I used to teach it on kik during lockdown for people to do self ties.

You could get in person tuition every second Sunday at Peer Rope Sutton,only 10 minutes from Carshalton.

Here's an old note that I used to out up.

An updated version of something I have posted a few times.

As a general rule it is best to learn from someone who is experienced. Understanding tension is important and the purpose of ties can be critical. Therefore, check if there is a peer rope near you.

If you don't want to leave the house.

Books

Most have a sections on safety and choice or rope.

Two of those books were written by the Knotty Boys,. One is "Showing You The Ropes". The books are not my thing but people like them and are worth checkling if you like pretty rope. Unfortunately YouTube has removed most of their videos.

Although I am into Japanese style rope, rope is about fun and can be about sexy times. To that end I like Chantra Rose's "Bondage for Sex. You can find her in action online on porn sites in her domination of women videos "Chanta's Bitches"( not for the fainthearted).

Other books I would mention are:

Lee Harrington's "Shibari You Can Use" and "More Shibsri you can use"

Midori's "The Seductive Art Japanese Bondage"

Lord Morpheus' "Bondage Basics'

Pete Riggs *Rope Bondage The Smart Way"

Jay Wiseman "Basic Rope Bondage"

Essence of Shibari by Shin Nawakiri is worth a look.

If tying men is your thing I would recommend

,Stephen Niederwieser's "Tie Me Up!

For rope bottoms:

Evie Vanes "Better Bondage Every Body"

Clover's guide for rope bottoms and rope models

If you want a good holistic book in bondage and D/S and don't mind a long read, Mistress Couple's "Ultimate Guide to Bondage" would be worth a look.

If self suspension is your thing Shay Toxiano's "Tying & Flying"

If you want videos the makers of rope deGiotta, and also Twisted Monk used to separately have videos on Vimeo and YouTube as is Rory's Brainworks, Watts the Safe Word . Also recommended on Youtube is ChristianRed's Bondage Tuition. There is also The Duchy, and

Crash Restraint has a good syllabus but a number of the links are dead.

I recommend The Rope Podcast.

In addition to the previous post: Esinem has online tutorials. as has Anatomie has videos, as has bondagetuition on YouTube.Ebi Mcknotty rope 365 is worth looking up. additionally Kink A cademy the teacher Graydancer is worth checking out.

Many recommend Shibari Study which is a paid resource online which I have since joined and it is good. Another online resource is Shibari Acadamy.

"Miumi-U Teaches Japanese Shibari"

is a recommended book.

Other books are "Shibari" by Phillippe Boxis which is in French and English.

As is the Shibaku books 1 and 2 by Peter Wettstein, the third is not translated.

"Osez le Bondage is a pocket book by Axterdam with French and English Editions.

For German speakers Matthias Grimm has his Japanese Bondage.

There are Douglas Kent's books, but because they are out of print they are becoming stupidly expensive, and they are old school.

"Bondage' David La Greca It has a good philosophical side

If philosophy is your thing "Discovering Kinbaku' Zetsu Nawa is worth a look as is "Pdychology of BDSM & Rope Bondage" by Sin.

If history is your thing the podcast and associated material of the Kinbakunomicon by Faviola is excellent. As is the "The Beauty of Kinbaku" by Master K.

There is a documentary based in London starting at the Flying Dutchman (another site lost to us) filmed 2010 to 2014 by Bob Bentley (although now dated the scene has changes hugely) " The Pleasure of Rope' clips on YouTube.

For a different take on the history of shibari you can search for Midori's online commentary "

The History & Myths of Japanese Bondage"

Please support providers and also teachers of kink, especially rope.

Rope done badly can cause serious harm.

Have a look at "Anatomie studio" and "shibari study" on YouTube, I learnt to tie using the videos as well as in person tuition which helps get the tensions right

Bath ish

Some excellent advice and detail here I would fully support going to a munch and or rope Jam etc but if being in a group is not your thing yet or never I have done sessions at a Victorian house in Bath and small well equipped dungeons in Bristol

Enjoy your journey and have fun and be safe

Always remember your safe words and invest in a pair of safety scissors I have never had to use them but reassuring for all participants to have some at hand should you ever need to undo quickly

I love the idea of shibari, it looks so hot! Anyone looking for a big, sub blonde to tie up?

Hi Trixie

I am always up for tying people. If my profile interests you drop me a line.

Hiya, getting the tensions right is so it feels good, not a safety thing (although it could be in some cases).

I suggest try switching with each other and see how the different tensions feel - including when you untie each other, it feels better to keep firm tension and not "drop" sections of rope

"With our first attempt I got the neck halter tension wrong and impacted later.... defo need more work "

I am curious, what were you trying to tie and how did it impact?

"Have a look at "Anatomie studio" and "shibari study" on YouTube, I learnt to tie using the videos as well as in person tuition which helps get the tensions right "

for these links, and finding a peer rope group to go to. Also try Christian Red’s YouTube channel “Bondage Tuition”. “Rope365” and Kinkabu today are decent resources.

Enjoy!
