It leaves you wanting more. <\/em><\/p>\n Shibari is the Japanese art of emotionally connected rope work. \ud83e\udea2 No tricks. No spectacle. But a practice that revolves around PRESENCE \u2014 about giving and receiving trust, about connection that goes deeper than words. <\/p>\n You don’t learn that art in an hour. It requires space, guidance, and immersion. Most shibari introductions stop exactly where it gets interesting. Too many knots attempted in too little time, and no one taking the time to explain how to intentionally connect with the other person and create the necessary safety. <\/p>\n And for women who want to explore shibari: here you will find a framework that is clear from the start, where safety is given as much weight as the art itself, and where you are equally allowed to feel what it is to give this special experience as well as receive it. \u2728<\/p>\n Saturday<\/strong> \u2014 the foundation: safety, philosophy, the basic principles that support everything that follows. For those who have never held a rope, this is where you build trust. For those who have already taken a basic workshop, this is where loose fragments finally come together as a whole. <\/p>\n Sunday<\/strong> \u2014 this is where it goes deeper. More technique, more nuance, the building blocks you learn to link into a FLOW yourself, carefully dosed pedagogically with intentional learning to connect. This is where the weekend does its real work. <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.studio-es.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Foto-13-11-2024-20-32-31-scaled.jpg” title_text=”Man gently surrendering in woman's arms during shibari liaison classes in Ghent” src_tablet=”https:\/\/www.studio-es.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/DSC4610_mobile.jpg” src_phone=”https:\/\/www.studio-es.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/DSC4610_mobile.jpg” src_last_edited=”off|tablet” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” border_radii=”off||70px||” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”3_5,2_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.7″ _module_preset=”default” custom_css_free_form=”selector li { line-height: 2em;||list-style-position: outside;||margin-left: 20px;||padding-left: 20px; }” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Sound familiar?

You may take them in any order. They are independent of each other and alternate year after year. <\/p>\n For all higher levels: you only register when you feel you have MASTERED the skills of the previous level. That is your responsibility \u2014 and it makes the difference between keeping up and truly growing. <\/p>\n The higher levels take place only once a year per level. Places are limited.

<\/em>“This weekend I let Sam take me into the world of shibari and what I discovered there went so much further than ropes and knots. Sam brings a style that revolves around connection, attention, and trust \u2014 within a clear and safe framework. During the demos, the entire atmosphere in the room changed. It suddenly became pin-drop silent. It touched, it opened, it invited.”<\/em><\/p>\n
“An absolute must for anyone who might be hesitating. A calm build-up in a safe environment, expert explanation with a touch of humor, interesting demos, and the necessary space to discover yourself in this.”<\/em><\/p>\n<\/a>[\/et_pb_code][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”3_5,2_5″ module_id=”intensive” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”13px||3px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_heading title=”Going further in Shibari” module_id=”connect” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” title_font=”Prata||||||||” title_font_size=”3em” title_line_height=”1.6em” custom_margin=”||2px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_heading][et_pb_heading title=”Levels 1B, 2A and 2B (one full day per level)” module_id=”bootcamp” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” title_font=”–et_global_body_font|600||on|||||” title_font_size=”1.5em” title_line_height=”1.6em” custom_margin=”||2px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_heading][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” header_6_font=”Open Sans|700||on|||||” header_6_font_size=”1em” custom_padding=”2px|||||” custom_css_free_form=”selector li { line-height: 2em;||list-style-position: outside;||margin-left: 20px;||padding-left: 20px; }” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\nRecent participants share:<\/h3>\n
