SUMMARY:Bootblacking In & Out of Scene - RESCHEDULED
DESCRIPTION:Bootblacking refers to the process of cleaning and caring for leather gear\, and is both a necessary and important step in gear maintenance. Despite the many tools in a bootblack’s kit\, leather care is not as complicated as some folks may think. So\, how do we do it? And furthermore\, how do we make it sexy? \n\n\n\nThe first portion of this workshop is hands-on\, where we will cover the essentials needed to care for your leather (be it boots\, jacket\, vest\, or fanny pack). Bring your leather in need of attention and learn everything you need to keep it in tip top shape\, at least until the next time you get it dirty.  \n\n\n\nThe second portion will cover ways to bring bootblacking and leather care into a scene\, and include a live demo. \n\n\n\n\nRecommended materials:\n\n\n\n\nCleanser (saddle soap\, glycerin soap\, liquid castile soap); Conditioner (Huberd’s\, leather balm); Toothbrushes; Rags \n\n\n\n\nOptional:\n\n\n\n\nBuffing brush; Dauber brush; Wax polish (black or neutral) \n\n\n\nDetails\n\n\n\n\nDate and Time: October 9th\, 6.30pm\n\n\n\nDoors open 30min prior to the event\n\n\n\nDuration: Approximately 2.5h\n\n\n\nFee: $35/person (low barrier option available at the door)\n\n\n\nPrerequisites: None\n\n\n\nMaterial to bring: See above.

SUMMARY:All Levels Rope
DESCRIPTION:The Tuesday All Level runs on an 8-week rotation. At the start of each rotation we introduce a new harness structure. Over the subsequent 7 weeks we then approach that structure from multiple different directions and purposes\, both technical and interpersonal. How can we break down and alter the harness to make it work in certain ways? Can we tie it while moving/dancing/sitting/playfighting? How does it behave in suspension? How can we make it ornate\, or comfortable\, or robust? We also build skills and habits to keep the focus on the interaction between humans rather than the pattern. People approach rope from a myriad different directions\, motivations\, and interests\, so our classes should reflect that diversity of approach.  \n\n\n\nThe order of classes may change depending on the pace and needs of participants. See the curriculum of our rope track \n\n\n\n\nHarness Intro\n\n\n\nDeeper Dive/Different Versions/Magic Tips and Tricks\n\n\n\nTying with Movement/Ranboo\n\n\n\nPartial/Static Suspension (Upline Review)**\n\n\n\nInterview Metaphor\n\n\n\nSuspension with Transition Options (Upline Special Considerations)**\n\n\n\nFloorwork\n\n\n\nChallenges! \n\n\n\n\nAll Level classes are designed for partner work\, though you are welcome to attend solo and absorb information.  \n\n\n\nA brief note on suspension: \n\n\n\nYou don’t have to suspend in these classes! It’s pretty common that newer people choose not to suspend on their first ‘rotation’ through the All Levels class. Work at the pace that suits you\, make sure you feel comfortable with what you are doing\, and we will support you.Please note: Anyone who plans to suspend should attend the appropriate Uplines Friday class. We will briefly review uplines and/or cover special considerations for uplines for a particular tie\, but we will not teach uplines directly.  \n\n\n\nLoaner ropes are available. NO SUSPENSION with loaner ropes. \n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFineprint\n\n\n\n\nDate and Time: Every Tuesday\, 6.30pm – 9pm\n\n\n\nDuration: 2.5h\n\n\n\nFee: $35/person (member discounts available)\n\n\n\nPrerequisites: Basic understanding of knots and frictions\, safety and consent\, as well as movement and communication (Complete Intro to rope cycle).\n\n\n\nMaterial to bring: Bring your own ropes (we have loaner ropes available if you forget yours)\n\n\n\nFor individuals or pairs: Individuals will definitely learn something but the course is designed for pairs. \n\n\n\n\nPlease have a look at our policies and safety rules. \n\n\n\nStudio Allegory is on the ground floor and there are no steps anywhere in the space.

SUMMARY:Orientation - For Newcomers to Kink
DESCRIPTION:New to kink and don’t know where to start? Interested in going to events but you don’t know how to behave\, what to wear\, what to do? You are definitely not alone and going to your first kink event can be quite intimidating. This barrier free newcomer orientation helps people who are brand new to take their first steps into the fascinating world of kink. \nWhat to expect\nPart 1 — The first part is a conversation with the participants about the world of kink: Etiquette online and offline\, expectations\, dress codes at events\, possibilities and some recommendations\, especially for single folks. \nPart 2 —We go through a few of the most common kinks: bondage\, impact\, Dominance/submission\, fetishes\, etc. Participants can see how it feels to hold a flogger or be tied up. \nPart 3 — The last part is all about the open questions of the participants: Where to go from here? What to do with this or that fantasy? How to find someone to play with? And many more questions answered.

SUMMARY:Playfighting
DESCRIPTION:Play fighting is a completely different way of engaging with other people. The way we move\, think\, and relate to our environment changes in this type of interaction. This group activity lets participants challenge each other for a play fight. All constellations are welcome.  \n\n\n\nIn a safe environment\, participants can challenge themselves and each other to fight with each other in a playful and joyful way. Not winning but experiencing is the focus of this monthly event.

SUMMARY:Community Discussion - Disability and Kink
DESCRIPTION:Accessibility in kink: A guided conversation and Q&A\n\n\n\nHow can we more safely and enjoyably navigate disability when practicing kink? How can we tune in to our partners’ specific needs and boundaries? How can we assume less\, and instead meet the uniqueness of others with a healthy\, engaged\, and respectful curiosity? \n\n\n\nKink is for everyone\, and no disability or even combination of complex disabilities needs to be the absolute end of our journeys exploring our bodies\, our minds\, and the full rainbow of sensations and experiences available to us. Disability enters all of our lives at some point; so long as we can meet its demands to become more creative lateral thinkers\, we can live just as vibrantly as ever. \n\n\n\nThis discussion will be primarily focused around disability\, but remember\, accessibility is for everyone! “Able-bodied” folks are highly encouraged to join us and participate\, I promise that you will learn and benefit as much as anyone else. \n\n\n\nMeet our guest speaker for this event: \n\n\n\nShiphrah is a queer trans settler\, multicultural grandchild of holocaust survivors\, and ambulatory wheelchair user who has been enthusiastically practicing kink for 15 years. She lives with multiple intersecting complex chronic disabilities defined by unpredictability\, frequently oscillating between being visibly and invisibly disabled.

SUMMARY:All Levels Rope
DESCRIPTION:The Tuesday All Level runs on an 8-week rotation. At the start of each rotation we introduce a new harness structure. Over the subsequent 7 weeks we then approach that structure from multiple different directions and purposes\, both technical and interpersonal. How can we break down and alter the harness to make it work in certain ways? Can we tie it while moving/dancing/sitting/playfighting? How does it behave in suspension? How can we make it ornate\, or comfortable\, or robust? We also build skills and habits to keep the focus on the interaction between humans rather than the pattern. People approach rope from a myriad different directions\, motivations\, and interests\, so our classes should reflect that diversity of approach.  \n\n\n\nThe order of classes may change depending on the pace and needs of participants. See the curriculum of our rope track \n\n\n\n\nHarness Intro\n\n\n\nDeeper Dive/Different Versions/Magic Tips and Tricks\n\n\n\nTying with Movement/Ranboo\n\n\n\nPartial/Static Suspension (Upline Review)**\n\n\n\nInterview Metaphor\n\n\n\nSuspension with Transition Options (Upline Special Considerations)**\n\n\n\nFloorwork\n\n\n\nChallenges! \n\n\n\n\nAll Level classes are designed for partner work\, though you are welcome to attend solo and absorb information.  \n\n\n\nA brief note on suspension: \n\n\n\nYou don’t have to suspend in these classes!

Work at the pace that suits you\, make sure you feel comfortable with what you are doing\, and we will support you.Please note: Anyone who plans to suspend should attend the appropriate Uplines Friday class. We will briefly review uplines and/or cover special considerations for uplines for a particular tie\, but we will not teach uplines directly.  \n\n\n\nLoaner ropes are available. NO SUSPENSION with loaner ropes. \n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFineprint\n\n\n\n\nDate and Time: Every Tuesday\, 6.30pm – 9pm\n\n\n\nDuration: 2.5h\n\n\n\nFee: $35/person (member discounts available)\n\n\n\nPrerequisites: Basic understanding of knots and frictions\, safety and consent\, as well as movement and communication (Complete Intro to rope cycle).\n\n\n\nMaterial to bring: Bring your own ropes (we have loaner ropes available if you forget yours)\n\n\n\nFor individuals or pairs: Individuals will definitely learn something but the course is designed for pairs. \n\n\n\n\nPlease have a look at our policies and safety rules. \n\n\n\nStudio Allegory is on the ground floor and there are no steps anywhere in the space.

SUMMARY:Massage as service
DESCRIPTION:A guided workshop \n\n\n\n\n\nAre you a service-oriented individual looking to expand your skills\, or a D-type interested in learning aftercare for your S-type?  \n\n\n\nThis workshop begins with a brief discussion on how massage can be connective and co-regulating\, as well as an overview of basic body mechanics.

SUMMARY:All Levels Rope
DESCRIPTION:The Tuesday All Level runs on an 8-week rotation. At the start of each rotation we introduce a new harness structure. Over the subsequent 7 weeks we then approach that structure from multiple different directions and purposes\, both technical and interpersonal. How can we break down and alter the harness to make it work in certain ways? Can we tie it while moving/dancing/sitting/playfighting? How does it behave in suspension? How can we make it ornate\, or comfortable\, or robust? We also build skills and habits to keep the focus on the interaction between humans rather than the pattern. People approach rope from a myriad different directions\, motivations\, and interests\, so our classes should reflect that diversity of approach.  \n\n\n\nThe order of classes may change depending on the pace and needs of participants. See the curriculum of our rope track \n\n\n\n\nHarness Intro\n\n\n\nDeeper Dive/Different Versions/Magic Tips and Tricks\n\n\n\nTying with Movement/Ranboo\n\n\n\nPartial/Static Suspension (Upline Review)**\n\n\n\nInterview Metaphor\n\n\n\nSuspension with Transition Options (Upline Special Considerations)**\n\n\n\nFloorwork\n\n\n\nChallenges! \n\n\n\n\nAll Level classes are designed for partner work\, though you are welcome to attend solo and absorb information.  \n\n\n\nA brief note on suspension: \n\n\n\nYou don’t have to suspend in these classes!

SUMMARY:Playfighting
DESCRIPTION:Play fighting is a completely different way of engaging with other people. The way we move\, think\, and relate to our environment changes in this type of interaction. This group activity lets participants challenge each other for a play fight. All constellations are welcome.  \n\n\n\nIn a safe environment\, participants can challenge themselves and each other to fight with each other in a playful and joyful way. Not winning but experiencing is the focus of this monthly event.

SUMMARY:All Levels Rope
DESCRIPTION:The Tuesday All Level runs on an 8-week rotation. At the start of each rotation we introduce a new harness structure. Over the subsequent 7 weeks we then approach that structure from multiple different directions and purposes\, both technical and interpersonal. How can we break down and alter the harness to make it work in certain ways? Can we tie it while moving/dancing/sitting/playfighting? How does it behave in suspension? How can we make it ornate\, or comfortable\, or robust? We also build skills and habits to keep the focus on the interaction between humans rather than the pattern. People approach rope from a myriad different directions\, motivations\, and interests\, so our classes should reflect that diversity of approach.  \n\n\n\nThe order of classes may change depending on the pace and needs of participants. See the curriculum of our rope track \n\n\n\n\nHarness Intro\n\n\n\nDeeper Dive/Different Versions/Magic Tips and Tricks\n\n\n\nTying with Movement/Ranboo\n\n\n\nPartial/Static Suspension (Upline Review)**\n\n\n\nInterview Metaphor\n\n\n\nSuspension with Transition Options (Upline Special Considerations)**\n\n\n\nFloorwork\n\n\n\nChallenges! \n\n\n\n\nAll Level classes are designed for partner work\, though you are welcome to attend solo and absorb information.  \n\n\n\nA brief note on suspension: \n\n\n\nYou don’t have to suspend in these classes!

SUMMARY:Playfighting
DESCRIPTION:Play fighting is a completely different way of engaging with other people. The way we move\, think\, and relate to our environment changes in this type of interaction.

All constellations are welcome.  \n\n\n\nIn a safe environment\, participants can challenge themselves and each other to fight with each other in a playful and joyful way. Not winning but experiencing is the focus of this monthly event.
