This set of phrases go over some concepts that we hope may help understand their own shibari kinbaku developement path of other rope lovers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">If any of the following phrases resonates with what you feel during your shibari practices, we would love to know it. If you happen to think of ideas alike we would be glad to hear about them and add them to our set. This way we aim to\u00a0nurture each other with our passion for shibari kinbaku.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">Shibari Kinbaku art is not related to knots or ropes, but to what we provoke with them when tying.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">We do not aim for the rope to look beautiful on our models. Instead we use rope to enhance your models&#8217; beauty.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">Gratitude is the key that opens it all. Never forget to thank everyone involved (models, teachers, audience, even those who hate you).<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">Practice is your best ally and your perfect weapon. Do never quit practicing. You have never practiced enough.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">Not taking into account hundreds of years of experience and Japanese traditions is foolish. Limiting yourself to just copy structures without any personal contribution doesn&#8217;t have much merit.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">Make and feel the rope as part of your body.\u00a0 Know it, master it, understand how it works. Only this way you would be able to hug with your ropes in the same way that you do with your arms.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">Take your time to know your rope model. You may think that you already know that person from yesterday, one month ago, or many years ago&#8230;\u00a0 But always remember that we are unique in our <em>here and now. <\/em>May the person you thought you knew, surprise you with his\/her\u00a0<em>here and now.<\/em><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">Never allow your ropes to become a task or something <em>&#8220;you must do<\/em>&#8220;.\u00a0 Ropes are meant to be enjoyed.\u00a0 Other way the magic of the ropes gets lost.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">From our humble point of view it&#8217;s better not to use shibari as a mere excuse for your sexual purposes. Instead, let the sensual way of the ropes freely flow as a natural consequence. It will happen by itself if it&#8217;s meant to happen.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">Our style of Shibari Kinbaku does not necesarilly involve a D\/s role. In our humble oppinion we feel that limitting this practice just to that is to minimize it&#8217;s real power and beauty.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">If ropes make you happy&#8230; practice until you get exausted. Then take your ropes and practice a bit more&#8230;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">We do not tie just for the photo.\u00a0 We aim to make any moment of our Shibari Kinbaku session a memorable picture.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">We aim to teach our students how to avoid boredom in ropes. Ropes should speak, sing, dance, shout or cry&#8230; and you can use all this to show your particular feelings at any moment.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">Rigging tighter does not necessarilly mean you&#8217;re communicating more.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">Rigging loose does not necessarilly mean you communicate less.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">Lack of tension in ropes may not mean you&#8217;re rigging safer, in fact under certain circunstances it may lead to problems.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">Always remember that nawa is the extension of your arms.\u00a0 As the Great Yukimura Haruki used to say, the less you touch with your hands, the more magic you&#8217;ll have on your ropes.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">Always focus better on communication instead of thinking how that pattern goes.\u00a0 But also keep always in mind that everything you propose would impact on what you&#8217;re communicating to the model.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">Never forget to smile. Even when you&#8217;d not be visiblly similing, your energy will flow through your ropes. Always bring your best energy to the person that shares that rope session with you as a model.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\"><span id=\"result_box\" class=\"\" lang=\"en\"><span class=\"\">I would love to thank all the people who accompanied me on my shibari developement path.\u00a0 Thanks to my Senseis, to my colleagues around the world, thanks to all the models I&#8217;ve met, students, Dojo friends, and artists who have always collaborated with us in these almost four years of hard work in teaching the<\/span> <span class=\"\">art of Kinbaku. As we already expressed in our Shibari Attack project, every relationship in the shibari world has a twist and generates such a special bound that makes each of our moves part of the whole rope community. Nothing that we do is individual and in the same way as a big rope structure, every move we make provokes something in other people.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">\u5e78\u305b\u306a \u7e04\u00a0 (Merry Nawa)<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a style=\"font-family: 'MS Mincho'; font-size: medium;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.kinbakumania.com\/harutsubaki\"><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"cameliaanimadakg6\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kinbakumania.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/cameliaanimadakg61.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"32\" height=\"57\" \/><\/a><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: medium;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.kinbakumania.com\/harutsubaki\">Haru Tsubaki<\/a><\/strong><\/span><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"font-family: 'MS Mincho'; font-size: medium;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kinbakumania.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/TsubakinoHanko.gif\" alt=\"HaruTsubaki\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Shibari style we promote at KinbakuMania Shibari Dojo and ShibariMania.com, is related to an energetic, holistic, artistic and healing approach to the \n<a class=\"moretag\" href=\"https:\/\/www.kinbakumania.com\/en\/sobre-nuestro-estilo-de-shibari\/\"> [...]<\/a>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":6159,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[103,46,79,95,40,22,97,8],"class_list":["post-6080","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-articulos","tag-art","tag-good_practices","tag-ensenanza","tag-harutsubaki","tag-honor","tag-kinbaku","tag-modelos-de-cuerda","tag-seguridad"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kinbakumania.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6080","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kinbakumania.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kinbakumania.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kinbakumania.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kinbakumania.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6080"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.kinbakumania.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6080\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6525,"href":"https:\/\/www.kinbakumania.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6080\/revisions\/6525"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kinbakumania.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6159"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kinbakumania.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6080"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kinbakumania.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6080"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kinbakumania.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6080"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
