The Introduction to Japanese Rope Bondage class is our entry level class for those who are curious to learn about the art of Shibari/Kinbaku and begin their journey. Even if you have a little experience already, it's still recommended to attend the Intro class for a full overview of the curriculum offered at the Toronto Kinbaku Salon and to gain a deeper understanding of the single column tie.
Students are welcome to attend this class by themselves or with a partner, however the material is single friendly and can be tied on your own ankles. Students are encouraged to bring their own rope if they have it. If not, The Salon has plenty of house rope for students to practice with. Have questions? Take a look at our Stuff to Know page or ask us: TorontoKinbakuSalon@gmail.com
