The Devil Mask Society Presents: An Evening with Cynna Rae

The Devil Mask Society Presents: An Evening with Cynna Rae

Cynna is a charismatic rope slut from Austin, Texas, joining us for an evening in Van Nuys to instruct an upper-beginner rope lesson focusing on learning adaptable patterns and utilizing those patterns in connective play. She is primarily a rope bottom, as well as a proficient and passionate top, who uses her experiences on both sides of the rope to inform her teaching.

This evening, Cynna will lead us through a pattern for a chest and hip harness and demonstrate their use in play. Her teaching will focus on altering ties to suit the bottoms needs - including adaptations for mobility issues, physical preferences, and tying big bodies.

There will be options presented that work for ground play, partial, and full suspension. Students will be given time after instruction to lab and experiment with things they have learned in class. No hard points will be made available during this class.

Please note: This is an upper-beginner level class. Attendees should come with their own rope, general knowledge of pattern construction, a fundamental understanding of rope safety, as well as some tying experience.

If you have questions regarding this event, please contact FemmeFemoral.

Knowledge Needed:
TOPS should feel comfortable tying a non-collapsing single column tie and have experience attempting several harnesses (chest harness, hip harness, futomomo, etc.).
BOTTOMS should have a good idea of their own risk profile, as well as some experience working on their own body awareness.
ALL TYING PARTIES should be able to communicate to their partner about their needs in a clear and non-judgmental way.

Please Bring:
8-12 lengths of rope
**Note: the instructor teaches knots and frictions using a natural fiber jute rope. These may not translate to synthetic/nylon rope, due to the nature of the material.**

Note-taking supplies

Class Schedule:
Friday, 7/12/19, 7:00pm-11:00pm

Presenter Bio & Venue Information:

Cynna has performed on stage at Ropecraft: San Antonio and can be found regularly instructing as the co-leader of Hitchin Bitches: ATX. Recently, she has brought her knowledge of body awareness and rope handling to Sacramento, Oakland, and Denver.

This will be a body positive, consent aware, and LGBTQ+ friendly event hosted in a queer-owned space by plus size and LGBTQ+ folx of color. Please feel welcome to come as you are - all identities will be respected as we expand our knowledge of rope bondage.

Note: This venue is a commercial space rented for our use. The area is carpeted, however, you may want to bring layers, a cushion, or a small blanket. It can get cold when people are tying or being tied, and sitting on carpet for several hours can be hard for some people.
