What you'll do:

A private, one-on-one session designed specifically for couples wanting to explore rope together in a completely private setting — no group, no audience, just the two of you and an experienced instructor guiding you at your own pace. Whether you're brand new to rope or looking to deepen a practice you've already started, this session is tailored entirely around your comfort level and goals.

You Should Know:

• No prerequisites. No pressure. 

• If you’ve got rope, you’re welcome to bring it, but your Date Night lesson includes a Starter Kit of four lengths of rope to take home.

You Should Bring:

• Yourselves

• Clothes comfortable for light movement (Want more specifics? Check out this post: https://devilmaskstud.io/what-to-wear-for-shibari/)

• Curiosity and an open mind

Why we love it for your party:

• Fully private — no group setting, no observers, just you two and your instructor

• Tailored pace and content based on your specific comfort level and goals

• A genuinely unique date night or anniversary experience unlike anything else in LA

• Fully clothed, consent-forward, and beginner-friendly — no experience necessary

• Taught by instructors with 45+ combined years of experience

• A judgment-free, welcoming space — proudly queer-owned and operated

• Our private lesson students have glowing words for us on Google:

  • "[Our instructor] was incredibly thoughtful in talking to us to find out what would best serve us for our learning styles and desires. [The] instructions were very clear. I was able to very quickly understand everything [they showed] us and practice it. Very happy for our experience and will certainly be back."
