Shibari, the erotic art of Japanese rope bondage, is a visually striking, emotionally engaging, and creatively challenging practice enjoyed by people all over the world.
Whether you’re interested in bondage for sex, relaxation, sadomasochism, art (or simply bonding with your significant other/s), Japan’s unique style of rope play offers you exciting new perspectives on concepts like control, pleasure, and intimacy.
Join us on the weekends when we host events for adults of all ages, genders, and body types who want to explore bondage in a safer, supportive, and accepting environment.
Please note: Due to COVID-19, our events are temporarily limited to a maximum of 10 attendees.
Reserve your slots by ordering via the calendar below. (Or save more by purchasing a monthly pass!)
Note: Those who fail to observe these guidelines will be added to our flagged list which is shared with the other local kink groups.
If you only want to attend once, or a small handful, you could buy a Single Event Ticket via our calendar.
If you are a regular attendee and you want bigger savings, you could buy a Multi-Event Pass at our online store.
Attending with a partner is recommended but not required since you are welcome to partner with other solo attendees.
In the future, we’ll be able to accommodate requests if you want to hire a professional rope partner for the class.
Sports, yoga, and exercise attire are common favorites since they’re not baggy and won’t get caught in the ropes so often. Bras with underwires however are specifically discouraged since chest-related bondage might make it harder to breathe, deform the underwire, or accidentally poke/stab you.
Attendees will need to stay clothed and masked during this event to comply with the safety guidelines for preventing COVID-19 infection.
CLOTHES: If you reckon you’ll perspire a lot, bring small towels and a change of clothes.
ROPE: Depending on the type of tying you plan to do, you can bring anywhere between 1-4 bondage-safe ropes. We recommend ones that are 8-meters long and have a diameter that’s anywhere between 5-8mm thick. Natural fiber jute ropes are encouraged but not required. Synthetic ropes are okay.
If you have none yet, you may buy rope from our online shop or buy in person at our studio (depending on stock availability).
EMT/SAFETY SHEARS: We use a special kind of scissors for bondage—the kind used by paramedics for emergency situations which have a blunt tip. We’ll have several shears available during the event but you are encouraged to get your own pair.
MEDICATION: Please remember to bring medication if you need any— especially for emergencies (asthma inhalers, insulin, etc.).
You can browse our selection of natural fiber ropes (jute ropes/asanawa) and synthetic fiber ropes (polypropylene ropes) in our online store or in person at our rope studio.
If none are available at the moment, that means a pre-order is on the way. Join these pre-orders for bigger savings as we order in bulk from our suppliers!
Attendees of Shibari.ph events tend to be comfortable enough to use their real names. However, we highly encourage the use of code names and aliases during the events so that you have a layer of defense against people who might have malicious intentions.
Note: Anyone caught harassing other attendees for personal details will be reprimanded or sent out. Repeat offenders will be blacklisted from future events and reported to the other local kink groups.
Photographs are only allowed during our events if all attendees who will be part of the shot are consenting. We may dedicate a photo-safe zone where photo-taking is allowed.
No worries! Accidents, emergencies, and changed minds happen. Cancellations are free until seven (7) days before the scheduled event. After that period, we will need to bill you 75% of the scheduled appointment’s fee as a cancellation fee. If you have any questions or concerns, please email us at [email protected]
