. It can be any kind you like, so long as it is soft to the touch, i.e. nylon, polyester. It is best if the rope bends without forming a ‘loop’. We will work in pairs, so please bring a partner.
*We encourage guests to bring their own rope however, we will have some rope to lend*
