Experience & education Kemo draws on their passion for rope and kink to create personalized experiences for the people they connect with. They have been studying rope for 8+ years and consider themself a perpetual student of rope, on top of being an educator. Kemo first took classes locally in the greater Los Angeles area, and later invested in 1-on-1 instruction from leaders in the craft. Today they continue their rope education by frequenting intensives and occasional private lessons, while remaining active in the local rope scene. Kemo can often be found attending rope and kink events, munches and jams. Rope artist & teacher An acclaimed performer, Kemo Burns has showcased their tying skills and participated in panels and interviews on stages across the country. Some notable events include Lightning in a Bottle, The Laugh Factory, Burning Man, DomCon LA & NOLA, multiple sexual health/BDSM summits and countless kinky play parties. Along with their annual workshops at LIB and the Burn, Kemo was a resident rope bondage instructor at Kink Collective OC in Santa Ana, CA throughout 2024. Today they can be found teaching pop-up workshops on topics such as negotiating a rope scene, arms-free harnesses, and rope for couples at local dungeons and collectives. Testimonials: “Loved the perfect mix of sadism & sensuality… I really appreciated how when I needed an adjustment, you took care of that right away. Being able to attend to the adjustments while also being able to still keep the scene going meant a lot to me… I loved how challenging this was and how communicative you were, both with verbal play & check-ins! Overall, super naturally flowing scene… at a great pace. I'm so excited for more." “You always give me unforgettable experiences in rope. Your skill, knowledge and unique creativity lead to the hottest and most satisfying scenes. Your care, attentiveness and willingness to adapt to the present moment help build beautiful spaces. Our ties are connective and personal... mixing pain and pleasure in the most delicious ways... leaving me wanting more.” “All the ties we did were lovely... it was easier for me to surrender than [the] few other ties that I've done before... I think that's overall due to the atmosphere you created with your style. It's very connected and makes me feel like I can let go easier and trust you as the rope artist. I especially appreciated the consistent checking-in during the tie. And I am eager to do more ties with ya!” "I haven’t been taking the best care of my body because of depression and overwhelm and it has manifested in gaining a lot of weight... my hormones have been all over the place so my usual libido has plummeted, which is just weird for me. So it feels strange and uncomfortable in my skin... You made me forget about all that when I was in your rope and I was able to remember what it feels like to be me." "This sesh made me reflect on how a lot of my times in rope have been still - which is so lovely, but… your movement meant a lot to my masochism… I loved how not only super verbal you were but how interactive and attentive you were… creating so many different positions."
