Rope Bondage is for everyone!

However, that hasn't necessarily been the case at our usual bondage jam so far, because often things are quite conventional and heteronormative there - and that definitely doesn't suit everyone.

So now there is the WINTA BONDAGE JAM!
WINTA stands for "Women, Inter, Nonbinary, Trans, Agender" and this particular jam is primarily about creating a space where people who identify as WINTA can just be amongst themselves. So basically it's quite simple: people who don't see themselves as WINTA, please stay away from the event.

For people who want to participate in the WINTA BONDAGE JAM for the first time, the NEWBIE INTRO is obligatory - regardless of whether they already know bondage jams in general. The intro is about the first basics of bondage with ropes, but especially about the basic safety and consent issues as well as how this jam is designed and for whom it is intended. The actual bondage jam begins after the intro.

Do you feel unsure whether you are welcome?

And what is a bondage jam anyway?

The art of rope tying - called shibari or kinbaku in Japanese - offers an impressive spectrum of physical, mental and emotional experiences. Shibari has much in common with dance, with yoga and meditation, has a performative and a touching aesthetic dimension. As a somatic practice, tethering opens up new possibilities of body and self-awareness, not infrequently with transformative potential. Mediated through the medium of rope, the bound and the bound can creatively shape their ritualised encounter, in empathic communication and mutual surrender, in trusting play with power and submission, in deep connection and intensity.

A bondage jam is not a guided workshop, but functions more like a tango milonga. People come together to bondage with others, to practice, to enjoy sessions, to exchange ideas or just to watch and gain first impressions and experiences. There is no fixed structure, participants are free to contact each other respectfully and openly, to get to know each other and to bond with each other. We are happy to welcome everyone, from the curious to professionals.

EINLASS / ENTRANCE

Bei der FINTA BONDAGE JAM und bei der QUEER BONDAGE JAM ist der Einlass auf bestimmte Einlasszeiten beschränkt. Die Türen sind nur zu den oben genannten Zeiten geöffnet. Im serrat(u)s bodywork erfolgt der Einlass an den Fahrrädern vorbei durch das Gittertor in den Garten und durch die große rote Tür zum Studio. Dort bitte draußen die Schuhe ausziehen und sie mit allen Sachen durch das Studio hindurch in die Teeküche und Umkleide nehmen. Ins Studio sollten dann nur die Sachen mitgenommen werden, die wirklich zum fesseln gebraucht werden.

– ENGLISH –
At the FINTA BONDAGE JAM and at the QUEER BONDAGE JAM, admission is restricted to specific admission times. The doors are only open at the times mentioned above. At serrat(u)s bodywork, admission goes past the bikes, through the wire gate into the garden and through the big red door to the studio. There, please take off your shoes outside and take them with all your belongings through the studio into the kitchenette and changing room. Only those things that are really needed for tying up should be taken into the studio.

KLEIDUNG / DRESS CODE

Rope bondage is bodywork with close body contact and at a bondage jam the atmosphere is a very important aspect. Already for hygienic reasons, but also for aesthetic considerations, we ask you not to participate in street clothes. We recommend at least yoga-style clothing, but even better: it can also be more fanciful, maybe fantastic or weird weird or in your own particular way comfortable – there are no further restrictions to your well-being and creativity. It's also nice to feel the ropes on your skin, therefore clothing is generally optional.
