顧名思義，神凪流責繩工作坊將帶學員認識日本知名繩師明智神凪風格的繩縛。神凪是日本首屈一指的職業繩師。身為明智伝鬼的傳人，神凪向捕繩術汲取靈感，創建了一種以嚴厲拘束感、徹底控制人體、又經常限制呼吸為風格的責繩。明智神凪與繩縛模特兒明智神樂的信條是：「我們相信繩縛沒有性別或邊界，繩縛應該屬於每個人，並且繩手或受縛者都可得到喜悅。」

This class is an introduction to the foundations of Kanna-ryū, the Japanese rope bondage style of Akechi Kanna (明智 神凪). Kanna is a leading Japanese rope artist. As a successor of Akechi Denki (明智伝鬼), they have developed a semenawa style (tormenting ropes) which draws inspiration from Hojojutsu. Kanna's style is restrictive, includes complete control of the body and often plays with the breath. Kanna and their partner Kagura declare: "We believe that rope has no gender or borders, and rope should be for everyone and could be fun for both the rigger and the model."

Juju回來啦！這個工作坊著重於如何在繩縛中帶入更多的連結感。通過一些簡單的練習，我們將探討什麼是連結，以及如何更準確地向你的繩模傳達你的意圖。Juju分享他通過十年的環球經歷及多重影響所凝聚的繩縛視野與哲學。這並不是一個技術性的工作坊，而是一種全方位的繩縛體驗。別忘了，繩縛自由有如畫布，讓我們能夠盡情展現解放自己的美。

​

Juju is back!  
This workshop focuses on how to bring more connection into your tying. Through simple exercises, we'll see what we mean by connection and how to convey your intention to your model more accurately. Juju will share his vision and philosophy of Shibari, which he gathered through 10 years of experience around the globe and many influences. It is not a technical workshop per se, but rather a holistic approach to Shibari. Let's not forget that ropes are just a canvas that we use to paint the beauty of letting go.
