I'd like some shibari&suspension basics.

Hello everyone. :p

I would love if anyone could give me some directions of free sites wich teach shibari basics as well as suspension. I'd gladly pay for it were not for my credicard be only valid in my own country... :(

Hi Walace,

Only parts of the bondageproject.com website are free, but it contains some basic information.
Knots and techniques
Rope
Suspension
Physics
Shibari history

Especially suspension seems to be a tricky and dangerous matter requiring a lot of practise. The shibari workshop at http://rare.ropemarks.com is for pay, but perhaps you could email the people at bondageproject.com and ropemarks.com and ask if they know anyone in Brazil who teaches shibari.

Great for starting out

http://www.desejosecreto.com.br has a short shibari article. Part 1 . Part 2 .

This is the site of ‘Highlander’ in São Paulo.

More rope bondage: Here’s a Japanese site with a number of techniques. To view the tying procedures in step by step photos, click on the Japanese yellow text in brackets next to a photo (not all the links work yet).

If only there were someone who knew Japanese around here, they could translate the written instructions for us... any takers?

Thank you, lady Hanai. And you did even look into brazilian sites. Sweet!!! I'm already member of the brazilian groups, but your effots were admirable. Thanks, thanks, thanks. :p

I owe you one, for watever I may help. ;)

You are welcome, Walace. I am at present attempting to learn some of this stuff too, so I have been looking around for sources.

Here are some more.
