The Duchy in Detroit

A Day With Lazarus & Blue

March 22nd

Full day workshop for all experience levels

  • Lazarus Redmayne has been active in the scene since he was legal and loves to share his passion for rope and other types of bondage. He has taught at C.O.P.E., Winter Wickedness, Bound in Boston, Rubber Ball, Naughty Revival and privately for many years. His teaching style is practical and fun, and easy to understand.  His high-engagement classes will ensure that you leave with new and useful skills. Lazarus owns and maintains www.TheDuchy.com. Everything you learn in his classes is also on The Duchy, so you will have a ready reference, if needed.

    Lazarus is joined by his partner and co-author, Kajira Blue. Blue is relatively new to the rope scene, having come to the world of bondage as a side effect of her fascination with human sexuality and psychology.  She quickly developed extensive experience with rope from a bottoming perspective with an emphasis on safety and risk management, an invaluable part of understanding rope. 

  • Foundations of Rope

    This hands-on beginner’s class covers safety, style (looking cool), negotiation, how to evaluate the skill of a top or bottom, and more. 

    Rope fashion: Corsets

    This class will demonstrate a simple method for creating a waist cincher/demi-corset on your partner.

    This is a hands-on class and you will leave with practical knowledge and skills.

    Speed Tying

    During the first half we will go over how to tie three variations of one of my favorite little-known bondage knots -- the Prusik -- and practice several very cool applications. 

    The second half of the class features two techniques for rapidly applying rope to a victim... er... partner.
