SUMMARY:Anomalies
DESCRIPTION:Anomalies is a weekend gathering with the aim of exploring what else is out there in kink\, intimacy\, relationship\, and sexuality. What perspectives can we find if we deviated from the usual conference style where selected and often (semi-)professional presenters offer contents that repeat itself? What can we learn if we democratized that selection of content and presenters? What experiences may await us if we attend something that isn’t already fixed? \nWith these questions in mind we want to invite you to a gathering that is neither a conference nor an unconference\, strictly speaking. It is an invitation to explore together possibilities and potentials of all of us. For more details about the event\, please see the post here.  \n  \nSpecial Event Refund Policy:  \nTo cancel\, email us at info@studio-allegory.com with your name\, your order number\, and the event name. \n\nMore than 7 days before the event: Full refund (-$3.50 administrative fee).\nBetween 7 days and 48 hours before the start of the event: 50% of the ticket price\, less a $3.50 administrative fee OR ticket transfer to a similar future event.\nLess than 48 hours before the event starts or no-show: No refund or credit.

SUMMARY:Into The Darkness - Shibari Experience
DESCRIPTION:Turn out the lights\, and let the world disappear. \nFor this shibari experience\, we’ll make the studio as dark as possible\, and then we’ll tie. \nWhen you can’t see the rope\, you have to feel it. When you can’t watch the movement\, you have to pay attention to it. \nThis is shibari stripped of the visual: an invitation to explore touch\, tension\, communication and sensation in the dark. Take the opportunity to work on your technique\, experiment with sensory deprivation\, or simply enjoy the pleasure of not seeing exactly what comes next.\nLet your eyes adjust to nothing\, and let your hands take over. \nBring your rope. Bring someone you trust. Or come curious and find your way into the darkness. \nFormat:  \nAfter a slow arrival with lights still on we will all retreat into the tying areas and when everyone has settled\, we will be turning the studio into near complete darkness. Then we will be spending two hours tying and playing. Two lifeguards on duty will be available with little flashlights in case of emergency. If someone needs to get out the lifeguard will announce the flashlight usage with a countdown for everyone to close their eyes and when the light is gone again. \nAll tying levels and backgrounds welcome. For safety reasons we ask participants not to engage in full suspensions.

SUMMARY:Bullwhip 101 – the diversity of the sidearm flick
DESCRIPTION:The sidearm flick is\, in Andi’s opinion\, one of the most variable and diverse whip techniques in interpersonal play. Once mastered\, it allows you to explore a wide range of variations in distance\, intensity and target areas. And even before that we’ll cover save(r) ways to start (almost) directly in engaging playfully with your consenting partner person as this is intended to be a couples workshop. \nAll participants will receive a professionally made (paracord) bullwhip for the duration of the workshop! \nWe’ll cover:\n•⁠ ⁠A bit of theory and safety\n•⁠ ⁠The basic sidearm flick\n•⁠ ⁠Body wraps\n•⁠ ⁠Variations \nRequired to bring:\n•⁠ ⁠Some kind of eye protection (comfortable! safety googles/prescription or sun glasses/ballistic glasses\, or a blindfold if that’s your thing). Mandatory for the whip receiver\, optional but recommended for the whip thrower.\n•⁠ ⁠If noise sensitive: ear plugs/in ears\nOptional to bring:\n•⁠ ⁠Long sleeved clothing\n•⁠ ⁠A well-made bull- or snakewhip in 4-5ft braided length (total length including fall and cracker between 150-190cm)

SUMMARY:Advanced Kinbaku Clinic - Hashira Special
DESCRIPTION:This workshop explores Andi’s (BelialX) and Lena’s approach to tying on the hashira. The hashira is not treated as a simple piece of equipment\, but as an element that actively participates in the scene. The first part focuses on the fundamental principles required when working with a fixed\, upright structure. This includes the technical peculiarities\, the additional safety considerations\, and the differences compared to free-hanging suspensions. A solid technical foundation forms the base on which everything else is built. \nAfter this technical groundwork\, the focus shifts to the creative and emotional possibilities that tying on a hashira offers. Instead of reproducing set poses or following predefined sequences\, we will emphasize building a toolkit that allows for a wide range of moods\, intensities\, and possibilities. The hashira can offer support or take it away\, can feel like a friend or a foe. The stories created with and around it matter more to us than copying any particular pattern. \nThis workshop combines technical\, emotional\, and creative input. We will cover different approaches and techniques to help refine and shape the interaction between the person tying and the person being tied. \nRequirements – tying person \n\n\nsolid suspension experience and confident upline management \n\n\na suspendable upper body tie that reliably works for suspensions with your workshop partner \n\n\nA set of 10 ropes \n\n\nRequirements – tied person \n\n\nawareness of personal emotional and physical capacities\, and the ability to communicate them \n\n\nwillingness to engage with an emotionally oriented style of tying \n\n\nNo previous hashira experience is required on either side. \nSwitching roles during the workshop is not recommended\, as the schedule does not allow for covering both roles equally. One person ties\, the other is tied. Participants can switch between exercises\, though. \nNo specific physical abilities are expected. However\, some exercises may not be possible for all participants. As with any form of rope bondage\, limited flexibility\, joint mobility\, or general condition can lead to physical or emotional limits. In such cases\, exercises should be skipped or replaced with an alternative. We will try our best to help you adapt the tie so it works for you. \nEach pair is responsible for realistically assessing their own mental and physical capacities. Refunds cannot be given if certain exercises or the entire course cannot be completed due to physical or psychological reasons. \n(text by BelialX)

SUMMARY:The care they deserve: rope making and maintenance Class
DESCRIPTION:Our ropes are doing a lot. They hold tight\, get bent in all directions\, get tied in knots and frictions. They are exposed to sweat and tears and other things while making sure that nobody drops. So\, let’s give them the bit of love and care they deserve. \nThe evening is there for people to sit together and chat about what our ropes have already seen. Let’s give them the warmth of a flame and the coolness of jojoba oil. Let’s get the uneven tensions of individual fibres back in place and even out the ends. \nWith tips and tricks from our rope maintenance expert Daremo and materials needed to care for our tools\, we will spend the evening together to give our ropes the love they deserve and extend their lifespan. \nAnd for the crafty folks: We will be making some ropes. Bring jute twine if you would like to have your own rope.
