Wanna get your horny playmate all tied up? 😩 Looking to take your rope play to the next naughty level? 😜
Create elaborate rope patterns on your skin with the ancient Japanese erotic art of ✨Shibari✨.
Let’s explore… 👇
Shibari—Japanese for “tying”—and Kinbaku—“tight binding”—are interchangeable terms for intricate rope play. As a kink, it has an artistic approach. 🖌️ You shift your focus to the complexity of your technique and the beauty of the shapes and lines you’re creating, rather than just the act of restraint or pain. Though, of course, both can be involved too... 😈😩
Above all, Shibari is a sensory experience, where the rope is an extension of touch. ✨🖐️ Stimulate every nook and cranny of their trembling body with your powerful hands. 💪🥵
Before we learn how to get started, it’s good to know your history. Shibari is an ancient Japanese practice, but it’s not always been erotic. 🤔
So, we know that shackles and chains were used to restrain prisoners in Western Europe. That’s where local kinksters got their inspiration for using chains in BDSM. ⛓😈 In a similar way, Japanese kinksters found erotic inspiration in the tales of captured maidens from centuries past. Nowadays, this has inspired kinksters worldwide to take up Shibari. Instead of being used as a technique of torture, it’s embraced among consenting adults who live for the erotic thrill of feeling helpless, as well as the intoxicating patterns and shapes you can create with those two simple tools: your body and a piece of rope. 😵💫
Learn all about which ropes to choose and how to tie a basic knot with our guide to beginner’s rope play.
As a quick refresher, we recommend cotton ropes as a good all-rounder – strong hold, but also soft on the skin. 🥰
Shibari is adaptable to bodies of all shapes, and the only required equipment is the rope itself. 😝 It’s playful, sensual, tender – all about enhancing the eroticism of physical contact. ⚡ Experts and novices alike will tell you that getting into the mentality of Shibari is more important than the technique itself. 🧘 Feel the rope caressing your tender skin, and give yourself up to the mercy of your playmate. 🤤
As with any BDSM play, you gotta chat about your fantasies in advance, covering boundaries, limits, and safewords. 👌
As a precaution, it's a good idea to keep a pair of sharp scissors or EMT shears nearby to cut the rope quickly if you need to. ✂️ Ropes can be replaced, trust cannot! 🙏
For your first tie, start in familiar territory: how do you like to fuck? 🫦 Get into your favorite sex position, and let your playmate tie you up like that.
It doesn’t have to be technically advanced for you to have fun, either – you’re allowed to be silly and giggle through it. 🤭 Sex is about joy, right? 👅
If you’re keen to take your skills further, go to a class in your local area and chat to an instructor. 👋 Not sure what to find that? Kinky connections at a BDSM Munch may be able to point you in the right direction. 🍔😉
Let’s go through one of our favorite Shibari patterns. ✨
Start by folding your rope in half. You’ll be keeping your working ends (that is, the two ends of the rope) together the whole time. Hold the bight (that is, the folded end) in the middle of your Sub’s back, and pass the working ends round their torso and through the middle of the bight. Pull the working ends back the way they came from to tighten the knot.
💡 Rope Safety Tip: You should be able to place two fingers comfortably under any section of tied rope at all times. If you can’t, it’s too tight to be safe. 🙅 Don’t worry, they’ll still be well secured… 😈
Next, take your working ends back round the torso, remembering that you’re switching directions to keep the rope held. Once you’ve come all the way round again, pass the working ends through the loop you just made, and switch directions once more to tighten. Your Sub should now have one connected loop around their torso, four pieces of rope wide. 👌
You’re gonna continue with this same technique, but this time bringing the ropes a little higher to create another loop around their chest, just under their armpits. ➰
💡 Shibari Tip: Remember, it’s more about the journey than the destination. Drag the rope slowly along your Sub’s red-hot skin as you make your loops. 🥵 Breathe softly in their ear to leave them tingling. 😩🤤
This time, you wanna raise your rope up before bringing the ends all the way round your Sub’s chest. Next, bring the ends under the loop you just made before pulling back in the opposite direction, like we did before. You should now have a T-shape above your original torso loop. To finish this off, take your ends back around the chest in the opposite direction, all the way round, and through the loop once more, like we did around the torso, pulling back one more time in the opposite direction to tighten. 😜
From here, wrap your rope a few times around the cross of the T to secure it in place. 😉
Congratulations, you just made your first rope harness! 🥳
Now, sit back and admire your beautiful handiwork – and your sexy model, of course! 😍 Subs, let go of your feelings of control, and focus on the erotic sensation of rope on tender skin. 🫦
Whatever you do next with your kinky creation is up to the two (or more) of you… 😈

There are loads of books readily available as well. I would suggest practice tying with a partner with clothes on as well I.e. outside of play time. Stretching before and after is also very worthwhile. Keep it simple until you have knowledge. |
