Ropes Picnic
[scroll down for PT version]
Practice your rope skills with us in a public park in Lisbon!
Bring food and drinks of your choice and a picnic blanket
Participation is free of charge but limited to 20 people. So, please, PM me and I’ll put you on the list
We’ll begin with a short briefing on health and safety, session negotiation, and basic ropes etiquette, so please do your best to attend from the very start unless you’ve been in the rope business for a while already.
FAQ
“I’m an absolute beginner. Does it make sense for me to come?”
It sure does. There will be people to introduce you to one or two basic knots, the elementary health and safety procedures, and the basics of session negotiation
“I have no ropes of my own, will I find some there for me to use?”
Yes, we’ll be able to lend you some. However, it's best to come with your own. The cotton ropes that you can find in any sex shop are a good starting point…
“I have no rope partner, does it make sense for me to come on my own?”
Yes, it does. Feel free to ask if anyone wants to tie with you and respect whatever answer comes your way. Also, there are plenty of things a person can learn just by being there or practising self-tie...
“I don’t want to be seen doing ropes in public, will there be enough privacy?”
Well, it’s a public park...
Questions? Feel free to PM me :)

Venham praticar cordas connosco num parque em Lisbon!
Tragam comida, bebidas e uma toalha para piquenique.
A participação é livre, mas limitada a 20 pessoas. Por isso, se faz favor, mandem mensagem para ficar na lista.
Iremos começar com uma breve introdução às normas de segurança, à negociação de uma sessão de cordas, e às regras básicas de interação. Por isso, a não ser que pratiquem cordas há muito tempo, por favor, venham cedo :)
Perguntas Frequentes:
“Sou iniciad@, faz sentido que eu participe?”
Claro que sim! Haverá pessoas que lhe poderão explicar o básico
“Não tenho cordas para shibari, vou encontrar algumas no sítio?”
Sim, mas considere que as cordas de algodão que poderá encontrar num sex shop qualquer já prestam bastante para começar com ligaduras básicas. É aconselhável que tenha pelo menos uma dessas
“Não tenho parceir@, faz sentido que e venha sozinh@?”
Faz, sim. Poderá perguntar às pessoas presentes se alguém está disponível para praticar consigo, respeitando obviamente a resposta, seja essa qual for… E há muito para aprender mesmo participando sozinh@s ou amarrando a si pró...
“Não quero ser vist@ a fazer shibari em público, vou ter privacidade suficiente?”
Orabem, trata-se de um parque público…
Dúvidas? Perguntem, sem medo :)

Directions:
The park is not small, so mind the following directions to find us:
From the Metro station Quinta das Conchas (Yellow Line), proceed to the entrance of the park, located directly in front of the exit on the north side. You'll find yourself in front of a café (Café das Conchas). Go past the café and you'll see another on the other side of the park (Café O Conchas).
Behind the second café, you will see a long wall that separates the park into two portions. The wall has two entrances, one right next to the café and the other a few meters west. Go into the other portion of the park, and you'll find us roughly behind the café. You will see a wooden ring hanging from a tree to mark the spot. It's easy. However, if you get lost, text me here on FL and I'll fetch you at the café "O Conchas".
Don't forget to bring a picnic blanket and at least some water with you. However, the cafés will be open in case you need anything
See you on Sunday! :)
