It has been over 1 year since the inception of Men Tying Men in Vancouver’s first class on Nov 13, 2023.

Thank you to VML, Vancouver Men in Leather who collaborated with me initially to kick start this program.

Thank you to all those who participated.

Thanks to @menropingmen in SF 2024 this year, I met a few other rope enthusiasts. Nothing is more rewarding than to follow up those opportunities and met up with @boundflyboy over a fun tie in Vancouver.

Rope-cation in San Francisco and met a new person to tie with, and yes I enjoyed tying him the 2nd time. Sadly it might be our last tie.

Part 2/2: Mature people in Shibari is much less represented like POC/QLGBT/Men model/body positive/transgender, etc. Both rigger and model in this case are people over 55 and feeling proud.

Model: Handsome Travis
