Since 2016, my footprint in the Scene has evolved as a rope top, learning and practicing the Japanese art of rope bondage known as Shibari and Kinbaku.  To many I am known as DK, short for Delilah Knotty, and to my new friends here, BLACKFISH, my performance and rope work persona.

This list below is a compilation of rope classes and teachings (almost comprehensive), as well as events I have attended over the last few years…serving as a reminder of what I have done to get here, and illustrate my pursuit to learn this unique and beautiful expression of bondage.
