Self tying is exhausting and rewarding. It’s facing yourself and finding things, inner and outer. It’s beauty in struggle. This is for the sensation of depth, the fucking with limbs, the reaching for deep spaces in our bodies.

In this class we use a low suspension point and our own bodies to create strong sensation for masochistic meditation, or, if you prefer, chilling in the tentacles of the rope beast.
