Max offers private instruction to individuals, couples and small groups.
If you're new to bondage, structured curricula are available to cover basic and intermediate skills. These sessions include information about style, technique, and safety.
If you prefer, an instructional session can be tailored to your interests and needs. While bondage is a common focus, Max can also teach many other BDSM skills to include building D/S relationships, basic flogging and single-tailing, temporary piercing and various kinds of sensation play.
Because these are private lessons, we'll adjust the pace and content of the instruction to make sure you get the most value for your investment. These sessions are all about you, and Max is committed to giving you value for your time and money.
Most instruction is done at Max's studio in Seattle, and the rates on this page are based on that location. If you would like to schedule another location, please contact Max for rates and terms.
Personalized
Instruction for 1, 2 or 3 People
Fee: $70 / hour, 2 hour minimum
These sessions are for individuals, couples and threesomes, and are individually tailored to your skill level and special interests.
A two-hour "Fundamentals" lesson can easily be done without a practice partner. More advanced instruction generally requires a practice partner.
Fee: $125 / hour, 2 hour minimum
If you don't have a regular bondage partner – or if you'd prefer to practice without your regular partner present – Max can generally supply a practice partner.
Max's practice partners have substantial experience being bound and will be able to provide valuable feedback to facilitate your learning.
Note that these partners are available only for bondage practice – no other BDSM activities are allowed.
$350 for 2-1/2 hours
A picture is worth a thousand words - and a live demonstration is worth even more.
If you learn best by example, this may be the best choice for you - a 45 minute bondage demonstration, followed by a 1-1/2 hour lesson.
You'll have a chance to watch a bondage scene - start to finish, right up close. And you'll have a chance to talk to the bottom about their experience, before you start your lesson.
Email Max at Max @ TechBound.net for more information or to schedule a lesson.
Please include your desired scheduling parameters and a few words about your bondage experience.
Don't forget to specify what type of lesson you'd like -

Gift certificates are available too - give someone a bondage lesson for their birthday, for Valentine's Day or for a special occasion.
Certificates are good for one year from date of issuance.
To give you a feel for how a private lesson can go, here are some reviews and comments from previous students:
Here are two bondage lesson reviews posted on Matt's "Sex with Matt" blog:
Max's partner, Mistress Matisse, is highly biased but she calls Max "one of the best riggers in the country".
And here are some post-lesson comments emailed to Max over the last few years:
Thanks Max. You are a fantastic teacher and made us very comfortable. We were completely blown away. Will be getting back to you about next dates, soon.
I would like to thank you for the instruction yesterday. I thoroughly enjoyed it and could have gone on for hours.
Thanks again for the lesson last week. We had a great time and we learned a lot. We have had a lot of fun with our new rope techniques.
We had a very intense night after we left your place. Thanks so much for your expert coaching. It was a truly unforgettable night.
