Shibari for Beginners by Earth and Salt

Kink curious? Want to play with rope but are not sure how or where to start? We’ve got you covered! Shibari for Beginners by Earth and Salt is exactly what you’re looking for.

Join local kink ambassadors, Tim & Devon, of Dark Desires Vermont, for our Shibari 101 workshops. In a safe and playful environment, we will explore: rope safety, consent, rope selection and care, basic knots, a few ties (single and double column ties, pentagram harnesses, and karada), as well as the importance of communication and aftercare.

The first 1.5 hours will be spent actively learning the above, and the last 30 minutes are for Q&A and shopping. All attendees get 10% off any purchases made the night of the event.

No experience is necessary, and all bodies are welcome. Wear comfortable clothing that will allow you to move. Please let us know if you have any considerations for disabilities at [email protected].

If you have ropes, feel free to bring them; we will provide ropes for this course and will have them available for sale.
