Good instructors are a valuable resource, but predatory ones can cause a lot of harm. I’m picky about who I recommend.
Shawn’s new in town, but has quickly made a name for himself in the men’s community. He has an ambitious teaching schedule and has done great work creating a community. Disclaimer: I haven’t taken a class from him (yet), but I’ve heard great things from people who have.

Disclaimer: I teach with Full Circle. With about a dozen instructors, we are Seattle’s largest kink teaching organization. We’re known for highly polished classes spanning a wide range of topics and for our world-class handouts.

The CSPC has a venerable history in Seattle and hosts a range of parties and other events. They currently aren’t doing many rope events, but I look forward to them adding more events in future. They don’t currently have their own venue.
