Box Ties II Rope Class

Box Ties II Rope Class

You’ve mastered the first two ropes, now it’s time to tie the third!

The third rope of the box tie is a striking addition, but it does more than just contribute to the aesthetic. In this class, learn how to decide which finish is right for your tie to contribute to the structure, stability, or sensory experience of the box.

Options are limitless, and the choice is yours! Let Kosmick and Truly guide you in exploring and refining your box tie to bring your scenes to the next level.

Bottom-lead education will be provided as this tie requires the active participation of both partners.

Prerequisites:

• Intro to Rope or equivalent experience

• Rope Foundations or familiarity with basic knots and frictions (X friction, half moon friction, munter, L friction)

• A two-rope box tie

• Top and bottom awareness of body mechanics, recommend active bottoming techniques

Required equipment:

• Minimum four pieces of bondage rope

• Safety equipment (including safety shears/cutter)

• Notebook and pen

Kosmick

@Kosmick has been getting tangled in knots most of their adult life, with an interest in the beauty and narrative power of bondage reaching back into childhood stories of damsels in distress. They began studying rope bondage in 2011, and intensified that study in 2016 after joining the Ottawa BDSM community. As an instructor, Kosmick takes an approach of breaking down classic structures and forms, with an emphasis on *why* things are tied the way they are, and an examination of the decision making processes of a tie. They are committed to demystifying rope bondage and empowering learners at all levels to experiment with what they know and pursue avenues to have fun with their rope. They view rope as a tool of expression, and look to inspire others to build connection and intimacy through their tying.

Truly

With over 10 years of experience in rope bondage spaces, Truly (she/her) is passionate about active bottoming, modular ties, and creating emotive experiences in the classroom. Primarily a rope bottom, she also has experience with tying and self-suspension. Truly’s student-centered teaching style focuses on helping rope bottoms cultivate intuitive body awareness and gain the confidence to define and communicate their specific needs. With a rich history of rope education and performance across Quebec and Ontario, she is always eager to share her love of ropecraft.
