FLUID SHIBARI'S GENTLE DANCE

ASSFEST M24 | 13.04.24 | MOSS STUDIOS | NAARM (MELBOURNE)

We often focus on what patterns we tie. This class will focus on small hand movements that will make your rope flow and come alive. Fluid rope mesmerizes both the rigger and the person being tied.

One of the unique aspects of this class is its versatility. The skills you'll acquire here can be applied to any tie, allowing you to unleash your creativity and personalise your Shibari practice. Whether you're interested in decorative ties, functional restraints, or exploring the sensual side of Shibari, mastering these subtle hand movements will be invaluable.

PRECIPICE MALUM

STUDIO KINK

Precipice is a Dominant, sadist, rigger, performer, educator and the owner of a wonderfully evil mind. With a specific focus on the mental aspects of BDSM, Precipice is known for his ability to weave ritual, energy, and rope into transformative experiences. With years of practice in both traditional and experimental techniques, Precipice approaches each scene as a sacred act, carefully crafting atmospheres that transcend the physical. His work blends intention and intuition, using ritualistic elements to guide participants and observers into altered states of awareness. Whether through deliberate breathwork, symbolic gestures, or the rhythmic cadence of tying, he creates spaces where time and reality seem to blur, inviting deep emotional and spiritual exploration.

Central to Precipice's philosophy is the belief that rope is a conduit for energy—a tool to connect, ground, and elevate. In his scenes, the interplay of tension, movement, and stillness serves as a medium for shifting perception and unlocking hidden aspects of self. His use of ritual amplifies the emotional resonance of each moment, transforming the rope into a vehicle for storytelling and catharsis. By integrating these elements, Precipice crafts experiences that are as much about connection and growth as they are about the aesthetics and skill of shibari, leaving a profound and lasting impact on all who engage with his art.

Rope is but one thread in the tapestry of tools he weaves to shape profound and transformative experiences.

Since 2015, as a founding member of Studio Kink Sydney, Precipice has continued to utilise his broad knowledge-base and passion for teaching to enrich and enliven the kink community.
