About the Educator:

Fred's relationship with rope has taken many forms and has been ever present in his life. From scouts to theater rigging to rock climbing and now rope bondage. Fred began practicing rope bondage in 2011 in order to enhance his BDSM scenes. His influences have been American, European, and Eastern. Fred's passion for rope itself exceeded his own knowledge and he began to travel for the sole sake of learning more. The last 4 years of his life has been spent as a traveling rope-nomad, learning as many different styles and techniques as possible from inspiring teachers and riggers all over the globe. 

Fred is not easily categorized, stereotyped, or labeled... nor is his rope. Instead of following only one methodology of rope bondage in his tying and teaching, Fred wishes to amalgamate the unique wisdom of each of his teachers incorporating the distinctive styles of different cultures and his personal reverence for the magic in improvised rope into his own style. Fred's focus is on fusing traditional Japanese rope bondage with his own chaotic primal nature and a curiosity of the twisted and unexplored. He has taught intensives and conventions in the US and Internationally. Fred loves his students dearly and the game of learning how they learn. He wishes to inspire discipline and wonder in their personal tying practices and encourage everyone to dissect, inspect, and expand on anything he teaches. Fred thinks rope is an incredible tool and he looks forward to forever learning more about it.
