Getting Started
New to shibari? Our Shibari 101 course is where Seattle folks come to begin their journey.
This small-group workshop is made for complete beginners — no experience needed.
Classes are capped at 8 tying pairs, so you get individual feedback as you learn, in an inclusive, consent-forward space where questions are welcome and the pace stays low-key and relaxed.
What You'll Learn
Safety and consent come first — they're the foundation everything else stands on.
From there you'll learn basic knots, frictions and rope handling, then build your first floorwork ties step by step, with guidance throughout. And because you'll understand how ties are structured, you'll leave with the groundwork that later leads toward partial suspension and beyond.
Shibari 101 is the first rung of the ladder — and a complete, satisfying class in its own right.
