ENGLISHWorkshop: Ichinawa Play / One RopeOrganizer: JordgubbstjuvenHow can we explore another person and ourselves with just one rope? In this beginner-friendly workshop, we learn together.
Ichinawa (一縄) means "one rope" in Japanese and is a style of Shibari/Kinbaku. The way of tying focuses on touch and flow rather than knots and patterns.
The workshop explores this in a lighthearted and playful way where you do not need to know your partner beforehand, but can come alone and find someone on site.
The goal of this workshop is to feel comfortable creating a feeling using the ropes, both for the person tying and the person being tied.
