Nawa Riccardo Kai
Performance
It is a private session to tie for real, without music, without limits, sharing with the public the love for the style of rope that we represent. It is an occasion to see Wildties tie every time different models, and appreciate the different kind of interaction with each.
But the Nawa Kai is more than that, it's a place to talk, to share stories and experiences, to discuss about the japanese interpretation of rope, without the need for political correctness that is so widespread in workshops and other rope events. It's a place to hear about Wildties' experiences with Naka Sensei and what he has lived and learned in his trips in Japan. It is a great occasion to learn more, and be part, of this legacy. It is an occasion to share views on aesthetic and philosophy, to talk about our history and to broaden our Kinbaku culture.

Embracing the Gote:
A Rope Model's Perspective
The Gote, or Takate Kote, represents more than just a technical harness—it's a profound journey of connection, sensation, and mutual understanding. This workshop invites both riggers and models to explore this iconic and foundational tie through a holistic, nuanced lens.
We will learn about the structure and purpose of this tie, how it affects your body, identify potential risks and learn how to manage and mitigate them. Beyond mere technical execution, we'll delve into the rich emotional landscape of the Gote. Participants will discover how this tie transcends its practical purposes, becoming a powerful medium of communication, trust, and shared experience. This workshop is designed for both riggers and models who wish to deepen their understanding of this simple yet complex tie and want enhance their experience in ropes. The workshop will be a mix of discussions, Q&A, and practical exercises. It would be beneficial if the people tying/riggers would be able to tie a 2TK or at least the upper wrap.
