I (they/them) am a queer, neurodivergent, disabled fat white rope switch, performance artist and teacher. 

 

I practice, teach and perform my blend of Japanese-informed rope bondage, somatic, theatrical and bio-mechanic techniques.

I bring a trauma-informed, neuro-affirmative and queer-centred approach to everything that I do. I work towards anti-racism and anti-ableism.

​

I'm passionate about consent, teaching people how to identify, communicate and honour their own and others' boundaries.

I'm passionate about enabling and encouraging the grounding effects rope has on all 8 of the senses.

I'm passionate about making rope accessible for people of all body shapes, sizes, mobility needs and health conditions.

I'm passionate about the healing power of trauma-informed, properly negotiated touch.  

​

I believe that rope bondage is not therapy, and that movement and touch, alone or with trusted partners, can be therapeutic. 

​

I teach regularly at Brighton Rope in the UK, collaborate on artistic projects, perform at New Love Brighton and guest teach. I also offer private teaching and tying sessions.
