There will be a transportation fee if the teaching is to take place elsewhere. Teaching could possibly also be done in an online class Zoom meeting for similar prices, provided we can get good enough connection and picture quality hard to teach if I cannot see the knots in your ropes and verify safety.
For going from a complete newbie to some basic confidence would take about 4 days of teaching plus own practice in between. But an individual program would be made depending on what you come with of skills and what your goals are. In we got several happy couples started on Shibari and had a whole bachelorette party having fun with rope games. For more information about teaching you can contact us on: allan shibari-shamanism. Though, only for doms, as I am monogamous with my submissive.
Questions from subs we can however answer together, so feel free to write to us. Exactly what kind of mentoring is up to you, as everyone is different. The goal is to find your personal way to express yourself and help you to bring it forth.
My own road was long and at times surprising - for ex. It required the totally right submissive before it caught me. The word "Shibari" means "to tie", so it is a fancy word for tying one's partner, just like the English word "bondage". But the Japanese added more unique angle to it. One can consider it as an erotic art form. A non-sexual way to have an incredibly intimate experience.
Or seen from the stressful life of a Japanese: It is an unheard of luxury to be able to take an entire evening and just relax and enjoy. A kind of erotic tea ceremony, with rope and present. I have experienced that many Tantra people are attracted to Shibari in this gentle style.
