• Rope for Connection

    Posted by sirsdarling on at

    Sir and I attended a Sunday workshop called “rope for connection”. This class focused on the single column knot and using rope for intimacy. The teacher demonstrated how to tie it around the wrist then we got to try it. Not as easy as it seemed but a connecting experience to learn these things together. My sadist Sir is into bondage and has used rope however we still consider ourselves new to rope. Sir tied the knot around my wrist and just focused on staying close to me and wrapping the rope around me. Always keeping tension. The teacher had us both put on blindfolds. I liked when I could feel Sir’s warm against me, his touch, and let go. The room had others in it so it was a little scary for me to loose any kind of touch with him. These exercises turned out to be a wonderful lesson in connection. It was not about the intricate tying or what it looked like: it was about our connection. No pressure. I encourage you to seek out workshops and step out there. It really is not in the shadows any more. It is what you make of it. The instructor is Dr. Who on fetlife.

    Sirs Darling, I attended a similar class back in September. The instructor had partners tie each other for with rope and had each side discribe the feelings and connection. Then you used invisible rope to do the same tie. The invisible rope made the “tie” all about the connection. People in the class who were very technical had a much harder time with this than newer people. It was very interesting. The class I took was called Beyond the Rope, I too would encourage people to take a class like this, especially if they like rope.

    Brilliant- Invisable rope…must try that one. thanks for sharing that. I am curious what others think about this or even how scary it is to venture out?

    That sounds very interesting. Thank you for sharing!

    I’d love to be able to attend some classes like these but they are really few and far between in our neck of the woods. My dh loves knots and rope but does very little with it in the bedroom aside from very basic bondage. I wonder if he’d be interested in a ropes class…

    Strider was a boy scout and artsy…so he was able to watch vids and make it happen. He took a pic and showed me once…it was truly breath-taking. The “invisible rope” is a very interesting and cool concept. I wish they had more classes like that around here or a community where we can feel comfy. We’re not so much into the public exposure/sex though, but it would be nice to be with non-judgy like-minded folks.

    When we attended it was at a hotel conference room, very small, not a lot of people. Everyone was kind and just did there own thing. No judging. What amazed me was that a few of the woman took off their shirts and showed boobs. For this small town girl, kinky or not, it was still something i had to get comfortable with. The amazing thing is that no one seemed to blink an eye and they were with their Dom or partner so no peeping going on. Everyone was absorbed into the one they were with.
