The Shibari Mindset
I had the opportunity to visit Bound Studio this month and was so impressed by the space—it is easily one of the most harmonious & inviting rope spaces I’ve visited in my travels around the world.
Jonathan Ryan
Shibari Instructor & Performer
"We took the "Learn the ropes" course to be able to explore shibari deeper, and we will absolutely be back. The instruction was broken down perfectly. It touched on all aspects of the art, well beyond the rope itself. Highly recommend to anyone looking to get started."
