In-Person: Beginner Shibari

This beginner-friendly workshop is open to everyone, and no prior experience is required to join.

In this class, we will explore single and double column techniques and see how they come together to create a complete tie known as Futomomo.

Futomomo, which translates to “thigh binding,” is a beautiful and versatile tie that involves folding the leg and securing it to the thigh using a combination of single and double columns.

We’ll start with a brief refresher on single and double column foundations, giving everyone a chance to feel confident with the basics. From there, you’ll be guided step-by-step through the process of building a Futomomo shibari harness from start to finish, with plenty of time to move at a comfortable pace.

Please bring your own ropes. A limited number of ropes will also be available on-site if needed.

This class is designed to be welcoming, supportive, and fun—a relaxed environment where everyone can learn, practice, and enjoy the art of shibari together.
