This is a workshop for those who are complete beginner and have never touched a rope before. Here you will learn basics & safety. You may take this class once or several times, untill you feel safe to join our Rope Jams. Link here -

This is for those who feel they have mastered the basics, and ready to explore & play with ropes in a more unstructured way

When asking someone what Shibari is, you will get many different answers. Everything from a tool for connection, meditation, a way of expanding conciousness, sensual play, erotic, power dynamics, artistic, the list goes on.

The word "Shibari" means "to tie" in Japanese, and it has deep roots in the ancient martial arts and Hojo-jutsu, the traditional martial art of restraining captives. Over time, it transformed into an erotic art form known as Kinbaku, emphasizing the aesthetics of tying and the emotional connection between the partners.

In the modern era, Shibari has transcended its historical origins and is practiced as both an art form and a form of intimate expression. It has gained popularity in the BDSM community as a consensual and artistic way to explore power dynamics and enhance intimate connections. Shibari is not only about restraint but also about communication, trust, and the shared experience between those involved.

Rope Jam is more unstructured, and free flowing than the beginner workshop. You can join Rope jam without the beginner workshop, but we highly recommend you join that first.

Rope Jam is suited for beginners, and all levels of knowledge. Come play, socialize, and have fun!

If you are already advanced in rope, the space is open for you to practice, share wisdom and meet new people ( and maybe help out the newbies here and there).

Rope jams are open to all genders, sexuality, and ages above 18 yo. You can come alone, or with a partner.

Rope jams will take place the last thursday every month.

𝐏𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠:

Waterbottle
Warm socks
Yoga mat
Rope (if you have some, if not, we can provide for you to borrow)
Wear comfortable clothing, preferably a bit tight(like yoga pants).

Each rope jam might look different as time goes on, as we grow and learn, so will our jams, and there might be more advanced classes in the future. Our goal is to create a fun space for people to meet, and play with rope. Stavanger needs a rope community !

We can’t wait to hang out with you! <3
