The Shibari Suspension Techniques: Level I bundle effectively gives you the specific ties used in these tutorials, Nina’s hip-harness and Contemporary gote for free when you subscribe to all the first three parts of Shibari Suspension Techniques. It is not intended to be an ‘everything you need to know about’ suspension since this subject deserves proper attention. However, assuming you have some solid basic skills, these classes will help you begin suspension safely and create a solid skill set upon which you can build. As with all our tutorials, they go into a lot of depth so you understand the ingredients that you are using and how they behave. For example, there are 2 hours of video tutorial in Part III alone. This means you will be able to start to spot and correct your own mistakes but, most importantly, tie with confidence, creativity and feeling.
In these tutorials, we will take you through hip harness based suspensions and a simple, yet impressive and low risk, Running Man suspension. In the process you’ll pick up a lot of tips gained from years of experience and some of the best teaching available. It’s amazing how some minor changes in the way you work, which might take you years to figure out yourself, can yield massive results.
Whilst what you will learn here can greatly accelerate your progress, please do not use this as a short cut and exclude the basics. You need underlying competence. If you are not already doing fairly complex ties and have some experience, go back to practice and study so more. Make sure you have absorbed the information on nerve injury and common mistakes. Tying Techniques is a great help, even if you already know some rope, since it teaches some very useful handling techniques and lays essential foundations.
If you need help or have questions, like all our material, there’s a Q&A section where we can help you with even the option of live 1-2-1 mentoring.
