In this workshop, we will discuss risks specific to combining ropes with needle play, provide our perspective on best practice regarding safety and hygiene, offer ideas for scene building, and provide a walk-through demonstration and guided exercises. We will mostly focus on theoretical knowledge, and participants will not be piercing during this workshop.

A predicament in Shibari describes a situation in which the tied person can choose between several body positions, each of which brings its own challenges or forms of strain. The goal is not necessarily pain, but rather to create a playful balance between different options and their consequences.
With Kirigami & Tenshiko
This workshop is designed for those who have been stuck at intermediate for a while and are struggling to break free from recreating the ties they’ve been taught. We will reflect on the concept of kata, trying to grasp the difference between "saigen" and "hanpuku" in order to help each participant find their voice.
