Bound In Boston FAQ

• Is there sex or nudity at the workshops?

  No. The workshops are for learning about Japanese-style rope bondage techniques. It's a sexy topic - that's why no one under 18 is admitted - but the workshops themselves really concentrate on style and technique.

• How should I dress for the workshop?

  Dress for comfort. The workshops are very low-key events, and they're not intended to be play parties. Many people come in jeans or sweats. Think casual.

• Should I bring rope?

  You should bring rope if you're a top or a switch. If you're a bottom, someone else will probably have rope to use with you. See the glossary if these terms are unfamiliar to you. You can learn more about rope here.

• I don't have a partner - can I come to the workshop alone?

  Yes. Many partner-less people come to the workshop, and we usually have a fairly even balance between tops and bottoms.

  That said, we don't make any efforts to maintain a balance between men and women, or tops and bottoms. It'd be too hard, and we don't want to make it a practice to exclude anyone from our events. That means that sometimes there'll be more of one than another. It's usually pretty close, and we do work at matching up un-paired singles, but it's not perfect, and that means sometimes a few people spend some time just watching.
