Many people have long dreamed of tying someone up or being tied up.

Shibari (also called Kinbaku or Semenawa) is really a unique experience. Shibari is very difficult to describe if you have not experienced it. I think Shibari can be many things. I personally am a very active rigger and I see that Shibari is different and unique for everyone.

What are you looking for as a sub or model in ropes?

Are you looking for a way to let go of everything, to be restricted in your movements, a liberation or is it just the restriction? Maybe it is the erotic excitement of submission, a kind of meditation or floating away with your body and mind? Or is it the pain you seek, the victory of yourself or the pushing of your limits? That and even more is possible

And what do you want, rigger?

Does dominance appeal to you, or is it the creation of a beautiful body in your ropes, the sadistic actions, the reactions of the model, or do you go for a sensual or erotic session?

But how can you make a shibari session even stronger, more intense than before?

The connection with the rigger and the model is one of the strongest emotions there is. The connection, the balance of giving and receiving and the energy exchange with each other makes your shibari session an unforgettable experience. An intense connection greatly enhances the emotions and feelings. It makes the session a deeper experience

It is not easy to find the right partner. You have to be looking for the same values, emotions and exchanges. But once you have found the right person, you can expand and strengthen the connection. It is like building a relationship. You have to feel, understand and complement each other.

For me, shibari is a combination of different things. But the connection is the most important thing in a session. I find it very difficult to rig someone intense and close if I don’t feel that person or if there is no energy exchange. This chemistry is strong and indescribable. It brings an energy that amplifies everything. The feeling, the emotion, the pain, the sadism and the energy go to another dimension.

Then there is the creation, the modelling or sculpting of the model in my ropes. That can be aesthetic, sadistic sensual, erotic or static. I enjoy the evolution of my sub in the ropes and her struggle.

But I am especially fed by the model’s emotions. How does she react to my ropes, my touches, caresses or pain? Do I caress her gently to ease her pain, do I encourage her, or do I smile as I watch her suffer and fight with herself? In a session, even all these different things can come together and alternate. You can build up emotions, hold them and strengthen them.

Shibari is unique, just like us.
