Values

Values by which we govern our events...

We ask that you remain as quiet as possible and that conversations always be cordial, whether during tie-ups or in the social area. We favor the use of neutral pronouns, we are queer-friendly and anti-fat shaming. We appreciate the responsible use of disposable items and you are welcome to bring your own mugs and bottles. Please keep the space clean and tidy. Our events are intended to be calm and relaxed, but we have rules and general guidelines that must be followed: - At rope jams and workshops, full nudity is not allowed and we recommend wearing comfortable clothing. - Perching on the rings or bamboo poles is not allowed. - We have ropes and cutting equipment on site. Ropes are limited and we provide 2 ropes per pair, which are not suitable for suspension techniques. - Photography or filming during events is not allowed without the express permission of the organization (exceptions apply*). - Outdoor shoes are not allowed inside the space; you can leave your items in the cloakroom. - Alcohol and recreational drugs are not allowed in the space. If a person is found to be under the influence, they will be asked to leave. - We reserve the right of entry. We may ask anyone who does not comply with our values, conditions, or mission to leave

If you need help, please speak to a KNOTY member. We remind you that we have a safe word for the space that should be used if necessary.
Events with further deep kinky structure may have their own conditions, so please read the conditions for each event. If you have any questions or need further clarification, please ask a KNOTY member or contact us by email.
