SHIBARI BASICS PARTIAL SUSPENSION: FIRST STEPS UP
In der Fesselkunst im japanischen Stil gibt es die Hängebondage, bei der die Gefesselten mittels Seilen an einem Haken an der Decke oder an einem Balken emporgezogen und aufgehängt werden. Was viel können verlangt und spektakulär aussieht, bietet auch eine besondere sinnliche Erfahrung, der wir uns in diesem Kurs mit Teilhängungen annähern. Wir vermitteln dazu das technische Basiswissen und entdecken in unterschiedlichen Übungen und Fesselmustern das restriktive, spielerische und ästhetische Potential dieser Form…
SHIBARI BASICS - INTRO DAY

QUEERING BONDAGE JAM ZÜRICH - SHIBARI IM SIHL13 - with Newbie Intro
Fesselspiele nehmen allzuoft heteronormative Formen an – was auch fein ist, aber wir wollen probieren, wie man erfinderisch auch mal was ganz anderes erleben kann. Queering - als Verb - steht für die Lust an einem ganzen Spektrum an: hinterfragen, erfrischen, sichtbarmachen, spielen, irritieren, feiern, ausprobieren, verflüssigen, ermutigen, erweitern, erfinden, solidarisieren, vermischen, zu sich stehen, aneignen, werden, verwandeln... Bei den QUEER BONDAGE JAMS wollen wir deswegen der Kreativität ganz generell mehr Raum geben, indem wir…
(AN)OTHER INTIMACY - SENSORY EXPLORATIONS
Intimacy outside of fixed patterns and conventions is fantastic, creative and unpredictable - that's what makes it so appealing, but also quite complex and challenging. In the (AN)OTHER INTIMACY workshops, we want to embark on this venture! The SENSORY EXPLORATIONS course is dedicated to the sensuality of our bodies - seeing, hearing, smelling, touching and tasting. We will move through the weekend in these five modes, guided by the concept of the beginner's mind, which refers to an inner attitude of openness, curiosity and the beneficial absence of preconceptions or judgments. Together we will rediscover our sensorium, as if we were experiencing the fabulous world of...

JANNA SCHNEEWITTA REHBEIN: TEMPLE OF SORROW - LOSSES OF THE YEAR
A series of TEMPLE OF SORROW is coming to an end, just like the year itself. The TEMPLE OF SORROW LOSSES OF THE YEAR invites you to reconnect with the past and mourn what may not have happened, what may have been lost and broken. Perhaps wishes have remained unfulfilled, relationships have become difficult or...
TANTRA IN MOTION
Dieser Workshop bringt Bewegung in die klassische Tantramassage. Wir zeigen und üben, wie durch unterschiedliche Bewegungselemente der sinnliche Spannungsbogen entwickelt werden kann. Fordernde Dehnungen und kraftvolle Umarmungen, dynamische Positionswechsel und die gewandte Nutzung der Schwerkraft lassen aus dem Massagegeschehen einen horizontalen Tanz werden. Klare, präsente Führung des gebenden Parts sowie lust- und hingabevolles Geführtwerden des empfangenden Parts sind wesentliche Elemente…

(AN)OTHER INTIMACY - SLOWNESS & INTENSITY
Intimität abseits von festen Mustern und Konverntionen ist fantastisch, kreativ und unvorhersehbar – das macht sie so reizvoll aber auch ziemlich komplex und herausfordernd. In den (AN)OTHER INTIMACY Workshops wollen wir uns auf dieses Wagnis einlassen! Der Kurs ON SLOWNESS & INTENSITY macht die Langsamkeit zum leitenden Konzept unserer Explorationen. Sie ermöglicht, was wir erleben, nicht nur differenzierter unter die Lupe zu nehmen und in viel mehr Facetten und Qualitäten zu erfassen. Vielmehr wird die Langsamkeit selbst zu einem Instrument der Intensivierung – go sloooooow, baby! Mithilfe von Meditationselementen und Atemarbeit entschleunigt suchen und untersuchen wir in dem Workshop auf spielerische Weise Begegnungen und…

SHIBARI BASICS FLOORWORK: CREATIVITY & PLAY
This workshop - which, combined with the Intro Day, is suitable for beginners - focuses on the many creative and playful possibilities of rope bondage. Ropes on the body and their tied forms are in themselves a special experience and aesthetically interesting. We want to go a little further by exploring the creative and emotional potential of power dynamics and sharpening our presence in the creation of playful scenes.

WINTA BONDAGE JAM ZURICH - SHIBARI IM SERRAT(U)S - with Newbie Intro
Rope Bondage is for everyone! However, this has not necessarily been the case with our usual Bondage Jam, because often things are quite conventional and heteronormative - and that does not fit for everyone.Therefore, there is now the WINTA BONDAGE JAM!WINTA stands for "Woman, Inter, Nonbinary, Trans, Agender" and this special Jam is primarily about creating a space where people who identify as WINTA can simply be among themselves. So basically it's very simple: people who don't see themselves as WINTA , please stay away from the event.
FILIPPA FRICK: HAPTOLOGY - EXPLORATIONS OF TOUCH, INTENTION & INNER ATTITUDE
Feel me, feel me...? - The tactile and haptic sensuality of our bodies puts us in a lifelong and uninterrupted tactile connection with what surrounds us - and with ourselves. Touch is essential, vital and fundamental to who we are and what we are, how we encounter the world and other beings in it. But as central as it is to our identity and our coexistence with other people, in our everyday consciousness it usually appears more as a necessity - to achieve a goal, to fulfill a formality, to make a difference.

ON FLOGGING & OTHER IMPACT PLAY
Der Workshop bietet eine Einführung in das Flogging und andere Formen des Implact Plays, bei der wir neben Techniken und Fragen der Sicherheit auch die physischen und emotionalen Prozesse von Gebenden und Empfangenden, sowie das Verhältnis von Schmerz und Lust in den Blick nehmen. Wir schärfen unsere Wahrnehmung für die dynamischen Bezüge, die Flogging und Impact Play zwischen Körper und Geist und zwischen den Beteiligten herstellt. Körperbewusstsein und Raumwahrnehmung, Bewegung und Rhythmus, Impuls und Resonanz, Atmung und Präsenz – wir betrachten das Spiel unter vielfältigen Aspekten …
A WAX PLAY CEREMONY
Ruhe und Schwingung, Stille und Klang, Kühle und Hitze… Wir entdecken das Spiel mit Kerzenwachs als eine meditative Erfahrung, im Geben wie im Empfangen. Wir stimmen zunächst Körper und Geist ein, sensibilisieren unsere Wahrnehmung, werden offen und rezeptiv. Schließlich gestalten wir gemeinsam ein Ritual in dem wir uns viel Zeit für diese intensive…

SHIBARI BASICS FLOORWORK: SURRENDER & CONNECTION
Dieser Workshop – der kombiniert mit dem Intro Day für Anfänger’innen geeignet ist –befasst sich mit Langsamkeit, Atmung und Körperbewusstsein als Basis für den aufmerksamen und vertrauensvollen Kontakt zwischen den Fesselnden. Mit etwas Körperarbeit entwickeln wir unser anatomisches Verständnis und setzten Grundlagen, um andere Körper zu lesen und Seile als Medium für non-verbale Kommunikation zu begreifen. So können wir es wagen sanft zwischen Komfortzone und Grenzerfahrung zu oszillieren.

TAMANDUA & BRIKI – BEYOND SUSPENSION BASICS – Part II of the “PROGRESSIVE SHIBARI SERIES”
For the second instalment of our progressive shibari series, we go beyond the very basics of suspension. With the basics already covered, we are ready for more tools and insights to bring to our tying journey. In this workshop, we will take our first steps into some of the more complex factors that determine a ties shape and impact, especially in the context of suspension. What do we need to master, beyond securely attaching, pulling up, and…

Contents will include detailed technical explanations of the ties different parts. How they function, especially under load, and how to manage …
