As a Norfolk kink boudoir photographer, I was instantly drawn to the erotic beauty of Shibari and immediately wanted to incorporate it at the studio by hosting a couples Shibari class. When I began making plans for our Kink Room, I envisioned shooting a couples boudoir session with the sensual rope ties. Capturing images of the bottom artistically bound by their top; the rugged texture of the rope against silky lingerie. Shibari truly is erotic art and this photographer cannot wait to offer this beginner bondage course.
How Shibari Helped Me Surrender
I am all about creating experiences and I love learning new things! Especially if it involves some experimentation in the bedroom! 🔥
But, I have to admit; I am a bit of a control freak. In order for me to let go, I have to know that I will be safe and supported by somebody more competent than me.
I had an absolute BLAST learning about shibari bondage with our fellow attendees!
This bondage experience ended up providing a perfect reflection on our relationship and it’s dynamics with trust, communication, power exchange, and support.
Shibari requires constant communication between you and your rigger.
As a bottom, you must speak up about your needs and your comfort. Your tolerance, your abilities, and your desires.
As a top, you must provide a sense of safety and security. You have to communicate and express what you desire from your bottom.
This necessary exchange of communication required a bit of internal deep diving for me.
I wasn’t expecting to learn so much about myself, my partner, and our relationship from this class. But whoa…did I!!!
This beginner Shibari class allowed us to put our communication skills to practice in such an impactful way.
This experience was fun as hell. It was sexy. Surprisingly, it was emotional. It was insightful. It was playful. And notably, it was extremely erotic!
