SUMMARY:More Than Knots: Foundational Series
DESCRIPTION:This 3-part series is designed for people who are new to rope bondage. Our instructors will teach foundational binding components and frictions\, and show how to put them together to make creative\, playful shapes. Those tying will develop skills in moving rope and bodies with confidence\, fluidity\, and intention. Those being tied will learn about risk-aware tying practices\, practice communicating preferences in rope\, and build some body awareness. Upon completing this series\, attendees will possess basic safety principles and negotiation skills\, plus be capable of learning and following along to harnesses/patterns in future learning environments.​

SUMMARY:Sacrificial Offerings (taught by Fuoco)
DESCRIPTION:This 2-day intensive explores the collaboration between bottom and rigger\, with an emphasis on the ways that bottoms contribute to rope scenes in subtle and not so subtle ways. In this workshop we aim to trouble the binary of “active” and “passive” bottoming\, and instead explore the numerous offerings that live on the spectrum within and between these two modes. \nThis workshop is appropriate for tying partners who are comfortable with suspensions but unsure of how to improvise or break away from structured sequences. This workshop is also great for tying pairs who want to explore different bottoming styles and the tying styles that emerge in response. \nTying pairs should have at least one suspension-worthy upper body harness that they know well and feel confident in (preferably arms-in). Bottoms should be at least intellectually aware of the difference between circulation restriction and nerve compression\, and feel comfortable communicating through stress. Tops should feel confident and quick in their upline lock offs and descents. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Gravity and Grounding: Body Manipulation with Rope
DESCRIPTION:How do you move your partner without verbal commands? How do you create flow from one position to the next? This class will teach partners how to use rope to move together with less risk of falling or other accidents. Pairs will learn sequences that get the body from standing positions down to the ground and back up again. The class covers anatomy fundamentals for moving bodies of all sizes and shapes in rope and shares the techniques needed to do so efficiently. This class is appropriate for most skill levels in rope. Tickets will be sold in tying pairs.

SUMMARY:Bondage for Beginners at Gallery Erato
DESCRIPTION:Interested in adding some bondage to your life but not sure where to start? This fun and accessible introductory class will introduce you to the basics of kink and rope bondage. By the time you’re done you’ll have all the skills you need to safely and confidently start exploring bondage on your own. \nThis is a bondage class rather than a knots class\, so our focus is on teaching a small number of versatile techniques that you can use in all kinds of ways. All the ties in the class are easy to learn and can be used for many different play styles. \nThe point of bondage is to connect with your partner\, so we’ll also cover fundamental kink concepts like consent\, negotiation\, and aftercare. To help you put it all together\, we’ll have fun demos of the techniques in action\, along with suggestions for how to figure out what kind of kink works best for you. \nSingle students are welcome\, but this class is most fun if you take it with a partner. We’ll provide practice rope if you don’t have your own. Class handouts will be provided\, with digital access after the class. \nImportant details: \n• Pay-what-you-can scholarships\, funded by 4Culture\, are available for all Pan Eros Foundation workshops. •If you need financial assistance\, please email Leah at education@pan-eros.org\n• All sexes\, genders\, races\, ethnicities\, sexual orientations\, relationship orientations\, bodies\, body types\, ability levels welcome and celebrated.\n• No late entry will be allowed due to the nature of this workshop. Doors will be locked at 10 minutes after the start time.\n• Open to all 18+\n• Water available. Please bring your own bottle or cup.\n• Attendance is limited to 24 people.\n• Questions may be directed to: education@pan-eros.org or dreamingwithesjay@gmail.com

SUMMARY:Strappado
DESCRIPTION:This rope workshop will be a hand-on class with active participation and rope tying. \nFirst\, we will analyze the various parts of a strappado position and list the various decisions and choices we make.  For example\, we will look at various places to start\, accommodations for flexibility\, and decorative diamond shapes. \nAfter that\, we will move into 40 minute breakout sessions based on skill level for a tie along with step by step instructions. \n​​Prerequisites: None. This class is designed for all levels including new beginners. The ability to tie a “single column tie” is not required but will help you. \nRequirements:  at least 2 hanks of rope at 20-30+ft in length.

SUMMARY:Beginner Shibari
DESCRIPTION:Shibari is the Japanese-inspired practice of aesthetic rope bondage. In this foundational session\, students will learn fundamental ties and techniques to begin their rope journey. Though fundamental\, these techniques can be combined in uncountable ways to produce elaborate shapes and scenarios. Besides learning technical skills\, we will focus on rope bondage as a movement and acrobatic art\, with emphasis on flow\, aesthetics\, and partner connection. This class is appropriate for students that wish to learn shibari as a performing art\, or as a private practice. Attendees can attend solo or as a couple. \nHosted out of a circus school\, this class is ideal for folks that want to explore shibari in a non-kink environment.

SUMMARY:Merman Tie
DESCRIPTION:This rope workshop will be a hand-on class with active participation and rope tying. \nWe will start by establishing aesthetic guidelines and principles for our ties as an overarching theme of the intermediate series. We will focus on a) modular tying\, b) intentionality\, c) nawajiri management\, and d) philosophy of minimalism\, model-centric photography\, and wabi-sabi aesthetics. \nThe Merman class will include explicit instruction on: \n\n\nManaging different types of reverse tensions \n\n\nManaging frictions \n\n\nManaging intentional bulk of a stem \n\n\nAdding additional rope for an over-tied aesthetic of wabi-sabi (asymmetrical but balanced). \n\n\nPrerequisites: Single column\, experience with basic chest harness\, basic understandings of tension and rope placement. \nRequirements:  at least 10 hanks of rope at 20-30+ft in length

SUMMARY:Ascent In Rope: Partials Series
DESCRIPTION:This 3-part series is designed for tying pairs who are experienced in floor rope and wish to escalate their skills by playing with gravity. Those tying will learn how to attach\, use\, and manage one or more uplines. Those being tied will learn to identify red flags in upline management\, practice bottoming skills\, and develop a better understanding of their body. Upon completing this series\, attendees will be prepared to play with simple partial suspension shapes. \nIn order to benefit from this class\, those tying should be able to confidently tie a non-collapsing single column and double column\, use simple frictions like munters and half-hitches\, and learn harnesses through demonstration. Those being tied should be comfortable voicing their rope style preferences and communicating their physical and emotional experiences while in rope. \nThese classes are crafted for partnered learning; attendees need to sign up in pairs. All tying pairs must commit to all classes in the series. \nWe encourage those who have completed the Techniques in Tying curriculum to register. Prerequisites are listed below for those who have not attended these series.

SUMMARY:RopeLab @_the_apartment
DESCRIPTION:Come hang with us at Rope Lab! This is a casual exploration into the basics of shibari and eastern rope bondage. Each session we will begin by covering the basic single column tie which is the foundation of all that we do\, and then we will explore other ties that build on that. \nDoors open at 6:30 and class will begin at 7:00 sharp. Please be sure to be on time. \nPlease come in comfortable clothes that allow for a wide range of movement. Two or three pieces of 6mm rope 24-30 ft in length will be used in each session. Mats are provided\, but a blanket is nice to place over them.\nThe ties we will focus on are best done with natural fiber rope. Jute or hemp are the preferred options.\nWe have loaner rope if you need to borrow and will usually have some on hand for sale should you want to take some home to practice.
