Shibari - Ichinawa +
Our bi-weekly Shibari classes emphasise mindfulness, dialogue, and bonds between tying partners. In this fortnightly class we explore various elements including opening a session, fundamental ties and harnesses, and the evolution of emotional states. The exercises in each class are aimed at enhancing rope handling, communication skills and refining body awareness. These drop-in classes are non-progressive and are designed to deepen participants' understanding and practice of Shibari, creating a supportive environment for exploration and playfulness. All levels welcome.

Tantra - Embodied Connection
Our bi-weekly Tantra classes focus on an embodied connection with yourself and others. In this fortnightly class we explore the Shiva and the Shakti, the Yin and the Yang aspects within ourselves, while cultivating healthy boundaries, presence in the body, and awareness of sexual energy. Through meditation, heart-opening practices, partner exercises, moon rituals, and Hara journeys, these drop-in classes offer a supportive and safe space for exploration. Please bring a notebook and a pen for journalling and jotting down thoughts. All levels welcome.

Introduction to the Gote
​
In this evening workshop, you will learn the foundations of the iconic “Takate Kote” (also known as "TK" or “Gote” for short).
The class will be taught by Burgundy Rose and Anna Noctuelle, and will look at both the rigger and bottom perspective. It will cover key information and detail on safety, anatomy, structure, tension, placement, aesthetics and emotional/psychological impact.
Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions, refine techniques, and adapt the tie to suit your body, preferences and style. Learning the TK gives you a wide range of valuable principles and techniques that are transferable to many other areas of shibari practice.
Due to the length of the class and complexity of material, switching is not recommended. Unless both participants are already familiar with the TK, this workshop will not give sufficient time for two people to practice the pattern, give feedback, correct any issues, and then switch.

Body Awareness & Coping Skills for Safer, Deeper Rope Practice
This is a class aimed at bottoms, models, and people inside the rope. To get the most out of this class and take part in the practical exercises, we recommend bringing your rigging or tying partner. Observer tickets are also available for those who simply want to watch and take notes.*

An incredible practice which was introduced so wonderfully and skilfully by Anna. Never would I have thought that rope and intimacy could open so much.
A thought provoking, sensitive and intelligent class. Well delivered and held. Entertaining, touching and very much enjoyed. Thank you.
