    In this workshop, we want to make sure that practitioners know they don't have to take themselves too seriously. We are queering ropes, we deviate from the norm and have fun. We tie with everything but hands. This is mostly for the fun of it but also contains a very valuable lesson: Understanding how certain...

      Shame, for many, is a constant shadow, a companion that seems to hold the power for great pain as well as for great pleasure.

      The pursuit of ‘connective’ or ‘communicative’ rope is central to the experiences many of us seek in rope bondage. Despite this, connection and communication as concepts are slippery to define, tricky to exemplify, and often tautological in explanation. Connection is not created by a set of actions, by a particular pose, by close proximity,...

    Ranboo, literally translated means stormy, overwhelming, wild. About 10 years ago, Barkas developed Ranboo as a way of rejecting a static and often seemingly boring practice of rope bondage. A wild dance while tying with each other is the result. Ranboo is characterized by a large amplitude of variation of distance, speed, and intensity, paired...

    How can we approach the big ominous terms in kink and intimacy? In the vast field of kink, sexuality, and intimacy we encounter them on almost every step. Nothing seems to be able to hide from them; if we meet them, they are often the reason for heated debates and absolutistic claims about their meaning....
