One cannot not communicate. The smallest hand movements, facial expressions, body positions, and whatnot are adding to a patchwork of communication that is constantly at work between the tied and the tying person. A lot of that is happening subconsciously and we will never be able to mean literally everything we do. But we can make an effort. In this workshop, we explore the little details of body language that are spoken during a Kinbaku scene. We specifically look at the person tying and what they are doing in terms of hands, face, position, and timing.
Prerequisites: A strong interest in tying is enough. Although we will tie more or less complicated patterns, those are not the focus.

Who is this event for?
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 describes 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 safe(r) 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 pro-actively work and strive to be good friends and allies to marginalized people.
If you cannot afford the ticket price (even the solidarity price), please send us a message. We will find a way.
