Takate Kote (or Gote, also referred to as Box Tie) is one of the classic staples of Japanese-inspired rope bondage.
In this one-day workshop, Gestalta will dive deep into the principles of TK ties and give participants not only lots of knowledge of HOW to tie TK’s in a safe(r) and comfortable way but also WHY they are tied in this specific way. This lab is not only designed for people tying but will also provide information and time to lab & trial and error TK’s for the person in ropes.

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,
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.
