Max's Bondage Workshop Series: Exploring Shibari - Creative Ebi / Gyaku Ebi Positions featuring Mark Yu - 05/03/09

The Ebi and its reverse, the Gyaku Ebi are some of the oldest Shibari ties known. Both of these and their variations have been used in military and law enforcement contexts such as interrogation and torture for centuries.

That makes them perfect for our use!

Since they are vigorous and demanding ties that involve difficult positions, they are recommended for intermediate and advanced players who enjoy and are in condition for strict bondage and tough play.

Variations on tying and play techniques for these positions will be shown.

Safety and the bio-mechanics of these ties will be covered in detail.

Come learn all the play possibilities that come with this classically beautiful and elegantly evil shibari tie.

Some rope will be provided for the workshop, but bring six 30-foot lengths of 6mm hemp if you can.

If you don't have suitable rope, TwistedMonk.com will be selling hemp rope before the workshop. Please show up 15 minutes early if you would like to buy rope.

This workshop assumes no previous bondage experience, and is appropriate for all genders and orientations.
