This weekend seems to have become Shibari Weekend. On Friday, there’s BOUND with special guests, Riccardo Wildties (Italy) and Gorgone (France), plus a great line up which includes WykD_Dave and Clover.

Out of curiosity to see how others do things, I was present at a beginners’ introductory class presented by a well-known figure on the scene, who I also know socially. Not long into the class, I was surprised to see him show a spread-eagled tie to a bed commencing with 4 or 5 wraps around …
Later this month, I will be off to Copenhagen Dojo for the Yukimura Haruki class to find out what the grandmaster of the art of newaza can teach me. I fully expect this to be one of those reminders that come just when you think you are beginning to learn something about a subject. No …

Don’t forget The Knot is on this Sunday, my mentored shibari peer workshop (click here for more info and to book). This event is unlike the usual rope peer workshop we find in the UK, which can have over 100 people. Although this can be great from a social point of view, it can be …
I know everyone is dying for news of the 2012 festival. We have been hanging on to see if Kinoko is available this year but plans to open a new club mean he is unable to commit. However, the latest from him during his classes in Rome is that he will do all he can …
