Join the Demons for the Arae Series, their drop-in kink classes for all levels. This class, explore simple bondage ties and techniques that have potent and practical uses without signifcant time and/or effort.
Unlike our Bael Core Curriculum series, these classes do not build upon each other in any significant way. They are classes we have taught at conferences or in other venues that we are excited to bring to our regular programming at The 418 Project!
These classes are built to be accessible to absolute beginners, but there is something to learn for all skill levels in each class of the Arae Series. We provide technical challenges where applicable for more intermediate students and we strongly believe that having a beginner mindset is crucial to being safe and successful in kink. Our discussion and theory heavy classes are also always changing as the scene changes and we learn and grow as teachers and practitioners ourselves!
As we are rope focused in a lot of our teaching, we will have major elements of rope bondage in this class. It will be used as a tool and will be our main focus, but we will provide conceptual adaptations for other bondage methods in class.
You do NOT need a partner for this class, all of the material will be demonstrated and adapted for self-tying. We will aim to provide multiple ways to achieve each tie to account for differences in bodies, mobility, and general accessibility as best we can. Please let us know if there is anything else we can do to support you.
Due to these accommodations and the hands-on nature of our teaching style, we have very limited capacity on our classes. Tickets are available at the door if we are not sold out on our ticketing page already.
