Floor Rope:

Skills for Connection and Communication

w/ Robb_Snow and Snoh

Price (per tying pair): BOUND Members $30 | TIED Members $40 | WRAPPED Members $50

Class Description:

This class will explore intention, emotional communication, movement, and connection in floor-based rope. Combining rope/partner handling, one-rope work, and positional play, participants will cultivate presence, awareness, and sustainable tying practices.

This class focuses on fundamentals of connection, communication, and fluid body movement. Class topics are suitable for all levels of experience and will cover a variety of drills, games, exercises, and basic forms that reinforce class concepts and provide creative opportunities for exploration.

The focus will be on how we tie and what tying communicates rather than what we tie and how to tie it.

Prerequisites:

- Ability to tie a non-collapsing single column (tops).

- Negotiated ability to tie in close proximity to/contact with your partner.
- An interest in improving your ability to communicate in rope as a top or bottom.

Equipment:

- Small rope kit (3-5 full length ropes, assorted shorter lengths as desired)

About the Instructors:

Robb_Snow (He/Him) (@Knot_Robb_Snow)

Robb has been involved in Japanese rope bondage as a student, teacher, and performer since 2013. Robb loves both tying and being tied and particularly enjoys the connection and intimacy that can be achieved through rope. Robb's tying style mixes sensuality and sadism, with a focus on creating a shared container to playfully explore vulnerability and desire.

Snoh (She/Her) (@zoesoteric)

Snoh discovered her passion for rope bottoming in 2022, drawn to its beauty, intimacy, and the profound connections it allows. Her journey in Shibari has been transformative, teaching her more about communication, interpersonal relationships, energy exchange and a deep exploration of one's self. Beyond the ropes, Snoh cherishes the connections she forges with her partners and the kink community. She seeks to share her knowledge and passion through workshops and demonstrations, volunteering, and fostering an environment of exploration.
