The theme for the workshop is the heart of Japanese beauty and way of tying. Kasumi Hourai teaches the basics applications, transitions and techniques of her style but also some safety measures that allow you to focus on the deep, loving connection and careful handling in shibari practice.
Kasumi Hourai takes a lot of inspiration from e.g. ikebana and this workshop focuses on combining distinctive Japanese beauty with kinbaku including tokonawa (semenawa when lying down).
