The Single Greatest Rope Exercise. Ever!

Not an exaggeration! If Addie could teach everyone, regardless of level, just one exercise it would be this one. If ropes were music this would be an etude, an exercise that can be practiced in different ways, with different emphases, to develop different techniques and skills. It covers protecting finger joints, nailing and maintaining tension, preventing rope burn, and body handling and movement while tying. And it results in a suspensionable harness, if you are into that!

People are welcome to switch, come solo and find someone to tie with, or come solo and practice on themselves. Not quite as effective but still worthwhile.

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.
