Tantric Shibari is not just a knot-tying lesson. It is a way to be present with someone else in a different way, through rope, touch, and attention. What you take away from my workshops is not so much a technique, but an experience: how it feels to lead and to be followed. Additionally, I also offer technical shibari lessons.
Learning to receive more deeply. Rope brings surrender, massage touches what lies beneath.
Brings: the body that remembers how to receive.
When surrender can take you deeper into allowing..
There is a place in you that longs to stop doing. To be held without questions. To finally receive. Completely.
In this day-long immersion, shibari and tantra massage meet. The ropes bring you into a state of surrender. The massage touches what lies beneath. Together they open your gate.
Where existential kink and heart meet
Brings: access to your raw energy, shadow as ally.
When the animal in you gets to breathe again
In Primal Play, we invite that part back. Through animal archetypes, from playful cat to hunting wolf, you discover what happens when your instinct gets to take the lead. You learn to hunt and be hunted. Feeling boundaries from your body, not from your head. Experiencing dominance that is not about power, but about presence.
From shame to surrender, in a weekend that feels like a week
Some things need more than a day. More space. More time to land, to open, and to really sink in.
Bind Me Loose is a complete temple weekend where we immerse ourselves in the journey from shame to surrender. For two days, we work with rope, touch, breath, voice, and play. You learn to take AND give. Lead AND follow. You learn that being bound is the most powerful path to pure, escaped freedom.
I participated in this shibari-tantra day with Michael, and I especially noticed how good it felt to approach shibari not from a "technique" perspective, but from connection. The day felt like an invitation to slow down, to feel, and to truly attune: to myself, to the other, and to what felt right at that moment.
What I found powerful was how the guidance read the group and adapted the day to the level of the participants. There was a mix of people with and without experience in shibari, with and without a tantra background, and yet it felt safe and coherent. That gave me peace: I had nothing to prove, just to be present.
I did not come as a couple, and I appreciated how there was space for different ways of participating: you were gently invited to practice with other partners, but it was also made clear that those who preferred to work with a fixed partner had just as much space.
I went home with a deeper sense of my body and the realization that "good" is not in the knots, but in the attunement. Highly recommended for those who want to explore shibari and tantra from safety, connection, and experience.
It was a delightful, calming workshop with challenging knots and new massage techniques. I enjoyed it immensely. Very professional setting and teacher.
Enjoyed a wonderful, playful, connecting, shameless, and sacred weekend with Michael as an inspiring spaceholder!
My workshops follow a familiar pattern: we start with a welcome circle to land and share intentions. Then we lay the foundation: safety and consent, not as a formality but as the basis of everything that follows. We ensure that everyone knows the concepts of the wheel of consent. After that, I demonstrate the first techniques, and you practice in pairs or in a group with my guidance. Then we will feel with the technique you have learned.
You don't need to bring anything. I provide POSH ropes — they are pleasant to use and easy to clean after each workshop. Clothing: comfortable and loose. The workshop is non-sexual and there is no nudity.
We beginnen bij nu voor shibari. Voor de shibari meets tantra workshops is een basis begrip consent nodig. Lees meer : Traagheid en consent in workshops. Voor het bind me los weekend is een basis ervaring tantra vereist.
Yes. You will be paired with another participant. It is a learning environment, not a dating event.
Nee. Ik werk met continue check-ins en we passen alles direct aan. We werken nooit naar posities die pijn doen.
In my workshops, I always use POSH ropes. They feel the most natural of all synthetic options and are easy to clean after each session. I only use jute and hemp in private sessions.
Many couples function well as a team. But somewhere, the beloved has been pushed to the background. Shibari brings something back: polarization and deeper connection. Read more here:Passion in your relationship
