Are you curious about shibari, the Japanese art of rope bondage, and want to explore it in a safe and nurturing space? Well we are very fortunate to have Petite Pretzel hosting an introduction session where you can learn the basics of this beautiful and sensual practice.

In this class, Petite Pretzel will introduce you to the fundamental principles of shibari, including the importance of communication, safety, and consent. You will also learn how to tie simple but effective knots as well as a few basic ties on your partner.

Pretzel will be accompanied by their model Pen, and will be there to guide you through the techniques to help you discover the art and power of shibari. This taster session is open to everyone, regardless of your level of experience or background. Whether you are a curious beginner or an experienced practitioner, you are welcome to join us and explore the world of shibari in our sweet and sultry soirée!
