Semi-Open Rope
2022-12-03 18:00 - 21:30 | Kinbaku New Mexico – Santa Fe, NM
Semi-Open Rope is a gathering for people interested in all forms of rope bondage. While KNM’s focus is Japanese Kinbaku, we welcome anyone who would like to meet with others sharing an interest in rope.
When:
Semi-Open Rope is normally hosted on Saturday evenings. Other events to be scheduled based on input from attendees.
Important – If you want to attend our events, read all of this:
This is NOT a Public Event. If you have not attended an event at KNM in the past 18 months, please use the Contact form. Introduce yourself, and give a brief summary of your interest and/or experience with Rope Bondage. We will then contact you.
RSVP:
We use email for RSVP. Please be serious about attending. Reserving a place and not showing-up is considered bad manners. Doing so (without some sort of prior notice) will put you at the bottom of the list for future events.
Reservations close on the Thursday before the event. Final invitations are sent on Friday.
Space is Limited:
The KNM Juku is an intimate space. No more than 6-8 guests will be allowed.
Covid Safety:
Let’s not allow politics to interfere. However, we are requiring everyone at this event to be fully vaccinated. If you have chosen or have medical reasons to not be fully vaccinated, please do not RSVP for this event.
What should you bring?
– An open mind.
– A willingness to meet and interact with others interested in rope bondage.
– If you absolutely want to tie, bring someone to tie. If you don’t come with a partner, we can’t guarantee there will be anyone. But, you might just meet someone.
– Rope. We recommend at least 3 or 4 lengths of rope, preferably Jute, 7-8 meters in length, and 5-6mm in diameter.
Don’t have rope of your own?
We have limited rope available for use. And we always have rope for sale – both for beginners, and high-quality professional Jute.
Why is there a fee?
There is no required fee for participation in this event. We appreciate donations (suggested minimum of $5 per person) to help maintain the space, equipment, and provide for rope we loan to participants.
When events become instructional, we have also asked for a $20 (student only) exchange of value. Note that regular private sessions are $60.
If you absolutely can’t afford to donate, please let us know. We won’t refuse you attending because of a lack of ability to pay.
Kinbaku New Mexico teaches Rope Bondage for Beginners. And the basics of Japanese Kinbaku, Shibari, and Semenawa. We are easily accessible to students in Santa Fe, Albuquerque, and Taos, NM.
