Anatomie Studio, SE15 2JR
Description
About the workshop
We are used to tying our partners while on the floor, as our rope bottom’s stability becomes an easy task and we can usually stay connected just by being close. However, when we stand up, we get stiff and easily disconnected.Let’s start to move, both of us. Our tying can be like a dance – playful, sadistic, or dominant. The choice is yours.We will work on tying and moving at the same time. You will learn to tie in dynamic ways, move your partner and move together, and how to control his stability, the rope, and the whole tie.
Who is this workshop for?
Prerequisites: Both riggers and models should have good experience with basic suspensions. You should have mastered single/double column ties, suspension lines management and any form of Takate Kote or chest harness.
About the Facilitator
Peter Soptik and Sansei's approach to ropes is about a deep connection between two people.Peter has been studying Japanese bondage for a long time. He studied with Kinoko Hajime, Osada Steve, Akechi Kanna, Arnoys Nicolas and Naka Akira. They taught him the basics, technique and also the movement, intimacy and simplicity of the ropes. Today his style is shaped by his studies with Riccardo Wildties.Sansei has been doing ropes since 2017. She is not only a model, but also a rigger. She has been studying with Peter Soptik since 2019 and the Kinbaku LuXuria style. The experience of both roles allows her to better understand and pass on deeper insight. Although Naka style is their preferred way of tying today, they are open to enjoying spontaneity and fun with ropes, and their personal practice and teaching also includes lighter topics.
What should I bring and what do I wear?
Participants need to bring at least 8 ropes and . It might be convenient for models to bring slippery socks or similar gripless footwear.
We have a communal kitchenette, fridge and microwave. Tea and coffee are free but you should bring your food and snacks (we have plates and cutlery you can use). People usually wear comfortable clothing like yoga or dance attire. We advise against loose fitting clothing and also jeans can sometimes feel a bit restrictive to move around in and difficult to tie on.
