Since 20 years Dasniya practices Japanese Shibari/Bondage stretching performative aesthetic categories and making shibari accessible to a wider and intersectional community. 
She combines pure Japanese techniques (currently Akira Naka inspired) with an unconventional anarchic approach. Often weaving objects or organic material into the tying process. Or, using restriction with ropes as movement strategy, especially for performances. Dasniya’s teaching is informed by her experience as rigger, shibari model, dancer and choreographer.
Melting schools and philosophies from many teachers such as Chanta Rose, Kasumi Hourai, Arisue Go, Tamandua, Akira Naka, Iroha Shizuki, Norio Sugiura, Gestalta and Kamijoo Saki.
She regularly develops workshop concepts at ‘Haus Sommer’, her atelier in Uferhallen Kulturwerkstatt and for Karada House Berlin.
She taught at ImPulsTanz Vienna, Lismore’s Queer-Community & Critical Path/Australia, Braunschweig University of Art and for many theatre production in Berlin and abroad. Topics of the workshops vary depending on context and the participants between technical aspects of shibari rituals, and explorations of restricted movement.
‘Sculpting or moving with ropes I strongly enjoy the handcraft in itself, combined with sensual attention towards my partner or the bondage material. I strive for the sensual auratic presence and a transformative force taking over.‘

Haus Sommer is a small atelier located in Uferhallen Kulturwerkstatt in Berlin-Wedding, with 7 suspension-points, bamboo suspension, dance floor, mats and tea kitchen. Please bring comfortable clothes and ropes if you have.
