We are unbelievably fortunate to have such a robust rope/kink community here in Detroit. Because of that we are able to continue to attract amazing presenters and performers from across the country and the world. Time and time again we are told these intensives are the best way to learn. Every one is unique and special in countless ways and you keep asking us for more. Thank you for your ongoing support and for welcoming these two wonderful humans.
Saturday morning: 10-12:30
Introduction to floating bamboo and setup: Ropeosaur and IPCookieMonster will discuss safety concerns, logistics, motivations, and principles of floating bamboo, particularly for floating bamboo transition sequences. The class will then prepare their bamboos for tying in the afternoon.
Saturday afternoon: 1-3:30
Restrictive Floating Bamboo by Ropeosaur with IPCookieMonster: In this workshop, we will be building off of traditional hashira tying techniques. We will also be discussing important factors to consider when setting up the Bottom for maintaining a static position when put under dynamic movement in multiple planes. An example from the instructor will be followed by a return demonstration from attendees. Note that attendees do not need to copy, and are in fact encouraged to experiment with alternative positions from the demonstration. Ropeosaur will share tips and tricks smaller tops working with advanced rope techniques and those that deal with chronic pain.
