Rope Jams in Leuven

We host small, invite-only rope jams at Maison Tsuri Neko in Leuven. These are rope-focused, sex-positive events where all levels are welcome. Our jams emphasise peer learning, safety, and building confidence in a supportive environment.

Our primary language for hosting and safety briefings is English.

To get an invite or find out about upcoming events, contact us via c​o​n​t​a​c​t​@​t​s​u​r​i​n​e​k​o​.​o​r​g or FetLife, or check our FetLife events page.

What to expect

  • Rope-focused, sex-positive jam where everyone can learn from peers
  • A jam, not a workshop, but there are usually people happy to help with basics
  • All levels welcome, from absolute beginners to experienced riggers and models
  • Dedicated playroom on the top floor with suspension frame, tatami, and tie-friendly furniture
  • Space designed for floor work, partial, and full suspensions, and rope-based play
  • Small group sizes so everyone gets room to breathe, play, and ask questions

Practical information

What to bring

  • Comfy rope-friendly clothes; avoid very loose items that catch in rope
  • Your rope (we have practice rope, but bring your own if you have—or pick up rope and safety kits from us)
  • Safety scissors or another cutting tool made for rope
  • Anything you need for play or aftercare

Arrival and logistics

  • Arrive in vanilla-friendly clothing. Outfits and rope go on inside.
  • Use quiet, neutral language in the street and at the door. Kinky talk lives inside the house.
  • Staying the night is sometimes possible, especially if you travel from far. We have spare beds.
  • If you plan to stay over, let us know in advance so we can track beds and sofa space.

Food and drinks

  • We provide snacks, tea, coffee, and water.
  • Usually no full meals, so eat before or bring something for before the jam.
  • Keep all drinks out of the play areas and off the mats.
  • Sealed water bottles are fine in the play room as long as they stay off the mats.

Our House Rules apply at all events. The Rope Jam Rules add rope-specific guidance.

A few jam-specific highlights:

  • Anyone can ask anyone to tie. Be kind, be clear, and leave space for “no, thank you”.
  • Everyone is free to accept or decline for any reason. Respect answers without pushing.
  • Before you tie, talk about comfort, injuries, intensity, sexual touch, and safewords.
  • If you are new to rope, say so. Do not present yourself as more skilled than you are.
  • People newer to the scene may not know their limits or feel able to say no. Look for enthusiastic consent and non-verbal “no” signals such as turning away or freezing.
  • This is not the place for unsolicited teaching. You can ask “why did you do it that way?” after a scene, but do not assume you know better.

Sober events

  • Rope jams are sober events. Rope and altered states do not mix well.
  • Maison Tsuri Neko holds a zero-tolerance policy for intoxication at rope jams. People who are intoxicated cannot consent to tie or be tied.
  • If you arrive at one of our jams under the influence of alcohol or other drugs, you may be asked to leave.

Support and feedback

  • If something feels off, talk to us. We want everyone to feel safe and welcome.
  • There is an anonymous feedback form available.
  • If you feel uncomfortable at a rope jam or afterwards, or if you want to talk about something that happened, you can speak to a host at the event or reach out through our contact channels.
