Join Feral Binds and dip your toes into a sensory seducing day of connection, compression and exploration as we test the waters in few of the many intersections of play that rope bondage has to offer. 

In this relaxing, and supportive adults only Self Tie Shibari Summer Intensive, expect to tap into inner power dynamics and lean into new spaces of self connection that will leave you tuned in, turned on and even a little breathless. 

Dress with personal comfort and level of sensory stimulation you’d like to experience in mind. Yoga shorts/sports bra is ideal. If you choose to experience the rope with your skin covered, think tight fitting top/ leggings. Jeans/baggy clothing not recommended. 

We will be using an aerial hammock for a portion of the day. You may bring your own or rent one from the studio upon arrival for $10.

About your instructor: Feral Binds has been showing the ropes, for almost as long as she has been learning them. She found early on that through sharing her practice, she could more effectively communicate through and with the rope. As she continues on her learning journey, she brings this “one bind fits somebody-but certainly not every body” explorative mindset as a leader, offering a safe space for questions and connection. As a passionate advocate for self exploration, she hopes to share how the art of rope bondage can evoke deep trust and security in oneself as well as with a chosen partner.

This transformative experience will combine the lightness of a suspended, floating body with the soothing practice of a sound bath. 

Harmonizing the body with sound has the power to regulate energy along the meridians and calm negative emotions. It also breaks down old patterns of behavior and the fears attached to them, and resets the physical, emotional and mental body.

The hammock offers a cocoon-like environment, which some compare to the maternal womb that cradles and protects your body.

Enjoy the ultimate experience of relaxation and meditation through a sound bath as you float weightlessly to the binaural sounds of crystal singing bowls.

Cost of workshop: $40 without a hammock rental, $50 with a hammock rental
