Arrive · Experience · Try it out | Every ropewalk begins with a first encounter.
The ideal introduction for anyone who wants to learn about, experience, and discover what fascinates so many people about Shibari.
.
What if Shibari didn't start with a rope at all?
Many come for the rope. Most stay for what develops between two people.
For us, Shibari doesn't begin with a knot. It begins where mindfulness becomes more important than everyday life, where communication can be more than words, and where a simple rope transforms into a space for trust, closeness, and shared experience.
We don't want to show you as many techniques as possible or "teach you Shibari" in just a few hours. Rather, we want to give you the opportunity to experience this special form of connection and gain an authentic first impression of why Shibari has accompanied and inspired us for so many years.
Because we believe:
Sometimes a shared journey doesn't begin with a knot, but with the courage to engage with one another.
In a relaxed atmosphere, we'll guide you through your first steps with a rope in our three-hour introductory session. Together, you'll discover the basics of safe and mindful handling, gain initial practical experience, and discover how a simple rope can foster awareness, trust, and connection.
Our aim is not to convey as much information as possible. What's far more important to us is that you understand why Shibari can be so much more than decorative rope patterns and why, for us, connection always comes before technique.
Whether you then continue your rope trip in our

Are you ready to immerse yourself in the fascinating world of Shibari?
Our specially designed beginner workshop offers both individuals and couples who would like to try both sides the perfect opportunity to learn about the beautiful art of Japanese bondage – all without prior knowledge or a rope partner!
.
- Are you or are you looking for a quick introduction to the fascinating world of ropes?
- Do you want to learn or refresh the basics?
- Would you like to immerse yourself in the world of Shibari, but can't find a suitable course partner?
- Do you long to take an active role yourself, instead of just watching while others are captivated?
- Or would you simply like to get a taste of the fascinating world of bondage, but don't dare to do it alone?
.
Then we have just the right offer for you:
In this course we will lay the foundation for your Shibair experience and focus on safety, the right equipment, basic knots and your first rope handling.
We'll show you the best way to get started, answer your questions, and explore together the possibilities that rope offers.
.
What's special about this course is that you don't need to bring a partner to the workshop; you can try everything out on your own, or spontaneous pairings can be formed on site. For the latter, however, we ask that you be open-minded and willing to take on both roles (rigger and model) at least once.
Our Shibari Kickstarter offers you, even as an individual, the opportunity to discover new things and develop yourself further in an open and respectful environment - be inspired and bring your curiosity!

Your gender, sexual orientation, and body shape don't matter to us.

The 4-part basic course for a safe and conscious introduction to the world of Shibari.
Next course start date: September 2026

[Alternatively also in the Individual one-on-one lessons (1:1) can be booked.
For many, the introduction to Shibari begins with a picture, a video, or the desire to discover something new together.
But even after the first few attempts, it becomes clear: Shibari is far more than just learning individual knots. Behind every technique lie principles and connections that determine how a bond feels, how safe it is, and how a shared experience can emerge from a rope. This is precisely where our basic course begins.
.
In four consecutive modules, we guide you step by step as you enter the world of Japanese rope bondage. You will learn the basic techniques, develop a safe and confident handling of the rope, and understand why small changes often make a big difference in tying safely and with respect for the body. Because we are convinced:
A good foundation will carry you further than the next knot.
.
Our basic course is for anyone who wants to do more than just imitate Shibari. We teach you the technical and practical fundamentals of Japanese rope bondage, supplemented by anatomy, materials science, safety aspects, and conscious rope handling. It's not just about the... How, but above all about the Why behind every technology.
Denn,
Sustainable learning begins where understanding arises.
For us, Shibari is not just about technique. Together, we also explore communication, trust, and the interpersonal dynamics of rope bondage. Step by step, you will develop an understanding of how technique can give rise to attention, connection, and a shared experience.
We integrate both roles equally into the lessons. Those actively tying someone learn a preventative and responsible approach to rope use, while models (ukete) better understand their own bodies, develop their risk profile, and learn how they can actively participate in the tying process. Because safety is always a shared responsibility!
.
We deliberately teach in small groups of no more than four couples. This allows time for personal feedback, individual guidance, and repetition. Our goal is not to show you as many rope techniques as possible, but to give you a foundation on which you can continue your rope climbing journey safely, consciously, and with enjoyment. We hope that through Shibari you will not only discover new techniques, but perhaps also a new form of encounter, attention and interpersonal communication.

“Walking gets boring when you learn how to fly..."
When the ground is removed, not only do the technical requirements change. Forces, loads, movement, and communication within the kata also become more complex. From the Semi Suspension about the Full suspension at single point up to Multiple point suspension on bamboo You will learn, To safely transfer weight to the rope and to understand the body in the air.
In our three-part Suspension Series, we will explain these connections to you step by step. We will address the specific safety aspects and risks of suspension, delve into relevant anatomical basics, and consider possible contraindications as well as the different shear and stress forces that act on the body in the air.
We understand suspension as an interplay between rigger and model/rope bottom. Body awareness, communication, and the shared assessment of situations are therefore just as important as the technical setup.
The three workshops each last 5 hours and take place approximately four weeks apart. The modules can be booked individually or as a complete series.
Each module lasts five hours and can be booked individually or as a continuous series.

Individual lessons & training
(in 1:1 setting/ individual lessons)
If you want to embark on your rope journey, refine your rope-tying skills or learn new patterns in a small and personal setting, then our individual lessons and/or training are right for you.
.
In a one-on-one setting, we focus entirely on your abilities and goals, tailoring the lessons even more precisely to your current knowledge, learning objectives, and pace. Given that people learn at different speeds, retain information differently, and require varying levels of support at different times, individual lessons offer a significant advantage, allowing our full attention to be focused on you. Another major benefit is the flexible scheduling. In our experience, lessons are most effectively structured in 3, 4, or 6-hour sessions. The latter is particularly suitable for those traveling from afar.
All teaching formats are also possible in individual settings.
Our courses and workshops with fixed content can also be booked exclusively in a 1:1 setting upon request. The proven content of the respective format remains the same, while you benefit from personal support, your own learning pace, and flexible scheduling.
For the individual implementation of our existing course and workshop formats, we offer a special 1:1 price For example, you can complete our beginner module course entirely on your own and plan the individual units to fit your personal calendar.

Specials: IYASU ROPU ©
Eine Reise jenseits von Technik – wo Seil, Atem und Energie in Resonanz treten. Iyasu Ropu verbindet Shibari / Kinbaku mit holistischer Energiearbeit und macht subtile Strömungen durch das Seil spürbar und erfahrbar.
Diese sensible, tiefgehende Praxis entfaltet sich vornehmlich im geschützten 1:1 Setting.
.
Wir sind erster offizieller Instruktor für die ganzheitliche Symbiose von Shibari/Kinbaku und Energiearbeit nach der Methode von Sarca Martello. Die Iyasu-Ropu-Methode verfolgt einen erweiterten Ansatz des Semenawa und ist Sarca’s eigene Kreation, die aus der Verschmelzung seiner Studien mit Seilen in Kombination mit ganzheitlichen Disziplinen und dem Studium der nonverbalen Kommunikation entstanden ist.
Im Shibari Kontext stolpert man immer wieder über den Begriff von "Emotionen" und "Kommunikation" ... mit dieser Methode gehen wir noch eine Ebene tiefer, in dem wir eine einzigartige Symbiose zwischen der ästhetischen Kunst des Shibari und der kraftvollen Welt der Energiearbeit herstellen. Sie bündelt die subtilen Energien in unseren Körpern und wird durch die Seile kanalisiert , um eine noch intensivere und berührende Erfahrung im Shibari zu kreieren. In diesem Workshop geht es nicht nur um die Technik des Shibari, sondern auch um die emotionale und spirituelle Dimension dieser Kunstform. Wir werden die Bedeutung von Kommunikation, Vertrauen und Respekt vertiefen und wie diese Elemente die Intensität und Tiefe der Erfahrungen beeinflussen können. .
Wir bedienen uns restriktiver Fesselungen um den Körper als auch den Geist herauszufordern und die darus resultierenden verschiedenen Emotionen/ Reaktionen der gefesselten Person zu lesen und extrahieren diese, begleiten sie mit Liebe um sich ihrer bewusst zu werden und einen Lösungsprozess einzuleiten. Wir wollen Türen öffnen, jene geheime Türen, hinter denen wir unsere Ängste und unsere Leiden verbergen und schaffen damit eine ganz neue Ebene der Verbindung, Emotionen und Nähe.
.
Wir erschaffen mit dieser Methode sehr intime und manchmal verborgene Gefühle , wir legen daher einen erhöhten Wert auf ein respektvolles und sicheres Umfeld und achten darauf, die eigenen Grenzen zu respektieren. Es wird eine physisch und emotional intensive Zeit- aus diesem Grund unterrichten wir diese Methode vornehmlich im 1:1 Setting (Introduction "Iyasu Ropu"-Workshop ausgeschlossen).

Seilzeit
DEINE Zeit im Seil!
Das Seil wird zum Rahmen, der dich hält – körperlich wie innerlich – und dich einlädt, Kontrolle abzugeben. Hier darfst du den ganzen Raum einnehmenn und einfach sein. Kein Lernen – sondern unmittelbares Erleben. Intensiv, fokussiert und ganz im Jetzt.
Das sagen unsere Schüler über uns:
"We went home with so much more."
I already had some prior experience and was pleasantly surprised by the depth of even seemingly "simple" techniques. You teach not only the how, but also the why.
I found your attitude particularly valuable: responsibility instead of ego. That clearly sets you apart from other offers for me, and that's why I'm happy to regularly drive several hundred kilometers."
"I went to the Kickstart event alone and was honestly quite nervous."
As a queer person, I pay close attention to the spaces I move in.
I felt welcome from the very beginning. It was wonderful to simply be myself. And I learned so much along the way. You both explain things incredibly clearly, prioritize safety, and create a space where you don't feel judged.
"Ich habe mich unfassbar gefreut, dass die Sakuras die Techniken vom Sarca unterrichten dürfen. Der Kurs selbst war in Mini-Modulen aufgebaut, die einem roten Faden folgten. Zu sehen und zu spüren, was alles möglich ist, wenn man sich auf diese Art von Seil einlässt, ist gigantisch. Die Nähe die dadurch zu meinem Model entstanden ist, wird erst nach und nach klar. Es ist tatsächlich eine ganz andere Art zu Fesseln!
Vielen Dank, dass ich das noch dieses Jahr erleben durfte."
"The rope-climbing taster session yesterday was a fantastic event and broadened our horizons. A very harmonious, respectful, and intimate atmosphere with helpful information and background. The practical part, especially with demonstrations, practice, supervision, and ideas, was great. We'd love to participate again next time 🤗, thank you for letting us share in the experience."
"Nice course, very well designed, you can tell there's a lot of passion involved."
A relaxed atmosphere and a lovely practice room. The tips and advice are excellent, and there's no time pressure. Questions are always answered competently, I felt comfortable at all times, and I will definitely come back. I highly recommend this course for beginners.
"A huge thank you for your workshops, which have sparked my curiosity and passion, turning it into genuine enthusiasm. I wanted to actively understand Shibari. Specifically, I wanted to know the technical aspects of what actually happens with the passive partner. Initially, I thought I'd just approach it rationally... Ha, I never would have predicted that I'd be so completely captivated by the joy of active bondage."
