Finding new rope partners, friends and community.
With Mercia & Francisco
Note: You are welcome to come to the Unpartnered Rope Jam, even if you have not attended the rope speed dating.
Finding friends and community within the rope scene can be challenging—finding new rope partners even more so. Our wish is to break down the barriers of shyness, fear of rejection, and social awkwardness. We want to make it easier for you to meet new people, connect with potential rope partners and enjoy an exciting evening.
And who knows; maybe it leads to long lasting rope connections!
To do this we will facilitate a rope speed-dating in the afternoon, followed by an unpartnered rope jam where you can tie with the people you just met, have a nice conversation in the corner – or perhaps just reconnect with people you’ve known for a long time.
The rope-speed-dating will start with a few ice-breaker exercises and conversations in smaller groups. We encourage you to express what you’re looking for with a rope partner so you can figure out if your needs are a match. Are you looking for someone to practice your skills with, or attend workshops together? Are you looking for someone for rope play dates—and if so, what kind of play are you interested in? Are you looking for a friend to attend jams, performances and other social rope events with?
After a little break we will lead a guided speed-dating in which you will have the possibility to talk to, maybe tie with and get to know new people – or just sit happily in the corner, watch and cuddle with Anya the house dog.*
*We have to warn you – if you start petting Anya you might not be able to get up and tie as she may insist that the petting continues for the rest of the night.
If you have any questions, please contact us.
We are looking forward to welcome you – Mercia & Francisco.

This is for everybody that knows how to tie a single column tie at least. We want to specifically create an atmosphere where beginners and more experienced people feel welcomed and get the chance to connect with other people – to potentially find their forever rope partner <3 (this sentence is intended to sound cheesy and should not be taken completely seriously)
