Himboy is coming to Perth!

Welcome to the first workshop, Rope Communication 101. 

Have you ever wanted to learn how to communicate better in your rope practice? Ever been after a specific experience and struggled to find the words to ask for it? Ever wanted to know how to encourage those you tie with to communicate and create a more collaborative rope experience?
Come to Rope Communication 101, a workshop led by professional switch and all round rope nuisance, Himboy with demo top Dany Dayze. 

Throughout this workshop you will grow a deeper awareness of rope terminology from a partnership perspective, learn tools to help with communication across the whole experience of being tied from negotiations to debriefs, and walk away with a more confident understanding of your own desires in rope.

Participants can attend this workshop as pairs or singles, however exercises are designed to be practiced in pairs (you are welcome to pair up on the day, or simply watch and take notes). 

To participate in the practical elements of this workshop you must be comfortable with single and double column ties.

What do I need to bring?
Ropes, safety shears, a water bottle & some snacks if needed. 

What do I wear? 
Anything you feel comfortable in, and that you can easily move around in.
