What ever you feel comfortable in. Most people like to feel the ropes on their skin, therefore they chose minimal clothing, lingerie, or underwear. Some people wear dresses and the fabric becomes part of the session.
I am open to nudity in the session. I prefer you express that interest in advance. -
It depends. If you are new to ropes, floor play is great way to get acclimated to the world of ropes. Allowing a beautiful introduction to understanding the body sensations that you experience when being tied.
If we have worked together before, you have had previous suspension experience, and we have discussed the possibility in our session, then yes, all is possible.
It is a case by case basis. Let’s talk about it. -
I am happy to see you are looking into something new and a bit edgy. I have worked with many folk who are new to the ropes. We take it step by step and cater the session to your needs, wants, and boudaries. We develop a check in system to make sure that you are feeling safe. I am there with you the entire time, as your guide.

Sure! I love outdoor sessions! If there is a space that you have in mind, lets talk about it.
Things to consider when chosing a place:
-Privacy-Weather Conditions (rain and temperture)
-Bugs, creatures, animals
-Sounds
-
Sure, I am happy to take pictures during the session with your phone or mine. If I take them with mine, usually I will edit them a bit to capture the mood. I prefer for the photography to not interfere with the session and for you to stay dropped into the experience.
If you desire a photosession where the intention is on the art and photography, let me know before hand and we can plan accordingly. For instance, maybe you would like to hire a photographer to join our session or to set up an art shoot with decorative body ties or another creative and artistic vision.

I weave together the intricate technicalities of Shibari with the transformative realms of spirituality, intimacy, depth and connection. It's about mastering the mechanics as well as a journey into the soul, a passage where vulnerability and emotional exploration become pathways to profound transformation. What we learn here transcends the classroom and into day to day life.
Beyond the intricacies of rope lies a sacred space—a space where participants delve into the depths of their being, embracing vulnerability, and forging intimate connections with themselves and other. I emphasize the physicality of Shibari, and its ability to unearth tender spots within, inviting individuals to navigate these realms with empathy, respect, and conscious awareness. Sharing tools to navigate these uncharted conversational territories. Which enhance how we conversate and enter intimate spaces in regular life, the skills your always wanted but were never taught.
The workshops are inspired by Authentic Relating, The Wheel of Consent, Embodiment, Conscious Kink, and Somatic Intimacy and converge with the Japanese Art of Shibari. Encouraging participants to articulate their desires, boundaries, and emotions while co-creating a space of play, expansion, feeling, surrender, empowerment, and relaxation. It's a journey that transcends ropes and techniques, fostering an environment where spirituality meets embodied practice, where intimacy blooms through conscious connections.
Through this fusion of technical mastery and interpersonal depth, individuals undergo a transformation—a profound awakening to their own being and a heightened sensitivity to the intricacies of human connection. Participants emerge not just skilled in Shibari, but enriched with a deeper understanding of themselves, their partners, and the sacred dance of intimacy and spirituality.
