About The Event
Exploring armbinders with RopeMarks
Basics of Shibari - Building block 3 - Strappado and elbow ties
This workshop will be presented in Dutch & English
Content:
Bob RopeMarks and his model Spring will cover the topic of armbinders, elbow ties and strappados. In other words: how to tie the arms behind the back in different ways to expose the front of the torso. He will teach us several variations and how to use these ties in full body bondages such as agura and ebi. Every body is different so you will learn which types of armbinders are suitable for your model. With partcipants who are fluent in suspensions we will go up into the air for suspensions with transitions. Others can use the the practiced ties in floorwork or semi suspension.
It will be an intense workshop with technical, physical and mental challenges for both shibarite and ukete. The workshop aims at people with a solid knowledge of the basics of shibari, but experienced shibarite will also find enough inspiration to expand their array of technique.
Requirements:
You can bring at least 8 ropes
You are comfortable with tying a single column tie, double column tie, gote/takate kote, the use of frictions
You know how to tie an upline (anchor) to pull towards a bamboo or ring
Experience with (semi-)suspension is not necessary: the content of this workshop is very suitable for use in floorwork
