Does the idea of restraint turn you on? Do you want to learn the building blocks of rope bondage? And can you really do that through a computer screen? Welcome to this hybrid class, combining some of the most popular content in Stella’s bondage arsenal.
In this class you will learn basic safety and bondage-focused negotiation along with the single column tie and double column tie – fundamentals you will be able to improvise with to create many different bondage positions and hot scenarios.
You’ll also learn ways to use rope to build intimacy and connection while you’re tying, and tricks to help you build confidence as a beginner. We’ll cover ways to make rope the whole point of your scene, as well as ways to use rope to facilitate other kinds of play, like impact, pressure points, sensation, and yes, even sex.
As a special bonus, with registration to this class you’ll also receive a free copy of Stella’s rope bondage e-book, which includes step by step instructions and full color photos for the ties covered in class, plus more ties and positions. With this resource, you’ll be able to practice what you’ve learned in class and continue your home study. (Learn more about the e-book here)!
