Bound to Rise is a rope workshop & jam started by glory moonfire and Daniel Moreh in Santa Cruz, blending presence, connection, and rope bondage into one delightful evening. Rooted in community, learning, and respect, it offers a container where people can engage in experiential learning at a gentle pace. By practicing presence and attunement, people are encouraged to be active, conscious participants in their exploration of self and other in rope.
The evening begins with a rope workshop open to all levels of experience. We will learn foundational skills for creating a fun and meaningful rope experience. Then, we transition into an open jam for socializing, snacking, dancing, labbing, and rope scenes. During the jam, a House Top will be available to tie participants and help create a magical night. ✨🌌
Whether new to rope or experienced, come and see what rope community can mean to you: attuned presence, nervous system regulation, embodied connection, dominance and submission, shadow work, and more. ☀️🌙
**💙Community Guidelines💙**
**🐛This is a place of practice.** Come and learn new skills, meet people, and share what you can. We hope to cultivate a community centered around practicing rope in a safe and supportive container.
**🐒Take really good care of yourself.** Giving or receiving "no" can be a challenge in our wider culture. Let's use this as a space to practice being honest about what we want, what we don't want, and what we're not sure about. Having boundaries is how we can be in good relationship with one another.
**🐝 Let's take care of one another.** By practicing together, in community, we can be a source of support for people around us, and receive support from them as well. We're not strangers here, or at least not for long.
**🌱 Play within your skill level.** There's a wide range of what's possible with rope. It takes training—more than you might initially think—to build awareness of all the possible risks. Aim to play within your risk tolerance. Be safe and take it slow.
**🐙We all make mistakes.** If you experienced a consent violation, a consent oopsie, or anything that just made you feel a bit uncomfortable for any reason, please let us know. Seriously—no matter how small or big! Having that information helps us understand what's happening in the space, recognize where we as a community could use more awareness, and help individuals understand their impact and potentially change their behavior for the better.

**Offerings and Definitions:**
✨ **All-levels Workshop:** Workshop for newbies, beginners, and intermediates to learn relational and tactical aspects of rope.
🍓**Snack lounge:** Potluck-style social space. Bring a snack to share with others and connect with like-minded folks. Pro tip: Bring finger food that can be easily fed to others who are tied up, like chocolate or cherries!
🧪 **Rope lab:** Place and practice for experimentation. Unlike in a rope scene, rope labbing is informal and encourages dialogue for learning about knots, sensations, boundary exploration, and more.
🌟 **Rope scene:** Negotiated rope experience. People outside the scene are welcome to observe, but please refrain from chatting nearby.
**🎩 House top:** Experienced rope casters who are available to tie with participants during the jam. This is a great opportunity for folks who are new to rope to be tied.
**🙏 Love for Bound to Rise 🙏**
