Andy Buru: Surrender (Sky)

Surrender (Sky) is an invitation into faith, to let go and to fall—trusting that one will be caught by life, by love, by wonder, by another. Surrendering brings great pleasure when one learns to let go of controlling the body, the emotions, and the ego and devote oneself to something greater.

The sky variation works with an external anchoring point, like a pillar, beam or piece of furniture. It invites the intensity of gravity and the exploration of physical distance with emotional intimacy, no previous experience of suspension is required the external hanging points are used to demonstrate different concepts for bondage.

The weekend is facilitated by Andy Buru, whose gift lies in guiding participants into deeply embodied states of trust, sensation, and presence. Together, the journey unfolds through 60% rope play, 20% S&M, 10% ritual, and 10% party—creating a balance of exploration and celebration. Participants often describe the experience as vulnerable, trusting, and quietly powerful, leaving them more open in connection and more resilient in life.

Sex Positive Space:

Basically, it means welcoming all forms of sexuality, and very importantly, that includes no sexuality. It’s a sex-positive space, not a sex-mandatory one. It includes all forms of orientation, like genders, sexes, practices, kinks, devotions, or fetishisations. Simultaneously, it’s not a “safe space” nor a separatist space for any one kind of orientation. It praises the idea from BDSM that “Your Kink Is Not My Kink, But Your Kink Is Okay”, which means if another person’s sexual orientation is triggering to you, then you move yourself elsewhere. But, still, everyone is submitting themselves to a shared and often fairly particular theme, and if you deviate too far from that theme, you’ll likely and lovingly be told so.
Consent:

While consent, safer sex, and trauma awareness are paramount in Andy's group processes, he doe's not offer a beginner-friendly nor theoretical introduction to the topic, like twenty good questions to ask when engaging with a new play partner, extensive self-inquiries on knowing what you want and how to communicate that, or learning how to interact with an unknown body for the first time. Don’t get me wrong, you’ll get to practice these skills in every exercise, but he will assume you already have a basic knowledge of them. Instead, he aims to help you dive deeper into these often emotionally fraught waters of intimacy and not knowing. One that, in an embodied way, balances artfully and respectfully between safety and bravery.
