SUMMARY:Shibari Live Drawing
DESCRIPTION:Shibari Live Drawing differs from usual live drawing sessions in two major ways. For one\, the poses that can be reached with the help of ropes are very different from anything live drawing models could assume on their own\, e.g. suspensions.  \nOn the other hand\, those poses are short living\, which means that artists are not only met with unusual poses but also with less time to catch them.  \nIn two Shibari performances by different Shibari practitioners from the community\, the participants will meet different body types every time.  \nAll levels welcome\, all media welcome (photography is dependent on the performer’s individual wishes and only as long as it does not disturb the other participants).  \n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Orientation - For Newcomers to Kink
DESCRIPTION:New to kink and don’t know where to start? Interested in going to events but you don’t know how to behave\, what to wear\, what to do? You are definitely not alone and going to your first kink event can be quite intimidating. This barrier free newcomer orientation helps people who are brand new to take their first steps into the fascinating world of kink. \nWhat to expect\nPart 1 — The first part is a conversation with the participants about the world of kink: Etiquette online and offline\, expectations\, dress codes at events\, possibilities and some recommendations\, especially for single folks. \nPart 2 —We go through a few of the most common kinks: bondage\, impact\, Dominance/submission\, fetishes\, etc. Participants can see how it feels to hold a flogger or be tied up. \nPart 3 — The last part is all about the open questions of the participants: Where to go from here? What to do with this or that fantasy? How to find someone to play with? And many more questions answered.

SUMMARY:Shibari - Intermediate
DESCRIPTION:In this training\, we take the participants on a journey into the details of Shibari. Floorwork\, suspensions\, movement\, and communication are at the centre in this training series. \nEach month\, we develop the skills via one dedicated rope pattern\, which means that participants will work on the same pattern for a complete month. That helps solidifying the pattern as well as filling your toolboxes for elaborate and diverse rope scenes.

SUMMARY:Shibari - Beyond the Basics
DESCRIPTION:You’ve taken the Intro classes\, you know your single column from your double\, and you’re ready for more — but jumping straight into “Ropes: All Levels” can feel like a big leap.\nThis class is designed to meet you right in the middle. \nIn this session\, we slow things down and build the skills to help you become confident\, capable rope players. You’ll refine your techniques\, explore simple patterns with more intention\, and start working with connection\, communication. We offer a mix of hands-on guidance\, practical exercises\, and space to ask the questions that don’t quite fit into an intro class. \nPerfect for anyone who wants to solidify their fundamentals\, deepen their understanding\, and feel ready to step into our full range of rope offerings. \nCome build confidence\, control\, and creativity — one knot at a time.
