Newbie Day!

Introduction to shibari

A welcoming space for newcomers to ask questions, learn the basics, and try their first steps in BDSM and rope.

Read full event program

BDSM is so huge and diverse that it’s impossible to define exactly what it is — everyone will have their own answer.
Some dive into the scene for new sensual experiences, some seek power dynamics or pain, some relax and reboot their minds through practices, while others challenge themselves and their partners. Which of these stories is about you?

If you’re curious about BDSM and don’t know where to begin — come to our Newbie Day! 🤗

During the evening you’ll be able to:
✨ try different practices with experienced masters
✨ watch interactions from the side
✨ ask any questions you may have
✨ meet new people and become part of a warm and friendly community

With us, you’ll have the opportunity to try:
🪢 shibari
⚡️ electroplay

And there’s also an interesting lectures in the program!

P.S. Of course, if you’re already experienced — we’d still love to see you there. Newbie Day is not only for beginners! More experienced participants can practice, broaden their visual experience, discuss interesting topics, and make new acquaintances

Introduction to Shibari

Beginner Workshop

Beginner-friendly workshop: basics, safety, first knots and ties.

Read full event program

Imagine: the rope glides softly over skin, breathing slows, the whole world narrows to a single touch and a gaze…
This isn’t just knots — it’s a deep, wordless conversation, trust pushed to the edge, beauty that sends shivers down your spine.

Program of the Introduction (14:00–17:00):

• History and Japanese roots: shibari ≠ kinbaku ≠ bondage
• Why people tie: aesthetics, connection, control, meditation, subspace
• Safety — how to prevent and handle injuries. What to do in critical situations
• Ropes from A to Z: which to choose, how to select and care for them
• Live demonstration of basic technique
• Hands-on practice: simple knots, ties on arms/body, securing to bed/furniture
• Open discussion and answers to all your questions
• Final action: mini-scene

✨ Ropes provided on site
🤝 No partner? We’ll match you with a model for practice

Impact Play Workshop

Flogging Basics

Technique, control, rhythm, and safety for beginners in spanking and flogging.

Read full event program

Spanking is not just about strikes.
It’s about contact, attention, and attunement.

About presence.
About boundaries.
About guiding the state — both your own and your partner’s.

This seminar is for complete beginners.
For those who feel drawn to it but don’t know where to start.

🖤 The workshop focuses on flexible short implements
floggers and short single-tails ⛓️

We will learn:

— how to hold and handle the implement, maintain a stable stance, and work with your body safely;
— how to deliver a strike — safely, accurately, and with control (practice will be on mats 🖤);
— how to recognize and build rhythms:
 • for warm-up,
 • for subspace,
 • for catharsis,
 • for exhaustion;
— how to choose technique, rhythm, and intensity for a specific state (subspace, catharsis, relaxation, arousal);
— understanding what conditions make it possible — and when the goal is unreachable;
feeling, adapting, and reading your partner’s body;
— giving proper aftercare and working with post-session states 🕯️

⚠️ Important:
The seminar focuses on technique and theory — no work with models will be done.
Practice will be done “in the air” and on mats, to understand mechanics and build precision.

💠 If you don’t have a model — we can help find one
💠 You can bring your own ropes or use ours
