Event Schedule:
Shibari 101: Introduction to Shibari for Beginners (10 am - 12 pm)
Dive into the enchanting world of Shibari with our Introduction to Shibari for Beginners. Whether you're alone or with a partner, this course will guide you from ground zero to understanding the fundamentals and experiencing the beauty of Japanese-style rope bondage. Explore safety and consent principles, rope handling skills, essential Shibari knots and ties, and an elegant Shibari figure.
Shibari 102: Advanced Beginners Workshop (1 pm - 3 pm)
It's necessary to come with a partner for this advanced beginners workshop. Delve into the artistry of Shibari by learning two intricate patterns that involve tying hands. Participants are expected to have basic tying knowledge, including a single column tie, double column tie, and familiarity with at least one pattern.
Important Notes about workshops:
- Timeliness is crucial. Please arrive at least 15 minutes early to uphold the quality of instruction.
- Language : The course can be bilingual, conducted in both French and English. Let us know in advance if you need translation into French.
- Ropes : Bring your own ropes (two 8m-10m, 5-6mm diameter, preferably natural ropes like Jute or Hemp). 2-3 Ropes of 8m are needed for the Shibari 102 workshop.
