Ropespace: A Kinbaku Presentation & Skillshare

Curious about the captivating world of Kinbaku and Shibari? Join us for an intimate and educational evening with Kinbaku educators @Kinbakuartistmiki and Mir Mir as they guide you through the artistry, philosophy, and technique behind Japanese rope bondage.

The evening begins with a deep dive into the aesthetics and cultural roots of Kinbaku, followed by a live demonstration. Afterward, enjoy a hands-on rope skill share—a welcoming space to practice, explore, and connect. Looking for feedback? Miki and Mir Mir will be available throughout to answer questions and offer guidance.

All experience levels are welcome—from total beginners to seasoned rope enthusiasts. Come solo, with a partner, or with friends!
