Instructor @DoodleMe, @KnottyLola, and team will take you through some of the most basic concepts of Japanese rope bondage (Shibari). You'll learn some theory, and a few beginner friendly knots that you can use at home and that lay the foundations to more advanced ties.

This peer based workshop is aimed at complete beginners. Singles, pairs and groups are welcome. Spots are limited based on the size of the workshop space. First come first serve. No dress code, but it's suggested you avoid loose clothing as this makes it harder to tie.

Please bring your own (non-stretchy) rope if you have it. A bring a blanket or something else comfy to sit on the floor without shoes is useful too. Workshop will be taught in English.

The workshop is entirely "lab mode" and there is no sexual content, but it remains for over 18's only.

@DoodleMe is a software engineer at FetLife, based in Belgium.

They’re part of the RopeLabs village, creating welcoming spaces to explore Shibari through hands-on workshops and jams.

Passionate about queer-friendly kink education and peer-led learning.
