Shibari ZERO
INTRODUCTION ~ THE BEGINNER’S MINDSET
“Shoshin” is a word from Zen Buddhism meaning "beginner's mind.”
It refers to having an attitude of openness, eagerness, and lack of preconceptions when studying a subject, even when studying at an advanced level, just as a beginner would.

Please wear something that you feel comfortable tying in / getting tied in, considering both movement and temperature.
For models, we prefer fitted clothing similar to yoga attire.
We advise against restrictive clothing such as jeans, underwire bras, jewelry, etc.
We practice barefoot or with socks.
Rope
You will need a minimum of 3 jute or hemp ropes, preferably 5-6mm in diameter and 7-8m in length. Suitable rope can also be purchased at the studio (please contact us beforehand).
WHAT'S NEXT?
After the ZERO course, you will have enough basic knowledge to develop an interaction with the means of rope.
Depending on your intentions, we offer the possibility to build up further during the ONE course where you can learn more shibari basics and semi-suspension.
IMPORTANT | You do NOT need to follow all the courses to be able to enjoy ropes together !!
