For some time now we have been hearing about Kinbaku (or Shibari), but what exactly is this particular Japanese practice?

Kinbaku means "Tight binding", the practice consists in tying the person with ropes recreating geometric patterns, seeking visual and sensorial perfection.

With this practice we try to express sensations and emotions through the body of a tied person, challenged by the rope, in an attempt to create a unique and unrepeatable moment.

In Kinbaku The use of precise aesthetic rules is very important: the schemes with which the rope is applied and the positions with which the other person is connected are fundamental.

Each knot, twist, shape created in the practice of Kinbaku assumes an important symbolic value.

In fact, the final goal is not to have total control of the tied person, but to create a work of visual art through the ropes.

The most popular ligature is the one in which at first glance the strings do not recreate a precise and defined order, but a particular and subtle harmony that can only be grasped by looking at the whole as a whole, giving life to a real work. of art, unique and unrepeatable.

In Kinbaku the relationship between the person who binds and the one who is bound also takes on profound importance.

Pain must be perceived as a moment to live, a mystical experience, it must be accepted and lived, not suffered.

The two protagonist souls have to get naked one in front of the other.

Whoever is tied up must totally abandon himself to trust in the person he binds, and the latter must be sure of the sincerity and transparency of whoever is tied up.

Kinbaku is therefore a strong experience, a deep journey into one's fears, insecurities, sufferings, both on one side and the other.

The two protagonists will have to deal with all these emotions, experiencing a profound experience that will exponentially increase confidence in themselves and in the other.
