Lead with Vision
Leading a creative team takes confidence and skill.
Matt works with 5 different models bringing together complex themed shoots with particular images in mind. He teaches you how to communicate with your model, how to tie the knots in detail, and how to photograph them effectively.

Safety
Shibari comes with risks, and everyone on the team needs to be aware, careful and consenting.
Safety is paramount - a higher priority that making the shot. We teach you areas to avoid, where not to knot, and much more. Before getting started you must take the time to learn the correct + Safe way.
-
Consent
Whether for photos or for play, consent is always required. Everyone must clearly understand and agree to the Shibari process and goals.

Aftercare
Shibari can be an intense experience, for the model and the person tying. Understanding and communicating what kind of post rope care you each require is an important part of the process and will lead to more satisfying sessions.
