SHIBARI DANCE

Shibari is more than technique — it is presence, trust, and expression. In a 1 on 1 experience with Sacred Tie, the focus is entirely on you and your unique path. These private sessions are curated to meet your comfort level & curiosity, whether you are exploring rope for the very first time, deepening your practice, or seeking a transformative way to connect with yourself. Every knot, every pause, every breath is guided by safety, consent, artistry & connection.

FOUNDATIONAL
EXPLORATION

Foundational Exploration is the first step into the Sacred Tie journey. This beginner-friendly class is fully guided, hands-on, and open for people to watch and learn from every angle. Students come in with all kinds of feelings—curious, excited, nervous, open—and that’s exactly what this space is built for. You’ll learn the basics of rope handling, simple knots, and how to stay connected to your body and your partner. The Sacred Tie  atmosphere blends a little ritual, a little art, and a little healing work so you can explore safely while reconnecting with your own essence and presence.

By the end of this level, students walk out with real growth they can feel. You’ll gain confidence with beginner knots, clearer communication skills, more emotional awareness, and a grounded sense of being in your body. You’ll start letting go of old patterns, opening new space for yourself, and understanding connection—both with others and within yourself—on a deeper level. This is where the journey begins, and everything that comes next is built on the presence you learn here.

MINDFUL
CONNECTION

Mindful Connection is all about slowing down and tuning into what’s happening inside your body and between you and your partner. In this stage, students learn how breath, eye contact, and simple presence create a deeper sense of grounding. The focus isn’t on doing anything complicated—it’s about feeling the moment, noticing subtle shifts, and letting gentle tension guide you into a more settled, connected state. This is where people start to understand how rope, breath, and awareness can work together to create a calm, steady rhythm.

By the end of this level, students begin to feel the difference that mindful attention makes. They discover how soft tension can release stress, how breathing with intention creates trust, and how being fully present changes the entire experience of connection. It’s a simple practice with a big impact—helping people feel safe, centered, and more in touch with themselves and the person in front of them.

Artistic
Expression

Artistic Expression is where students start to explore the beauty side of rope. Instead of focusing only on technique, this stage invites you to see your body—or your partner’s body—as a living canvas. The ties become lines, curves, and shapes that highlight flow, movement, and form. It’s a space where creativity opens up and you get to play with how rope can frame the body, tell a story, or create a moment that feels visually and emotionally meaningful.

By the end of this level, students begin to understand how art and connection blend together. You’ll learn how to tie with intention, how to move with the rope, and how simple patterns can look elegant when matched with breath and presence. This is where people tap into their expressive side—discovering a style that feels natural to them and building confidence in creating something beautiful through rope.

INTEGRATION
+ AFTERCARE

Integration & Aftercare is the final part of every session, where everything slows down and settles into the body. This is the moment to breathe, reconnect, and let the experience sink in. Students are guided through simple grounding practices, gentle touch, and reflection so their nervous system can return to a calm, steady place. It’s a space to check in with yourself, notice what shifted, and honor the experience you just had.

By the end of this stage, students leave feeling balanced, supported, and clear. Aftercare helps release any leftover tension, brings emotions back into harmony, and gives you time to understand your own responses. Whether it’s through soothing contact, conversation, journaling, or rest, the goal is to make sure you walk away feeling held, centered, and fully integrated. It completes the journey in a way that feels safe, mindful, and deeply respectful.
