In our beginner’s workshop you will learn the foundations of shibari, a traditional Japanese form of rope bondage. We teach you the basic knots and frictions, give you a small repertoire of different harnesses, and also show you how to tie them to create emotionally charged experiences.
We hold beginner workshops a few times a year, and announce exact dates on our instagram page and in our telegram channel. All workshops are held in English or German, depending on the registrations, and will be led by two of our teachers.
For this workshop, you need to come with a tying partner. Don’t hesitate to contact us if you do not have a tying partner, we are happy to try and match you with another participant.
Switching is possible if you both want to tie.
You will get familiar with the history of shibari, taking care of your rope, consent and negotiation in shibari, and how to tie safely, avoiding discomfort and potential injury.
We will teach you the basic techniques used in shibari: The single and double column tie, the most important frictions, holding tension, handling rope efficiently, moving your partner while you tie, and how you can use these simple components to create a great session.
Once fundamental concepts are clear, we will move on to more advanced topics, showing a selection of classic shibari patterns to build your repertoire.
We emphasise a relaxed atmosphere without competition, pressure, or discrimination. In the rope, we are all equal.

What to wear:
What to wear:
The most important thing is to wear something that makes you feel comfortable. Athletic wear or other styles of clothing that don’t restrict movement are often ideal for tying and being tied in, while clothing that restricts movement, like corsets with boning or even tight jeans, can make doing rope more challenging.
