About the Event

• 6:30 – 7:00 pm: Meet & Greet
• 7:00 – 8:30 pm: Instructional Time
• 8:30 – 9:00 pm: Practice
• 8:45 pm: 15-Minute Warning

Learn simple movement drills and strategies from Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu to manipulate, control, or immobilize your partner. Take those ideas further with rope and use that physical presence to create a powerful dynamic in your scenes.

There will be rolling around on the floor, so be sure to dress appropriately for movement and for tying/being tied.

As always, there will be plenty of folks around to meet and help anyone new to rope, and plenty of time for open practice and socializing.

Safety

We take safety seriously. While we hope that the space will be self-policing, group leaders may intervene if deemed appropriate.

We will ask all participants who plan to practice suspension to adhere to Fallout’s Suspension Guidelines.

We treat “red” as a universal safe word, and we also respect plain language … meaning that “stop” means stop and “no” means no.

If you feel uncomfortable for any reason, please talk to one of the group leaders. You may also contact us anonymously through the contact form on our website.

Inclusiveness

We welcome all participants and do not discriminate based on experience level, the style of rope, gender, age, sexual orientation, body type, or any other aspect.

Other Important Details

• Everyone is strongly encouraged to review the rules and Frequently-Asked Questions before attending.
• Dress comfortably for tying/being tied.
• If you have your own rope, please bring it. We will try to have additional rope on hand for you to borrow if you don’t have any.
• You may also want to bring a yoga mat, blanket, or pillow, as the floors at Fallout are not carpeted.
• Fallout is a fetish bar located in Shockoe Bottom. It has a full bar and kitchen. No outside food or drinks are permitted. Nudity is not allowed at Fallout because of VA-ABC Laws. Photography is not allowed at Fallout to protect its members’ privacy. You do not need to be a member of Fallout to attend this event.

About the Event

This is an open skill share event for anyone interested in rope bondage, including self-tying, and how that might be combined with acro-yoga and similar skill sets (aerial, lyra, etc.). All experience levels are welcome, and you’re free to participate in as many (or as few) different aspects as you’d like.

This event will serve as a safe place for like-minded individuals to practice these skills and to learn from individuals who may be more experienced. Although the inspiration for this group came from acro-shibari, the group also hopes to serve the larger community by providing an open space for practice for other skills that seek to challenge the body in a similar manner through strength, flexibility, and grace. (This is not a group for rope instruction.) Self-tying is welcome at this event.

A Word about Partners

Single participants are always welcome. You are free to watch, to self-tie, or to participate as you feel comfortable. We also have social time for the first half hour of the event where you can meet others and perhaps find a practice partner for the evening.
