SHIBARI CLASSES NOVEMBER

Tuesday November 7 + 21 + 28, 2023

The course Beginner with Previous Experience is directed at learning the basics of Shibari/Kinbaku technique. We start the class intuitively by following individual impulses with rope. After that, the main part of the evening we focus on systematic management of rope, body handling and safety principles: knots, wrapping and aestetic frictions. The material contains a wide range of harnesses for floor work and simple semi-suspension. It is strongly inspired by shibari works of Japanese artists I learned from over the last fifteen years. There is time to switsch roles to better understand restriction from both the models perspective as well as the complex skill set of the rigger, in order to experience sexy phantasies and meditative ties.
