SUMMARY:Flat Suspension
DESCRIPTION:  \nIn this workshop we will be exploring how to practice uplines and understand suspension positions without lifting off the ground. Instead\, we will be building shapes lying on the ground using points to the side to mimic the feeling of suspension. This class is suitable for those who are familiar with basic harnesses and frictions on the floor. \nIf you are new to uplines you are also welcome to join this workshop. Flat suspension can be easily recreated at home using heavy furniture or a bed frame. \n  \nFormat: hands-on workshop \nMinimum knowledge level: basic knots and frictions. e.g single column tie\, double column tie and half hitches \nMaximum amount of participants: 8 pairs\, passive watching is welcome. \nWhat to bring: 4-8 ropes \nConstellations: all constellations welcome \nAccessibility: we will be sitting on the floor but other ways to sit more comfortably can be arranged

SUMMARY:Semenawa Series
DESCRIPTION:Semenawa is a concept in Shibari that is often misunderstood. \nSemenawa is often translated as ‘torture’ rope\, however\, a more accurate term might be to describe it as ‘torment’. The intention is for both the rigger and model to be consciously exploring suffering through rope\, however\, what can make it difficult to grasp is whether or not the suffering should feel pleasurable. Semenawa is often seen as something that must feel painful\, but suffering is not exclusive to pain. \nIn this two-part series\, we will be exploring the subtle nuances in creating a tormenting experience without compromising on our limits and safety measures. The focus will be on stirring up the inner torment of the individual experience\, rather than applying pain. \nPart 1 (July 11th\, 2023\, 7 pm-9.30 pm) \nIn this class\, hua hua will introduce her own personal approach to Semenawa\, which she’s developed through her studies with Naka Akira and integrated with my other practices. Semenawa is a state of mind rather than a style. hua hua will share how we can identify this state of mind through positions\, timing\, rope handling\, and communication. The workshop will end with a demonstration of Semenawa play with space for feedback and questions afterward. \nPart 2: (July 18th\, 2023\, 7 pm-9.30 pm) \nIn the second class of this series\, we will be focusing on the practice of patience and endurance in creating a Semenawa experience. The class will include exercises that can be tied on the floor without a suspension point. Students may choose to tie along with the class\, however\, this is only optional. \n  \nEvent Details \nDate & Time:  July 11th and 18th\, 2023\, 7 pm- 9.30 pm CET (Berlin time) \nFormat: workshop/demo \nAudience:  LGBTQIA+ & FRIENDS \nLanguage: English \nMinimum Knowledge level: Basic Knowledge of Shibari e.g some context of the culture and consent practices\, experience with simple knots and frictions if they wish to tie along \nWhat to bring:  Rope if you would like to tie along\, and participate with a partner. \nSolo or Partnered:  All constellations. The ticket price is per person. \nClass recording: Yes. The session will be recorded and available for 14 days after the workshop. The participants will not be recorded. \n  \nAccessibility Note \nThe workshop and discussion are held in spoken English with automated captions in English which are provided by Zoom. Communication within the class can be had via chat but also people can come on mic and speak. If you participate in this workshop and need more assistance\, i.e. someone reading out the chat\, etc\, please message us at info@karada-house.de beforehand.  \n  \nWho is this event for? \nLGBTQIA+ 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. \nFriends 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. \nWhen 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. \nFriends 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. \nIf you cannot afford the ticket price (even the solidarity price)\, please send us a message. We will find a way.

SUMMARY:Gender Neutral Objectification
DESCRIPTION:Objectification has always been a widely popular fetish within the BDSM scene\, especially in connection with bondage. However\, the common depiction is mainly associated with the objectification of women\, which can contribute to gender inequality and body dysmorphia. In this workshop hua hua and her model will explore objectification through Shibari\, looking at the aesthetics of the body\, dehumanization\, and immobilization. \n  \nEvent Details \nDate & Time:  June 1st\, 2023\, 7 pm- 9 pm CET (Berlin time) \nFormat: lecture/demo \nAudience:  LGBTQIA+ & FRIENDS \nLanguage: English \nKnowledge level: Participants who would like to tie along with the practical part of the workshop should be able to the fundamentals (single and double column tie\, a few basic frictions) If they are not tying along there are no prerequisites! \nWhat to bring:  Rope if they would like to tie along\, and participate with a partner. \nSolo or Partnered:  All constellations. Ticket price is per person. \nClass recording: Yes. The session will be recorded and available for 14 days after the workshop. The participants will not be recorded. \n  \nAccessibility Note \nThe workshop and discussion are held in spoken English with automated captions in English which are provided by Zoom.

SUMMARY:Responsibility Rope
DESCRIPTION:Responsibility is an important concept that needs to be paid attention to in a rope scene\, particularly when playing with Semenawa. This is actually the direct translation of the Chinese term for Semenawa ‘责绳’ so it creates an interesting perspective on how Semenawa can be a practice of exploring responsibility; over your own body\, limits\, actions\, and over others. \nIn this lecture/demonstration\, Hua Hua and her model will share the importance of accountability and autonomy when dealing with suffering in rope\, ending the class with a demonstration of their own semenawa style. \n  \nDetails: \nFormat: lecture & demonstration \nMinimum Knowledge Level: no prior knowledge needed\, prior interest in semenawa is encouraged \nWhat to Bring: – \nSolo or Partnered: any constellation \nClass recording: yes \nThis class will be recorded (only the facilitator\, not the participants) and is available for ticket holders for 30 days after the event. \n
