Looking for a complete introduction to Shibari?
Have you been to some of our Thursday sessions and are looking to progress further?
Have you been exploring Shibari online during lockdown and now looking to solidify your knowledge?

Then this course is for you!

You'll be able to learn all the basics of rope in this midweek course taking place over 4 Monday evenings in September. The class will be fun, social and informative, taught in a welcoming and approachable atmosphere.

The class is taught by team members of Anatomie Studio.

You'll learn everything from safety and all the basic techniques, to how to handle rope and how to work with the body. We'll cover a variety of classic patterns, shapes and ties, and get your creativity going regarding rope and play.

This course is equivalent to our weekend Discover Shibari course and gives you the necessary pre-requisites to join the following courses.

When does this course take place?

Monday November 21st 6:30pm-10:30pm
Monday November 28th  6:30pm-10:30pm
Monday December 5th 6:30pm-10:30pm
Monday December 12th 6:30pm-10:30pm

Who can come to this class? Are there pre-requisites?

There are no pre-requisites for this course. This class is open to all levels and complete beginners. No rope needed. No experience needed. Switching is allowed throughout the class (tying and being tied).

What should I bring and what do I wear?

We have ropes you can use during the class and 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.

Who teaches this class?

This class will be taught by Anna Noctuelle and Pedro

Anna (she/ her) discovered Shibari over 15 years ago and has worked as an educator, model and co-teacher across Europe since 2016. Being most at home inside the ropes, she has always attached importance to teaching modelling content and to paying attention to what models bring to the table, even and especially in the most technical of classes.

Anna has got a holistic approach and draws from her experience in classical ballet as well as her yoga and mindfulness practice which has lead her to developing exceptional body awareness and problem-solving skills in ropes and suspension and to cultivating a creative mindset. She is an empathetic teacher and strongly believes that the art of Japanese rope bondage can be learned by anyone who is willing to give it room to blossom.
