Open Classes

SHIBARI CLASSES DECEMBER AND JANUARY

Tuesday December 5 + 12 + 19, 2023
Tuesday January 9 + 16 + 30, 2024

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.

– Please bring soft clothes and ropes if you have.
– You can register alone or with partner. If you want to join alone it’s possible to pair up with each other. We will try to connect single participants a few days befor the workshop, but can’t always guarantee. Many thanks for patience and understanding.
– At the beginning we suggest regular participation and practice to create a solid technical base.
– Costs 30 Euro per person.

SECRET PRACTICE

There is always something i like to play with in class. For the last two years, after baby pause it was mostly about inner states. Maybe some standing leg or tip of the shoulder blade thingy. But eventually returning to breathing and trying to recalibrate mentally. I much enjoy ballet technique for the sake of visiting the same old in new (life) phases  – less for the sake of mastering. Big thanks Jo Siska for great teaching, patience and for creating a divers dance space.
