Feedback from Previous Workshops
"The smiling, humour, enthusiasm and skill of the teacher - thank you! Great breakdown of each tie and thorough introductory talk. Great demonstrations and appreciated that you took the time to go to each pair to check their work and answer questions. I was nervous to start but ended up feeling confident and relaxed with a new skill I'd like to continue developing."

"My partner, who was interested but a little reserved prior to the event, and I both loved spending the evening with you and the others in the workshop. It was beautifully planned and run. Pitched at the right level, and perfect pace. Not too much pre-amble - which a lot of workshops fall into the trap of. Anyway - you did a perfect job of it."
~Fundamental Rope Bondage
"Very clearly spoken instructions coupled with visual demonstrations at a pace not too quick. Very patient in helping us when needed and eagle-eyed on all . Encouraging! This contributed to the class bonding well as no one felt left out."

~The Tantra of Rope Bondage
"I very much enjoyed your teaching style. Your passion and affection for the subject matter really shone through, which in turn, really motivated me to think creatively. This was my first bondage/kink workshop, and it was everything I imagined it could be, and more. It just felt so safe, secure...and right!"
~Fundamental Rope Bondage
"To take a thing such as bondage, and make it feel completely natural, and not taboo or over-capitalised would not be easy, and yet you made it feel that way. To be honest, I found that whole workshop to be humbling, in a good way. I found that letting go and trusting someone in that way is a true sort of freedom. A Liberation in Submission. And I thank you for that personal discovery!"
~Fundamental Rope Bondage
"I enjoyed the further development of connection and intimacy with my partner. Beautiful. Tantra is still a bit of a mystery to me, but the practices developed on the day have helped us to become so much more mindful, aware and loving."
~The Tantra of Rope Bondage
"I most enjoyed the group dynamic...the instructor was fun and knowledgeable."
