When I was at Shibaricon I took two of Lee Harrigton’s classes, one was Rope for sex the other speed
bondage.  I enjoyed the classed and chatted with him afterwards. I found out he was going to be in Boston
in Augest so we arranged to meet up for a private class

Well that was last night!

It was a great experience, beyond the class itself, just getting to chat hang out and do a nice dinner with my friend *A*,
Lee and Lee’s friend Coral was really nice.

His one on one teaching was great for me, Lee was very good teacher, and helped a lot with everything
from refining and improving my skills.  *A* really enjoyed herself and as we were tying her
little happy sighs could be heard coming from her

There was so much that I learned, here is just a point form of it.

“Mermaid” tie

Six connected bands about the body but arms free
above breasts
below breasts

waist
upper thigh

lower thigh
ankles

How to stop bands from slipping on body when weight is applied

Suspending the “Mermaid” tie

How to put the suspension lines in place in a pulley like way to aid
in getting friend suspended and to adjust angle

Did this with both one long line .. and 3 lines to make adjustments easier

The fun you can have with this tie..

-rotating direction my friend is facing
-Transitions to other ties
-Spin baby Spin..

Drum harness for inverted suspension

-The overall harness
-Learning why it is tied the way it is

-Doing an actual inversion with it
- getting them inverted
- Where to go from there..
convert to flat suspension and so on

Fun tie to apply some that I learned

From a picture on Hogtie.com,  basically my friend was bound
in position much like a hurdler’s  leg out stretched forward
other back and bent, with upper torso stretched out to meet the
forward stretched leg

Beyond that..

-over all safety tips
-improvement of my basic techniques
-Fun idea on how to make cool rope marks

The key thing I came away with is that rather this all being a formula,  I took away
how to take the things and make it my own, how they are techniques to then apply as you
want, not just  a tie to do over and over same way like a photocopier

I am really looking forward to my next play session where I can expand on what I learned
with a great night with friends
