The first meeting of The Knot was a great success with quite a few familiar faces and some new ones. It ran very much as I intended with a lot of creative trying by the more experienced riggers and the newbies learning a lot. Jenis and Nina were a great asset as they were also able to help people when I was otherwise engaged. I was happy to see that the female rigging contingent were well represented as this is an area that I would like to encourage as one comment I hear a lot is “Why don’t we see more women tying men?”. This is wholly justified, as although there are a number of female performers, few seem to tie men.
Both the main room and the tatami room were busy right up to the official end time and well beyond as the girls seemed reluctant to stop. V, one of the instigators of Hitching Bitches, was still engrossed an hour later. The one question of everyone’s lips was “When is the next one?”. The answer is Sunday, March 18.
“Thanks for a great day, we loved it cant wait till next one”
“Just wanted to thank you for running The Knot today: I really enjoyed it. Sorry for staying a bit longer than I should have.”
“We both found it fantastic and left very very buzzy! I still can not believe i have done my first suspension at the end of the day!! That was a nice cherry!! 😀
Just cant wait for the next one!
Are you doing one next month?
And a big thanks to Nina and Jenis for being around, cool and very helpful!”
“Very nice meeting you (Nina) on Sunday at Bruce’s ..thanks for the advices you gave us , really useful!!!. I hope to see you around”
