Our Process

Our Approach to vetting Attendees

New attendees to our studio will need to undergo our vetting process. We have no requirement of any rope skills, just the practice of respect for everyone regardless of groups they identify with. Everyone will adhere to the Code of Conduct, which we expect everyone to know and follow no matter how much experience you have with sharing space with those in the alternate lifestyle.

Our process, in brief, includes checking with NCSF for any violation reports, the Dept of Justice Registered Sex Offender Registry and talking to provided references, ending with a brief video chat.

Our Approach to vetting Presenters

The founders of Bound Lark Rope Studio have a firm belief in a thorough vetting process for each and every presenter we allow into our space. As a rope studio, we continually refine and adjust our process in order to best serve our community as a supportive space for all those desiring to explore/teach rope and/or rope-related activities.

When Harm has occurred

An experience of harm is any break in connection and trust that may lead to a range of of consequences, including but not limited to physical harm, emotional trauma, mental distress, relational dysfunction and legal ramifications.. One of our goals is to help foster a healthy community, and we believe this is not possible without the accountability of every individual within the community, no matter what role they play. BLRS is committed to having an open-door policy for any and all feedback to promote an open and comfortable environment for everyone who steps into our studio.

BLRS is in the process of creating a form where each person who has experienced harm can report their accounts to us.
