This workshop - which, combined with the Intro Day, is suitable for beginners - focuses on the many creative and playful possibilities of rope bondage. Ropes on the body and their tied forms are in themselves a special experience and aesthetically interesting. We want to go a little further by exploring the creative and emotional potential of power dynamics and sharpening our presence in the creation of playful scenes.
This floorwork course also focuses on the basics of Japanese-style rope bondage. In addition to basic and improvisation techniques, classic patterns and the various safety aspects, we also deal with body awareness and posture, as well as interaction and communication between the partners.
We discover how the bound and the bound can shape their encounter in a variety of ways, in trusting play with power and submission, in empathic communication and mutual devotion, in deep connection and intensity.

FURTHER INFORMATION
NOTES ON THE EVENT
Singles as well as couples and all other constellations can register.
There is switching, i.e. the exercises are repeated so that all participants experience both being tied up and being tied up. Couples who do not wish to switch can remain in a fixed role allocation. Please let us know when you register if this is the case.
The aims of our events are to learn together as a group and support shared processes as well as personal development. Couples and all other types of partnerships or constellations are welcome, but you should be aware and open to the fact that the courses are not designed as partnership experiences and that we address each person as an individual. For example, in order to include all participants equally, we usually work with random partner combinations in the exercises. This means that there will be both the same and different gender combinations. Participants should generally be open to working with any person and any body. Exceptions can be discussed on a case-by-case basis.
Gender identity, sexual orientation, age or membership of often marginalized groups such as BBIPoC, migrants, refugees, LGBTQIA*, disabled people, etc. are not criteria when registering and selecting participants. This means that, in principle, everyone is equally welcome and we endeavor to do justice to the respective constellation and different needs, but our resources are limited. If you have any questions in this regard, please contact us.
We expect you to be careful, communicative, consent-oriented and mindful, and we encourage you to respect your own boundaries and self-responsibility.
Hate speech will not be tolerated. Please bring "candy speech".
We reserve the right to ask participants to leave the workshop should their behavior be hurtful or too problematic, and we reserve the right to do so without explanation - although we will likely try to explain. Workshop fees would then be refunded in full. Further claims are then excluded.
