Kinbaku Fundamentals: The Gote Shibari / 'Box Tie'
The gote shibari/takatekote shibari is perhaps the most iconic tie of Japanese-style rope bondage. It's beautiful,intricate, and highly versatile.
In this three-hour workshop, we'll take a detailed look at the two-rope gote shibari/ takatekote shibari, focusing on precise rope positioning, tension, & several types of frictions. We'll also examine anatomy & safety issues associated with this tie, and learn tips & tricks for tying fluidly & with connection. Finally, we'll take a look at some of the possibilities around 'using up' the remaining rope in decorative ways (kazari).
Prerequisite: You should come to this course with prior, solid familiarity in basic rope bondage skills, especially the single-column tie. It is definitely appropriate for all genders, sexual orientations, and body types!
To ensure personal attention to each participant, class size will be limited to 20 people. Don't have a partner? We'll do our best to pair up solo students. Due to the small class size, early registration is strongly recommended.
Clothing & Equipment: Please bring 3-4 25'-30' pieces of bondage rope, 5-6mm in diameter, and a blanket or yoga mat to sit & tie on. You should wear clothing comfortable to tie in.
