Welcome to the Quiet Rope Jam, a calm and sensory-friendly space designed for those who thrive in a more soothing environment. Enjoy quiet music, dimmed lighting, and optional stim toys, with dedicated retreat areas for moments of rest or decompression. Whether you’re tying, being tied, or simply observing, this inclusive event prioritizes comfort, connection, and neurodivergence-friendly practices.
Rope jams is an open space format. Part hangout, part jamming with other like-minded people who are into rope bondage/shibari/kinbaku. Come and hang out and watch others do ropey stuff or do some yourself. The queer rope jam is where you can bring your (rope) partner(s) or meet new people who love to tie, be tied and/or self-tie. It is also a great space to have sessions in a safe(r) environment with people you do not know yet.
We welcome all styles, all bodies, all knowledge levels. There will be cute and quiet music, extra soft lighting and snacks.
LGBTQIA+ describes the full spectrum of non-mainstream sexual orientation and/or gender identity, meaning: lesbian, gay, bisexual, pansexual, transgender, non-binary, genderqueer/fluid, queer, intersex, asexual, aromantic, agender.
Friends describe people of any and all kinds of gender and sexual identities who are aware and respectful of the necessity, needs, and boundaries of a queer space and its marginalized community.
When you consider yourself a friend you show acknowledgement to and are respectful of everyone’s self-expression and do not assume, presume or project non-consensual ideas onto others. You actively request and use people’s chosen pronouns. You remain mindful of the fact that Karada House is first and foremost a space for queer people that you are also invited to attend. You have a genuine concern for the well-being of LGBTQIA+ people and remain in awareness of heterosexual and gender-straight privileges.
Friends don’t have to be perfect. None of us are. We request that we all proactively work and strive to be good friends and allies to marginalized people.
