Intermediate: Chapter 7: Tantalizing Tengu

We reach back into Japanese mythology for the name of this pattern, Tengu or Demon Tie, that will immobilize your partner’s arms in an elegant position to give a delicious sense of bondage and immobility.

Pre-requisites: all participants must have completed our beginner series or have equivalent tying experience; please check our Beginner curriculum page for more information. Riggers must have prior experience on how to tie a yuki single column cuff and half hitch (takedome). Bottoms and riggers must have prior knowledge on rope safety, especially nerve safety for tying rope on the arms.

What to bring/wear: 2-3 hanks of rope, either 8m or 10m based on tying pair’s preference

Do I need a partner for this class? Partners are recommended; the pattern taught in this class cannot be self-tied. If you come solo, you are welcome to sit back and observe during the practical part of class.
