Biography
Kazami Ranki, a veteran of the Shibari circuit is one of Japan’s leading bakushi and a ranking name in the underground scenes of Tokyo and Osaka. He has been part of the kink scene for over 25 years, giving shows, appearing in DVDs and organizing events. He runs his own bondage and SM group “Circle M’s” in Osaka. He is also a well-established teacher, having taught throughout Asia, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, the US and Europe.
Although nicknamed “The Atricious Nawashi” Kazami Ranki actually seeks to highlight the spirit of a woman tied. He ties the model to enhance her natural beauty while she feels the power of his ropes.
