More about DesRec-Desert Rope Education Collective
Hello and welcome! We are Phoenix and the Valley's free shibari education group! We meet weekly to teach all different levels of ropework, from beginners rope handling to advanced suspension work. We believe every body that wants to be in rope should be able to, and we take strides to accommodate everyone.
We meet weekly, usually in private spaces that are full of vetted individuals who share the same passion for rope as we do, and occasionally make it out for local performances that support our community!
