Through exercises, we learn to guide the model’s whole body fluidly within a tie using only rope—without using our hands or our own body. We progress from simple movements and changes of position to lowering the model down and bringing them back up.
Required level: Safe rope handling, mastery of half hitches and a single-column tie.
In this training, we start the tie loosely and continuously increase the tension as it progresses. The increased pressure should not be limited to individual areas: by the end, the entire tie should have become noticeably tighter.
Required level: Safe rope handling and mastery of direction changes and half hitches.
In this training, we form small groups. One pair takes on the tying role, while another person, supported by the others, acts as the Shape-Creator. The group determines each next step in the suspension: which leg goes where, which lines are lowered and more. The tying pair then tries to implement these instructions. The instructions are adapted to the active pair’s level. This exercise introduces outside input and inspires new ideas.
Required level: Experience with suspension.
The topic for this Keiko date will be announced soon.
Required level: The requirements will be announced together with the topic.
In Aijō Keiko, the focus is not on simply copying a technique, but on conscious understanding. For each session, a specific topic from Shibari, bondage or rope mechanics is prepared and introduced by Jack.
Based on this topic, participants work independently or together as a group on possible solutions, variations and applications.
Keiko is designed to strengthen the ability to master requirements independently. It is about recognising, evaluating and consciously applying the mechanics of rope work.
Existing knowledge is not only repeated, but questioned, combined and developed further. This creates a deeper understanding of structure, tension, body positions and safety within rope bondage.
Aijō Keiko is intended for people who want to deepen their Shibari and bondage practice and enjoy actively engaging with technique, structure and the design of rope ties.
It is especially suitable for participants who do not only want to learn new patterns, but want to understand why a tie works, which mechanics are involved and how existing techniques can be adapted in a meaningful way.
The individual topics are defined in advance and described on a separate webpage, so participants can prepare specifically for the training.
