LewBari weekend

Lew Rubens' first weekend long bondage extravaganza!

Friday April 9th through Sunday April 11th, 2010.

Friday is a slide show of some of Lew's favorite pictures over the years and a suspension demo. Saturday and Sunday are hard core teaching days. Taking attendees from basic bondage techniques right up through the most advanced rope bondage suspension the "Lewbari" way!

 

Join Lew for this first Lewbari Weekend!

The Lewbari Weekend will be a rare opportunity to spend 2 days with one of North America's top riggers. The class size will be kept small to insure everyone gets proper instructions and time to try what they are learning. Whether you are new to rope play or have experience, there will be something for everyone. The course will start Saturday with the very basics and finish on Sunday with everyone doing full suspensions. In a safe friendly environment Lew will take the mystery out of this exotic form of play.                        So join us April 9,10 & 11th for a weekend of learning, playing and having fun.

The workshop will be held in New Westminster BC Canada.

 

These classes HAVE to be limited in size! Sign up soon or you'll miss out!!  Info below!

***  More Examples of Lew's work  ***

 

Experienced rigger and suspension artist, Lew Rubens has a love and passion of bondage that shows in his work.
Known mostly for his wild suspensions, Lew joined the public side of BDSM play spring of 2001 and started his website, BoundNDetermined.com.   A few years later Kink.com made him an offer he could't resist and he began running Waterbondage for them from winter 2006, through spring 2008.  At that time moving into a "Bondage Consultant" position for the prestigious company.
On his own again now, Lew has plans to revive Boundndetermined.com and well as starting exciting new sites Lew Rubens.com and Lewbari.com. as well as contracting his Bondage Consulting knowledge abroad. 
Lew has presented his workshops and demos of his unique style at many BDSM and bondage industry events throughout the US, Canada, Jamaica and Germany.

What to Bring 

Required rope and equipment

 

You'll need the following equipment for the workshop. 

Rope!


Hemp, nylon, cotton. Bring whatever you have. One thing I believe in is using whatever kind of rope you WANT to use. You just need to understand the characteristics of different kinds of rope. And I'll help to teach you that. If you enjoy tying with it, USE IT!!

 

If you want to buy your own ahead of time, this is what I suggest:

Get an inexpensive solid braid nylon rope from your local hardware store.

200 ft would be about the minimum for basic suspensions.

400 is better if you can afford it.

Personally, I like my sets of rope in lengths as follows:

10 ea. 30ft   = 300ft  (minimum 4 ea. 30ft for workshop)

4  ea.  15ft   = 60 ft

4 ea. 7 1/2 ft= 30 ft.

------------------------

About 400 ft total

That amount allows me to do almost any suspension position I want.

Now if you are greedy like me and want to be able to do double suspension, my big

sets are 600ft.

 

Other Equipment

 

A safety tool for quick release from bondage.

I like EMT shears myself - I don't trust myself with a knife in an emergency...lol

Others like seat belt cutters.

Some like knives

Use what you want... but know HOW to use it!

A blanket or sleeping bag is nice to lay on during ties or keep warm with after 

Wear comfortable clothing
