Practical Rope Bondage with Fivestar

Practical Rope Bondage with Fivestar

Join Filthy Studios owner, industry veteran, and professional rope bondage rigger Fivestar for an immersive hybrid introduction to rope bondage. Designed for beginners, this class covers in-depth rope safety, essential techniques, and how to tie single and double-column ties using risk-aware methods. These foundational ties and techniques offer an easy way to get started in your rope play journey.

Familiarize yourself with various types of ropes, how they feel on your skin, how to coil your rope, and more. 

In-person participants will learn step-by-step how to handle rope with care and confidence, with real-time guidance provided by Fivestar. House rope and safety scissors will be available to practice with and for sale on the premises. 

For online attendees, we recommend practicing single and double-column ties with a partner or on an inanimate object, such as a chair, bedpost, or other single-column furniture. Here is a link to purchase Filthy Studios' pink jute or cotton rope. We recommend the cotton rope if you plan on getting your rope dirty or want to clean it often. Cotton is also beginner-friendly and much softer than jute. Jute is a step up from a beginner rope and has a rougher texture. 

This class is perfect for those new to rope bondage and seeking a supportive educational environment.

List of what you will need for the class:

• Two lengths of 10-30 foot rope
• Safety Scissors
• A device with Zoom installed.
