SUMMARY:Touch and Intention in Yukimura Style
DESCRIPTION:In Yukimura style\, ties can be simple and techniques are easy-ish to learn\, but the deeper elements can take a lifetime to master. Join Murasaki-san to explore how tension and touch transmit intention to your partner\, moving beyond aesthetics to focus on psychological connection and intimacy. \nThis class will have be “show\, don’t tell” -style with Murasaki demonstrating her masterful attention to details.

SUMMARY:Murasaki Haruan – Yukimura Ryu Masterclass
DESCRIPTION:This masterclass explores deeper layers of Yukimura-ryu through the practice of renbaku – a form of alternating rope work in which Murasaki and participating students take turns tying the same person. This format reveals the subtle shifts in emotional tone\, physical intention\, and energetic connection that emerge when different people engage with the same body\, the same rope\, and the same moment. \nRenbaku is not a performance\, but a shared process of learning through observation\, feeling\, and contrast. It invites deeper sensitivity to the changing relational dynamic between the person getting tied and the person tying and opens space for reflection – from all involved. People in ropes play an essential and active role in this learning format by attuning to and expressing the nuances they experience across multiple rope sessions. \nRather than introducing new forms or a catalogue of ties\, this weekend emphasizes continuing the basics at a deeper level. The workshop is not about “doing” more\, but about feeling more\, seeing more\, and refining presence\, responsiveness\, and intention. Renbaku is one of the most direct ways to study the emotional heart of Yukimura-ryu. \n\nFormat and Flow\nThe exact structure of the weekend will remain open\, allowing us to adapt to the group’s needs. Possibilities could include rotating renbaku sessions with multiple riggers\, focused study on transitions and emotional layering\, and group reflection after each practice. Students will be encouraged to tie actively\, people in rope should feel comfortable receiving rope from more than one person\, and observers are welcome to engage with the process through discussion and shared insight. \nThis masterclass is intended for those with prior experience in Yukimura-ryu or similar emotional rope styles. It is best suited to those wishing to deepen their sensitivity\, intuition\, and interpersonal expression through rope. \n  \nPrivate Lessons with Murasaki\nMurasaki Haruan will be with us in Berlin for two consecutive weekends. The first weekend (August 16–17\, 2025) will be a foundational Yukimura-ryu workshop. The second weekend (August 23-24\, 2025) will be a Masterclass including renbaku teachings. She will also host a renbaku salon (August 15) and offer private sessions at Karada House between the two weekends.

SUMMARY:Murasaki Haruan – Foundations of Yukimura Ryu
DESCRIPTION:This workshop offers a thorough introduction to the foundational principles of Yukimura-ryu\, with a particular focus on one-rope practices\, minimal rope expression\, and pose exploration. We will center our attention on the emotional and communicative aspects of Yukimura-ryu—what the style is and what it is not. Using simple techniques and minimal rope\, we aim to explore complex layers of intention\, presence\, and interaction. \nWhile the physical forms are modest in appearance\, the internal and relational depth is substantial. This workshop is best suited for those drawn to quiet intensity and nuanced emotional connection\, rather than for those seeking semenawa or performative rope styles. \nDay 1: Communicating with one rope\n– sharing ideas and thoughts about what Yukimura Ryu is and what it is not\n– concepts of Yukimura Ryu\n– communication with one rope \nDay 2: Applying the Basics\n– practicing the basics and adding more rope\n– applying our knowledge to typical poses found in this style\, i.e. one open leg\, kemono shibari etc. \nPrivate Lessons with Murasaki\nMurasaki Haruan will be with us in Berlin for two consecutive weekends. The first weekend (August 16–17\, 2025) will be a foundational Yukimura-ryu workshop. The second weekend (August 23-24\, 2025) will be a Masterclass including renbaku teachings. She will also host a renbaku salon (August 15) and offer private sessions at Karada House between the two weekends.

SUMMARY:Murasaki Haruan – Renbaku Salon
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an intimate salon-style evening with Murasaki Haruan\, centered around the practice of Renbaku – a unique approach to tying in which multiple riggers engage with a single person in ropes in sequence\, allowing emotional and energetic shifts to unfold. \nThis evening is not a traditional performance\, but rather a space for quiet observation\, reflection\, and learning. Murasaki will guide the experience\, either by taking part in the tying or offering live commentary as dynamics develop. Each session may explore how presence\, breath\, and subtle decisions in rope bondage shape the shared experience. \nThe evening will feature two tying sessions\, each lasting approximately 30–40 minutes\, with a short break and group reflection between them. Whether through quiet intensity or gentle connection\, this event offers a rare opportunity to witness and reflect on the depth of interactions that rope bondage can evoke. \nPrivate Lessons with Murasaki\nMurasaki Haruan will be with us in Berlin for two consecutive weekends. The first weekend (August 16–17\, 2025) will be a foundational Yukimura-ryu workshop. The second weekend (August 23-24\, 2025) will be a Masterclass including renbaku teachings. She will also host a renbaku salon (August 15) and offer private sessions at Karada House between the two weekends.

SUMMARY:Murasaki Haruan – Foundations of Yukimura Ryu
DESCRIPTION:Murasaki met Yukimura Haruki in 2003\, soon after her debut as a professional mistress\, when he came to the club where she worked to teach kinbaku. Shortly after\, she began assisting him on video shoots\, which allowed her to continue learning his style of tying. When Yukimura started to offer formal instruction in Yukimura-ryu in 2006\, she became one of his first students. She accompanied Yukimura’s overseas workshops as an assistant instructor in 2012 and 2014. In 2014\, she became the first Japanese and first female certified instructor of Yukimura-ryu. After the sudden passing of Yukimura Sensei in 2016\, she began to accept a limited number of students with a genuine interest in learning Yukimura-ryu. \n  \nFoundations of Yukimura Ryu is a thorough introduction into Yukimura style aiming to lay down the basics of this very distinct school of thinking and using rope. We will use less rope and the poses are simple in their technique. However\, their impact will be manifold and multilayered. This workshop is aimed at people interested in learning how to communicate with their partner through limited rope and emotions. It is not suitable for people expecting to explore semenawa or more performative styles. \nModelling for this workshop: René de Sans \n  \nDay 1: Communicating with one rope \n– sharing ideas and thoughts about what Yukimura Ryu is and what it is not\n– concepts of Yukimura Ryu\n– communication with one rope\n・Kubi nawa\n・Playing with a rope\n・One rope gote \nDay 2: Applying the basics \n– practicing the basics and adding more rope\n– applying our knowledge to typical poses found in this style\, i.e. one open leg\, kemono shibari etc. \n  \nThere are also limited spaces for private sessions available. \n  \nEvent Details \nDate & Time: October 26-27\, 2025\, 11-6 pm (lunch break included) \nFormat: Workshop \nAudience:  LGBTQIA+ & FRIENDS \nLanguage: Japanese with simultaneous English translation \nMinimum Knowledge Level:  \nFor the ones tying / riggers: \n– good understanding of fundamental techniques and concepts in Shibari / Kinbaku.\n– good understanding of suspension line management\, experience suspending\n– good understanding of rope safety\n– you must be  willing to learn about deeper understanding of communication with your partner \nFor the ones getting tied / models: \n– you must feel comfortable being tied in a gote\n– you must have some prior experience in suspensions\n– a good understanding of safety in shibari\, especially the difference between nerve compression and blood circulation loss\n– you must be open to expressing\, communicating\, and exploring vulnerabilities in rope\n– experience being suspended \nPlease note that switching is not possible due to time constraints and a cumulative teaching style. \nWhat to Bring:  \n– Jute ropes (6 lengths of ropes\, 5-6mm in diameter)\n– Safety shears or any other suitable cutting tools\n– Notepad and a pen\n– Comfortable clothing\n– Snacks and drinks\n– Aftercare items\n– Respect\, kindness\, and an open mind 🙂 \nTicket: 450 Euros.
