SUMMARY:Shibari - Intro to suspensions
DESCRIPTION:You’ve taken the Intro classes\, you know your single column from your double\, and you’re ready for more. Intro to suspensions builds the foundations for a wide variety of skills beyond the basics. \nIn these sessions\, we slow things down and build the skills to help you become confident\, capable rope players. You’ll refine your techniques\, explore simple patterns with more intention\, and start working with connection\, communication. We offer a mix of hands-on guidance\, practical exercises\, and space to ask the questions that don’t quite fit into an intro class. \nPerfect for anyone who wants to solidify their fundamentals\, deepen their understanding\, and feel ready to step into our full range of rope offerings. \nCome build confidence\, control\, and creativity — one knot at a time.

SUMMARY:Mechanical engineering for perverts
DESCRIPTION:Not a workshop but a laboratory. Playful experimenting with all kinds of things and materials that could be put together into hand-made fucking machines. There will be motors\, hand cranks\, rods\, connectors\, joints\, sliders\, and tools for us all to make a functional machine together. And the best part: after making it\, we need to see if it actually works.* Team work makes the dream work! \nYou don’t need to have any tools or skills\, just curiosity. The machines that work will be available at the studio until the next lab.  \n*Please bring your own toy (suction cup or vac-u-loc attachment style toys) as well as a towel if you want to try.

SUMMARY:Shibari - Intro to suspensions
DESCRIPTION:You’ve taken the Intro classes\, you know your single column from your double\, and you’re ready for more. Intro to suspensions builds the foundations for a wide variety of skills beyond the basics. \nIn these sessions\, we slow things down and build the skills to help you become confident\, capable rope players. You’ll refine your techniques\, explore simple patterns with more intention\, and start working with connection\, communication. We offer a mix of hands-on guidance\, practical exercises\, and space to ask the questions that don’t quite fit into an intro class. \nPerfect for anyone who wants to solidify their fundamentals\, deepen their understanding\, and feel ready to step into our full range of rope offerings. \nCome build confidence\, control\, and creativity — one knot at a time.
