Rope Bondage for Newbies!
The Japanese art of bondage is a fascinating physical practice that offers a wide range of physical, mental and emotional experiences. Shibari has much in common with dance, yoga and meditation, and has a performative and a touching aesthetic dimension. The tied and the tied can shape their encounter in a variety of ways, in a trusting play with power and submission, in empathic communication and mutual devotion, in deep connection and intensity. An exciting body art that is worth exploring!
In the Shibari Basics - Intro Day we create an easy and playful introduction for beginners, and offer repetition for people who have already attended a beginners' course and want to refresh their knowledge. The focus is on the basics of tying up with ropes in the Japanese style.
This small workshop is intended as preparation for the Shibari Basics - Floorwork course on the following days. However, anyone who is not yet confident enough to take the long course, who would like to get to know Shibari for the first time and get a taste of it, is of course also very welcome!

FURTHER INFORMATION
NOTES ON THE EVENT
Singles as well as couples and all other constellations can register.
There is switching, i.e. the exercises are repeated so that all participants experience both being tied up and being tied up. Couples who do not wish to switch can remain in a fixed role allocation. Please let us know when you register if this is the case.
The aims of our events are to learn together as a group and support shared processes as well as personal development. Couples and all other types of partnerships or constellations are welcome, but you should be aware and open to the fact that the courses are not designed as partnership experiences and that we address each person as an individual. For example, in order to include all participants equally, we usually work with random partner combinations in the exercises. This means that there will be both the same and different gender combinations. Participants should generally be open to working with any person and any body. Exceptions can be discussed on a case-by-case basis.
Gender identity, sexual orientation, age, etc. are not criteria when registering and selecting participants.
We expect you to be careful, communicative, consensual and mindful, and we encourage you to respect your own boundaries and self-responsibility.
Hate speech will not be tolerated. Please bring "candy speech".
We reserve the right to ask participants to leave the workshop should their behavior be hurtful or too problematic, and we reserve the right to do so without explanation - though we will likely try to explain. Workshop fees would then be refunded in full. Further claims are then excluded.
We do our best to accommodate different needs, but our resources are limited. If in doubt, please contact us.
