Shibari Self Tie Soirée (suitable for complete beginners)

À propos de cet événement

Do you want to get started with Shibari but don't know where to start?

𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐢𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞: 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐒𝐄𝐋𝐅!

In an intimate and safe setting, we will learn how to use rope as a self love practice. Noana will guide you through the process of using rope on your own body and explain some of the basic technical aspects necessary to start tying yourself on the floor. Then, we will go into a deep collective self tying session together, because the real magic lies not just in the techniques, but in the full embodied experience.

This evening is not just a workshop, it is a soirée that tickles all of the senses (touch, taste, smell), a journey through our bodies, a doorway into our sensuality, into love.

𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧

- Ropes will be provided but if you have your own set of ropes, do bring them!
- Wear something that is tight fitting. Lingerie/underwear is also welcome if that feels comfortable and you would rather experience the rope directly on your skin.
- This event is for women and non-binary people only.
- All ages are welcome.
- The workshop will be hosted in English or Dutch dependent on the participants' preferred language, but Noana speaks both so translation is always possible!

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐒𝐡𝐢𝐛𝐚𝐫𝐢?

Shibari is a Japanese form of bondage art, which involves the intricate and artistic tying of ropes around the body. Shibari has the ability to put both rigger and receiver in deeply meditative states.

Shibari is full of beautiful paradoxes. Although the body is tied, the mind is freed up and becomes still. Where there is a discomfort present on the skin, there is also the opportunity for deep acceptance.

𝐀𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐍𝐨𝐚𝐧𝐚

Noana is a Shibari artist from Amsterdam who emphasises the healing capacity and ritualistic nature of Shibari in her work. To her, rope is a way to connect the spiritual realms to the deep, earthy realms of the body. She has extensively used self tying on her own path to self love and wants to share what she has learned with a wider audience.
