Since we have had quite a lot of requests for Saturday group classes, and in particular for beginners, Nina and I have decided to reintroduce them from February.
Anyway, this Saturday there will be a beginners’ class for those who want to tie and connect with rope using Japanese techniques by Esinem and Nina Russ. This goes beyond making pretty patterns and begins to explore the real power of shibari. For more details on classes and my teaching, see Tuition.
An unique advantage of my classes is that Nina Russ, my assistant, has a lot of experience as a model and is a very talented rigger so can add an extra dimension to them. She knows exactly how the ties feel so can provide valuable tips on optimising them based on both first hand experience and on world-class tuition through attending courses by Japanese masters Yukimura Haruki, Kinoko Hajime and Kazami Ranki…and, of course, me.
All classes will be from 10:30am-4:00pm, unless otherwise stated. The fee will be £85 per rigger with partner/model.
