Monthly Shibari classes suitable for complete beginners
Welcome to the world of Shibari!
Shibari is the term generally used to define Japanese rope bondage. Although it has many similarities to western bondage (the B of BDSM), Shibari is more centred around the communication between partners and creating an entire process, where ropes are the main player of the scene and not just a tool. It is rooted in eroticism but has evolved to become a much more expansive with many different approaches ranging from s£x play to an artistic practice. For many years this culture was hidden in the underground, this workshop is here to give you a point of entry and start your journey with ropes.
This monthly event is dedicated to anyone who would like to learn about Shibari, giving you a safer space to discover whether you want to be tied, tie others or both! These workshops will give everyone the tools to get started in their practice safely, no matter which role they prefer to take on, switching is also permitted and encouraged even.
As a safer space tolerance, open mindedness and empathy are key values of this class. As long as you are committed to shibari is a tool to connect different bodies, souls, experiences and generations among oldest to youngest.
We facilitate cross-racial, cross-gendered, hybrid spaces. However, queer people of color have priority to join and take a lead in these workshops. So, if you are a white-identified person, we kindly ask you to be aware of the space you are arriving at Lola Lieven.
You do not need to bring ropes as they will be provided, however if you have your own you are welcome to bring them along!
We recommend coming frequently to this class so that you can develop muscle memory and become fluent with the basics.
