Event Details

For Nawashi Kanna aesthetics and patterns are what comes after deeply connecting to your partner und giving them sweet consensual torment, delicious suffering and sweet relief. In Kanna’s school of rope / Kanna-ryu every rope, every placement, every tension and action should have an intention that the person tying is controlling.

In this 4-class-series you will be introduced to the fundamentals of Kanna-ryu/ Kanna style. By going back and (re)-discovering the basic shibari patterns of Kanna-ryu, you will learn the fundamental principles, reasons and intentions of tying, along with multiple options and variations. Kanna & their long time tying partner Kagura will go deep into the underlying principles, theory and historical culture of their style.

After learning these principles they will move into variations and show how to play with principles, patterns and how to combine each according to your intention, need and body.

This series of 4 classes will give you deep knowledge of line management, placement, tension etc. with the purpose of creating, maintaining and controlling the conditions of your rope scene, it’s mood and atmosphere for yourself and your rope partner. Attending all 4 sessions is highly recommended but not obligatory.
