Event Details

For LEARNING SHIBARI PATTERNS participants will be encouraged to practice, drill and study essential patterns for floor play and suspension. René will focus each class on a specific cluster e.g. upper body ties, leg ties, hip harnesses etc. and teach you not only the patterns but also why they are designed that way, what they are good for and how to do them safely. Participants are invited to attend with an appropriate play companion – spaces are limited to 6 pairs only.

After the training we will provide open space for participants to tie and play.

Who is this event for?

LGBTQIA+ describes the full spectrum of non-mainstream sexual orientation and/or gender identity, meaning: lesbian, gay, bisexual, pansexual, transgender, non-binary, genderqueer/fluid,

Friends describes 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 safe(r) space and its marginalized community.

When you consider yourself a friend you show acknowledgement to and are respectful of everyone’s self expressions 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 pro-actively work and strive to be good friends and allies to marginalized people.
