PRIVATE CLASSES

Bespoke private tuition in rope bondage, BDSM and intimate exploration in London

​

Whether you're looking for a gentle introduction to rope, hoping to explore BDSM in a safe and supportive environment, or wishing to develop a long term rope practice, every private class is tailored to your experience, goals and dynamic.

​

I work with individuals and couples to support embodied learning, intimate exploration and practical skill development. Together we'll build confidence through thoughtful, consent-forward teaching that blends technical understanding with creativity, pleasure and play.

​

Private tuition is available in London, either in one of several fully equipped private studios or online where appropriate.

 

My Approach

​

No two people learn in exactly the same way.

​

The offerings below provide a framework for how we might work together, though every session is adapted to your individual needs, interests and pace. Whether your curiosity lies in rope bondage, BDSM, power exchange or simply finding new ways to connect with yourself or your partner, we'll shape the experience together.

​

We begin with strong foundations in rope handling, tension, body mechanics, communication and safety before progressing into harnesses, predicaments, scene development and adapting rope to your own style.

​

Technical learning is always grounded in pleasure, communication and play. My aim isn't simply to teach a sequence of ties or techniques, but to give you the understanding and confidence to make rope your own.

​

Learning about kink and rope takes time. Whilst I do offer one off taster sessions, I suggest considering exploring over time by spacing multiple sessions over several weeks. This way you'll have the opportunity to practise, integrate and build confidence before introducing new layers of technique. In my experience this creates a far more enjoyable learning process, deeper understanding and longer lasting skill than trying to learn everything in a single session.

Booking Information

​

Policies & Booking

  • Private classes have a minimum duration of 2.5 hours, although I generally recommend a programme of three or more sessions for those wishing to build confidence and develop their practice over time.

  • A deposit is required to secure your booking and covers studio hire, planning and preparation. Deposits are non-refundable.

  • If you need to reschedule, I completely understand that life happens. Please provide at least 48 hours' notice to transfer your deposit to a new date.

  • Deposits are valid for three months from the original booking date.

​

When Getting in Touch

To help me recommend the most suitable approach, please include:

  • Your previous experience with rope bondage, Shibari or BDSM (if any)

  • What you'd like to explore, learn or experience

  • Any accessibility requirements, injuries or boundaries you'd like me to be aware of

  • Whether you're attending solo, as a couple, or require a rope partner/model

  • Your preferred dates and general availability

​

If you're not quite sure what you're looking for yet, that's absolutely fine too. Every enquiry begins with a conversation. Once I understand your experience, interests and goals, I'll recommend the approach I feel will best support your learning. I'm always happy to have an initial conversation and help you decide which approach might be the best fit!

​

The aim isn't simply to learn ties and patterns, but to develop the confidence to make rope your own practice...deepening connection, trust and intimacy in a way that feels authentic to you.
