onebrattysub
Portland rope teacher and community organizer who came to rope as a bottom in 2010, has co-hosted the Rope Arts Group and teaches beginner rope classes at Sanctuary Club and for the Portland Leather Alliance.
onebrattysub is the community name of a rope teacher and organizer in Portland, Oregon, who uses the same handle on FetLife and Instagram. Most of what is published about onebrattysub comes from a short self-written biography attached to a Portland Leather Alliance class in January 2026 and from event listings at Sanctuary Club, a Portland venue.
Background
According to that biography, onebrattysub joined the Portland kink community in 2010 and came to rope first as a bottom, going to every rope party and class on offer. Later in 2010 came volunteering and then work as a dungeon monitor, a role the biography says was carried out at small and large parties across the city. In the years that followed, onebrattysub served on the board of the Portland Leather Alliance, ran a munch for six years, offered tastings and led several community groups, among them a southwest Portland munch and the Rope Arts Group. The biography also names a current place on the core planning team of KinkFest.
Training
onebrattysub graduated in 2021 from Bondage Soup, a twelve-month in-person rope program in Portland. Its application page says the program began in 2018 and teaches tying partners as a cohort, with monthly intensives that build on one another, practice between sessions and a graduation performance. The biography describes present-day work as teaching 101 classes for the Rope Arts Group and Bondage Soup and turning up every month to help people learn rope safely.
Rope Arts Group
The Portland Leather Alliance’s community links page lists PRAG, the PDX Rope Arts Group, as hosted by Yitzhak and onebrattysub. The undated entry describes a group devoted to teaching and sharing knowledge about rope bondage, with monthly meetings for questions, demonstrations and practice, and a monthly party and workshop at The Catalyst. In 2025 the group held a daytime rope jam on the second Saturday of each month at Sanctuary Club, which it advertised as Portland’s only fully accessible rope jam, and opened every jam with a beginner class. The Sanctuary listings for July, August and October 2025 name onebrattysub and AngelicDragon as the teachers of that class, whose content was partly chosen by participants; the listings float single columns, an easy chest harness and futomomo as possible topics.
Other classes
At Sanctuary, onebrattysub also hosted the rope session of the club’s “BDSM 101: Foundations for Newcomers” series in May 2025, which was presented by ShesANatural. In January 2026 the Portland Leather Alliance held a Rope Bondage 101 evening there with onebrattysub and AngelicDragon as hosts, a beginners’ class that also invited newcomers to see what a club looks like with the lights up.
