We offer Tantric BDSI workshops ahead of every Temple Party (see Temple Party page for informatin).
We also run other workshops and courses at Casa LoJeMa. Next one up is a series of 3 workshops on Shibari led by Sam Karaune.
Shibari Dive
Come to deepen your knowledge of shibari, the Japanese art of emotionally connected tying, from a dojo-trained teacher.
The three hour workshops of the "Shibari Dive"-series focus on deepening your understanding of the fundamental philosophies behind shibari, learning better rope handling and new techniques, while keeping the focus at the core: the rope as a conduit of Ki-energy between the giver and the receiver for creating emotionally connected experiences.
Each of the Shibari Dive workshops focuses on a different aspect of shibari to deepen your knowledge. You may choose to follow any combination of the workshops or only one of them. A package deal is available: Follow all the 2024 Shibari Dive workshops and save!

Prerequisites
When coming to the Shibari Dive workshops, you should have attended to Sam's "Shibari Fundamentals Workshop" or obtained otherwise the following technical basics: making a non-collapsing single column tie (preferably Japanese style) and how to keep up consistent tension while tying and untying the rope.
No pre-agreed partner is required. To attend this workshop, you should feel comfortable to partner up with another participant and swap between the roles of the giver and the receiver during the workshop.
