We are so excited to invite you to the new and improved Bound♥!
Bound♥ continues our stay at Salongen, but now with more Social time! For the spring events we’ll try longer events to both have time for a lunch break, and more time for a chilled social hangout. More energy for cuddly fun and sensuous play!
This month’s theme is Tie, Move, Play
Are you intrigued by the art of ropes and shibari? This beginner friendly mini-workshop offers a welcoming and playful entry into the world of rope. It can be the first time you’re handling ropes or maybe you’re seeking some new perspective and want to try approaching rope in an explorative way.
For the social, this means we’ll start off with a little warm-up/icebreaker that will get your creative juices flowing and maybe meet someone new, before unleashing yourselves for playful, sensuous exploration.

Are you new to Bound♥? We’re a nice, caring community who yearn for more genuinely human moments in rope, where we can bring our curiosity and heart, and together explore rope, playfulness and co-create moments of pleasure, fun and authentic sharing. We have some expectations you’ll probably want to read beforehand. You’re also heartily welcome to contact Neeka or Boundlove to tell us a little bit about yourself, your fears, expectations, and/or accommodations that we could help with.
We welcome anyone with interest, empathy and a curiosity towards fellow human beings, regardless of gender, sexuality or need of accommodations. However, we might not yet have made adaptations for your specific needs, please send a message and we’ll make the space inclusive together!
Bound♥ presents Tie, Move, Play
YogaNoir and Rubberduckie will guide you through some playful and norm critical exercises. Together we'll go over some fundamentals of tying, emphasizing the importance of negotiation, consent, and safety and to have fun! We’ll encourage you to move, play and explore what is possible when you letting go of preconceived notions about how shibari "should" be done both as the one tying and being tied. Can you and your partner(s) flow together like a dance, or is there beauty in exploring tension and distance?
Come as you are - tie, move and play with us!
☆ Expectations of you as a participant ☆
No prior shibari experience required!
Our exercises will invite you to interact with one or more partner(s) and change partner(s) between exercises. The exercises are open enough that you can engage with them at a comfortable level.
No dress code! Just bring your lovely self! If you don't have rope we have a communal rope pile that you are free to borrow from.
Welcome. °•○●☆♡ Magnumursus, Rubberduckie and Yoganoir
