Kanna & Kagura

26. February 2022, 1:45 pm – 3:45 pm

Adaptive Suspension & Semenawa for people with disabilities and everyone else with ease!

This class will guide you to develop a supported and adaptive chair-based semenawa & suspension. If you or your partner has some kind of disability for suspension or floorwork, this is good for you to discover something fun! ♬︎♡ Even if you have a non-disabled body, this class is also for you!

Especially for suspension beginners, bigger bodies and self-suspensioners, or people who want to take pictures, this seated adaptive class is gentle and suitable! We don’t want to exclude or discriminate against anyone in rope. Rope has no gender or borders, and Rope should be for Every Bodies! Kanna-ryu has many shibari patterns, but it’s all about adaptation to your partner’s body and limitations, your own tastes, and moods.

Shibari/Kinbaku is not all about suspension, but suspension is possible for anybody who wants it☆

Come sit with us and explore rope practice with the chair♪♪
