Saturday gives you the tools that make shibari fun — or intense, or meditative, or horny, or whatever flavor of rope you want to create. We will get you started with the most essential techniques: lark’s head, single column tie, clean wrapping, managing tension, and staying safe. Once those basics are in place, we spend the rest of the day putting them to use in playful, intuitive ways.
We’ll explore freestyle tying and improvisation to loosen the pressure of “doing it right.” Through one-rope exercises, wrapping, unwrapping, and re-wrapping bodies, you’ll learn to follow curiosity instead of memorizing patterns. Because rope isn’t static — people move — we’ll also practice guiding and responding to movement through levers, spirals, and simple transitions like sitting to standing or shifting limbs mid-tie.
Along the way, we dive into the emotional and psychological effects of rope: how body positions, pacing, tension, and proximity can shift headspace and shape intention. With just a few simple ties, you’ll learn to create sessions that feel impactful, intimate, and expressive.
LGBTQIA+ describes the full spectrum of non-mainstream sexual orientation and/or gender identity, meaning: lesbian, gay, bisexual, pansexual, transgender, non-binary, genderqueer/fluid, queer, intersex, asexual, aromantic, agender.
Friends describe people of any and all kinds of gender and sexual identities who are aware and respectful of the necessity, needs, and boundaries of a queer space and its marginalized community.
When you consider yourself a friend you show acknowledgement to and are respectful of everyone's self-expression and do not assume, presume or project non-consensual ideas onto others. You actively request and use people's chosen pronouns. You remain mindful of the fact that Karada House is first and foremost a space for queer people that you are also invited to attend. You have a genuine concern for the well-being of LGBTQIA+ people and remain in awareness of heterosexual and gender-straight privileges.
Friends don't have to be perfect. None of us are. We request that we all proactively work and strive to be good friends and allies to marginalized people.
