<p>Summer is here, and there’s tons to talk about!</p>
<p>Rope in Seattle now has its own <a href="https://ropeinseattle.com">website</a>, with expanded content and a redesign. There’s even (one) color!</p>
<p>Seattle Rope Salon recently lost their lease and are no longer holding events, but there are tons of new rope events. I count 15 events for July, so you’ll need to scamper if you want to attend them all.</p>

<p>I’m excited to add a couple of new instructors to the <a href="https://ropeinseattle.com/whoswho.html">Who’s Who page</a>:</p>

<li><a href="https://magpiekink.com">Mz Magpie</a> teaches classes on rope bondage, sex toys, polyamory, and more. She and her partner also run a monthly BIPOC rope group.</li>
<li><a href="https://fetlife.com/users/2740113?sp=1">Provocations</a> is one of the most capable riggers in Seattle. He’s started teaching private lessons and if enough people ask him, perhaps he’ll start teaching public classes.</li>

Rope in Seattle: October 2022https://ropeinseattle.com/index.html#2022-09-28-risFeed2022-09-28T13:01:00Z
<p>Welcome to the October edition of Rope in Seattle, your curated guide to Seattle’s thriving rope bondage community.</p>
<p>You may have noticed that summer is fading fast, which means many outdoor events will be ending or moving indoors. Make sure to check the event listing for any last minute updates!</p>
<p>Interested in getting into suspension? It’s been a long time since Seattle had any good options for suspension classes, but 2023 is looking promising. Magpie Kink will be teaching Introduction to Suspension on 1/28 (tickets coming soon), Full Circle Kink will be teaching Uplines for Suspension in early 2023, and I’m aware of a couple of other classes that are in active development. More news soon…</p>

Rope in Seattle: November 2022https://ropeinseattle.com/index.html#2022-10-28-risFeed2022-10-28T13:01:00Z
<p>Welcome to the November edition of Rope in Seattle, your curated guide to Seattle’s thriving rope bondage community.</p>
<p>The good news is that the smoke is gone—the bad news is that all our outdoor events have either ended for the year or are figuring out new schedules and plans for the rainy season. Until things settle down, double-check the details on any event you’re interested in attending.</p>
<p>I’m seeing a lot of classes and events selling out: if you have your heart set on attending a particular event, I recommend getting your tickets early.</p>

Rope in Seattle: December of 2022https://ropeinseattle.com/index.html#2022-12-06-risFeed2022-12-06T13:01:00Z
<p>My apologies for the late December update!</p>
<p>We’re into the quiet season at the end of the year: there are no more classes in 2022 and a number of monthly events are skipping December. I’d encourage you to go to Shibari Nightfall, but it’s already sold out.</p>
<p>2023 looks great, however: Magpie Kink is teaching <a href="https://fetlife.com/events/1184335">Gateway to Suspension</a> in January and Shibari Shawn has a couple of exciting new classes in <a href="https://fetlife.com/events/1205053">February</a> and <a href="https://fetlife.com/events/1205058">March</a>.</p>

Rope in Seattle: March of 2023https://ropeinseattle.com/index.html#2023-02-22-risFeed2023-02-22T13:01:00Z
<p>Welcome to the March edition of Rope in Seattle!</p>
<p>It’s a good month for education, with five classes by four different instructors. The weekend of March 18 is particularly busy, with three separate classes.</p>
<p>We’re lucky to have so many good events to choose from, but that abundance has its own challenges: we are beginning to run out of venue capacity. Gallery Erato (my favorite venue for education) is now booking new classes 6 to 9 months in advance, with many classes selling out.</p>
<p>With that in mind, Full Circle Kink is experimenting with a new venue: we’ll be teaching <a href="https://forbiddentickets.com/events/full-circle-kink-llc/2023-03-19-bondage-for-beginners">Bondage for Beginners</a> on March 19 at Paigeosity Art in Redmond. If that experiment goes well, I hope to see regular classes there, taught by a number of instructors.</p>
<p>Rope in Seattle is updated weekly and is available via the <a href="https://ropeinseattle.com">free web</a>, <a href="https://ropeinseattle.substack.com">email</a>, <a href="https://ropeinseattle.com/feed.atom">RSS</a>, and <a href="https://ropeinseattle.com/calendar/index.html">Google Calendar</a>.</p>

Rope in Seattle: April of 2023https://ropeinseattle.com/index.html#2023-04-04-risFeed2023-04-04T13:01:00Z
<p>Welcome to the April edition of Rope in Seattle!</p>
<p>Let’s start with some organizational news: you may have noticed that this month’s update comes from Meerkat Agenda, not Tornus. What’s up with that?</p>
<p><a href="https://meerkatagenda.com">Meerkat Agenda</a> is a new organization whose mission is to help kink communities live up to their full potential. Tornus will be running the organization with help from Dr Smartypants and others, and we’ll be rolling out a couple of new projects later in 2023. Rope in Seattle will remain unchanged.</p>
<p>There isn’t much rope news this month: the <a href="https://www.seattleerotic.org">Seattle Erotic Art Festival</a> is in April, and many of the usual suspects are busy organizing or performing at the festival. We aren’t aware of any formal classes worth recommending in April, but there are plenty of good events that have an educational component including <a href="https://fetlife.com/events/1256660">Knotty Knots</a>, <a href="https://fetlife.com/events/1265434">SubSpace Rope Lab</a>, <a href="https://fetlife.com/events/1265430">Winter Rope Jam</a>, and <a href="https://seattleleather.org/events-lite/rope-lab/">Rope Lab: Seattle</a>.</p>

Rope in Seattle: June of 2023https://ropeinseattle.com/index.html#2023-05-31-risFeed2023-05-31T13:01:00Z
<p>Welcome to the June edition of Rope in Seattle!</p>
<p>As summer settles in, Seattle’s bondage scene is moving outdoors. Outdoor Rope Group is hopping at Gas Works every Wednesday, and Hitchin’ Bitches has moved to Denny Blaine Park for the summer. Tons of Seattle folks went to <a href="https://narix.org">NARIX</a> and <a href="https://ropecraft.net">Ropecraft</a> in May, so expect to see lots of cool new ties and techniques at your local dungeon (or park).</p>
<p>Bondage education tends to slow down during the summer, but Shibari Shawn and Full Circle Kink are both teaching their monthly class series.</p>
<p>Rope in Seattle is updated weekly and is available via the <a href="https://ropeinseattle.com">free web</a>, <a href="https://ropeinseattle.substack.com">email</a>, <a href="https://ropeinseattle.com/feed.atom">RSS</a>, and <a href="https://ropeinseattle.com/calendar/index.html">Google Calendar</a>.</p>

Rope in Seattle: September of 2023https://ropeinseattle.com/index.html#2023-08-24-risFeed2023-08-24T13:01:00Z
<p>Welcome to the September edition of Rope in Seattle!</p>
<p>This edition of Rope in Seattle begins with some sad news: the Seattle Parks Department has asked the Outdoor Rope Group to curtail its activities. The 8/30 ORG will be ground rope only and ORG events in September and October have been canceled. ORG is a fantastic event and a pillar of the Seattle rope community, and we’re hopeful that the organizers will find a way to continue the magic.</p>
<p>For now, things are quiet on the rope front: September has relatively few classes and events. But a number of folks are hard at work planning exciting new events and we look forward to listing those events as soon as they’re ready.</p>
<p>Rope in Seattle is updated weekly and is available via the <a href="https://ropeinseattle.com">free web</a>, <a href="https://ropeinseattle.substack.com">email</a>, <a href="https://ropeinseattle.com/feed.atom">RSS</a>, and <a href="https://www.ropeinseattle.com/calendar/index.html">Google Calendar</a>.</p>

Rope in Seattle: January of 2024https://ropeinseattle.com/index.html#2024-01-01-risFeed2024-01-01T13:01:00Z
<p>Happy New Year! We have tons of news this month, so let’s get started.</p>
<p>We’re excited to announce <a href="https://meerkatagenda.com/kems/">KEMS</a> (Kink Education Minimum Standards), a project we’ve been working on for the last year with help from many instructors and organizations. KEMS is a new set of ethical standards for kink instructors that includes a code of conduct and a requirement to publicly disclose certain types of information. Most of Seattle’s rope instructors have adopted KEMS—you can see who’s adopted it on our <a href="https://www.ropeinseattle.com/directory/index.html">directory of instructors</a>.</p>
<p>It’s great to see that Seattle now has three regular bondage class series, with a fourth on the way:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://fullcirclekink.com">Full Circle Kink’s</a> long-standing monthly class series at Gallery Erato.</li>
<li><a href="https://www.houseofknotty.com">Shibari Shawn</a> will be teaching his <a href="https://www.houseofknotty.com/classes">6 class series</a> monthly starting in January.</li>
<li><a href="https://subspaceseattle.com/sessions/new">SubSpace</a> has started a new series of <a href="https://subspaceseattle.com/events/59008">beginner classes</a>.</li>
<li><a href="https://fullcirclekink.com">Full Circle Kink</a> will soon be rolling out their new Arc curriculum, an extensive cohort-based program that will go from introductory rope through intermediate-level suspension.</li>
</ul>
<p>Rope Lab Seattle is undergoing some changes, but we’re delighted to hear that Shibari Shawn will be running it. We’re looking forward to hearing more details about future plans soon.</p>
<p>Start doing your warmups! We have 10 (count them, 10) bondage classes coming up in the next 6 weeks, as well as a full roster of parties, rope jams, and munches.</p>

Rope in Seattle: March of 2024https://ropeinseattle.com/index.html#2024-02-29-risFeed2024-02-29T13:01:00Z
<p>March is another good month for rope in Seattle, with tons of fun events and plenty of classes for all skill levels.</p>
<p>On the education front, two of the usual suspects have classes from their regular monthly series in March:</p>
<ul>
<li>On Saturday 3/16, Shibari Shawn is teaching <a href="https://www.houseofknotty.com/sensual">Sensual Rope Bondage</a>, one of 6 classes in his basic bondage series. Shawn’s a great instructor and is particularly good at bringing sensual energy to rope.</li>
<li>On Saturday 3/9, Full Circle Kink is teaching <a href="https://www.strangertickets.com/events/140286661/bondage-for-immobilization">Bondage for Immobilization</a>, part of their four class beginners series. Immobilization is a fun class with some useful ties that tend not to get taught in most shibari classes.</li>
</ul>
<p>The last <a href="https://fetlife.com/events/1418574">Winter Rope Jam</a> of the year is on Tuesday 3/12. This is a fantastic event and a great way to meet people and get connected to other bondage enthusiasts.</p>
<p>Rope in Seattle is updated weekly and is available via the <a href="https://ropeinseattle.com">free web</a>, <a href="https://ropeinseattle.substack.com">email</a>, <a href="https://ropeinseattle.com/feed.atom">RSS</a>, and <a href="https://www.ropeinseattle.com/calendar/index.html">Google Calendar</a>.</p>
