I've recently discovered my passion for the art of Shibari, and my let's call it "talent" in executing some basic forms for now. I am wondering if anyone use manuals or websites or dvd, anything you guys use, I'll need some reviews and advices from users. Thank you!

best place I've ever found to learn this is at play parties. There's always at least one or two who are doing it.

MercTech -> RE: Shibari (8/6/2012 5:09:00 PM)
I still often use skills out of a BM rate training manual.. the section of fancy knotwork. (BM... Navy Speak for Boatswain's Mate)

dananddawn -> RE: Shibari (8/6/2012 5:47:22 PM)
There is always shibari con of course...

I learned all my knots with string on dolls. It's easier to experiment and refer back to whatever video/article you're using. Stuffed bears worked best. >.> Don't you judge me.

you can youtube Two knotty boys- they give very good step by step instructions... they also have a book. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7hjO8f1beck

Practice, practice, practice... and learn the way that works best for you. I do well with books, and I enjoyed the seminar with Esinem, but I really learn best by looking at what I want to do and figuring out how to do it on my own.

Thank you all so far! I think with the Two Knotty Boys and some other books I found online I hit the jackpot! Now off to practice, I might take the suggestion of using a doll. You guys wanna hear something funny? I wouldn't be embarassed if my mailman finds I ordered a bondage kit as much as he finds I ordered a doll. ;)

If you want some real information from one of the 'Masters' take a look at http://esinem.com/ or look up Bruce Argue on Twitter. He does give online lessons but more than anything I think he will give you a lot inspiration.

He is on this site somewhere, but I think more forums on rope over at fet.

Get a doll at a yard sale or at a dollar store, it's for your imaginary cousin.

Here are three links I have in my favorites: http://luvbight.com/fetish/handouts/karadas.html http://www.freetied.com/articles/bondage/rope_harness.php https://accounts.google.com/ServiceLoginAuth The last kink includes an age verification requirement. I found these sites, and many others, by simply googling. I just started Shibari with my sub about a month or six weeks ago; it is VERY mutually satisfying. And the subject itself has some wonderful depth, history, and a few dashes of grace, class and style... DEFINITELY warrants investigation, practice and more practice... excellence in technique and understanding, and honoring tradition, are wonderful things. I hope you get the satisfaction we do out of this ancient Japanese ritual...

aSilentNight -> RE: Shibari (8/8/2012 7:09:11 AM)
previous post: the third link is faulty xD to OP: watch out for blood flow and suffocation, creativity and navy knots will do the rest

littlewonder -> RE: Shibari (8/8/2012 2:00:50 PM)
There's a guy around on Fetlife and Bondage.com that I've known for a few years online who is into rope and bondage and shibari. His name is The HungryTiger. He also has a website where he sells bondage ropes and accessories, www.kinkropes.com. I haven't seen him around in awhile but if you run into him he can give you lots of advice. He's a rope bondage purist and not into all the bdsm stuff. But he definitely knows his bondage.

Lucifyre -> RE: Shibari (8/8/2012 5:51:53 PM)
Also Lew Reubans and Phillip the Foole come to mind as well (I wish Mr had the patience to learn rope bondage sniffle) Lucifyre

CountZer0 -> RE: Shibari (8/10/2012 3:56:00 AM)
Wow guys, you are the best ;)

Thaz -> RE: Shibari (8/10/2012 11:34:03 AM)
Twisted monk has some nice basic video's. I like his clear style and I love his 'rope slut' wife and her giggles.

guilty1974 glad someone said it! CountZero enjoy http://www.encordees.com/pas_menu.html french website, has a few interesting ties, with tutorials http://www.osadasteve.com/ i love this guy, great site for inspiration. http://www.japanrope.com/tutorial.html 7 tutorials, nice starts simple and gets better. http://www.massachusettsbondage.com/tutorials/ a plethora of ties, a few on the links are dead, but good to go through. also leads off to some nice other sites. http://www.bdsm-chicago.com/cram/CRAM_tuts.html this has been updated since i last looked but worth clocking around. http://www.japaneseropeart.com/RopeArt/tutorials.html a few tutorials in the left pane. http://www.monkeyfetish.com/content/ good for inspiration and a few tutorials http://www.ropemarks.com/site/portfolio/index.php plenty of inspiration http://www.cepemo.com/TKB.html this is two knotty boys, i recommend looking at the sliding sheet bend its very good for tying hair to things, and can be adjusted. http://naturallytwisted.co/ may have put this one down already but hey. well i hope that helps. oh and as a side note, if you do get a doll you will need to be careful of learning bad habits pulling rope through against the skin quickly, tying too tightly and so one. the skills are transferable but you need to be careful. the book i bought was from.. http://completeshibari.com/ you can by land and sky and you also can get the better built bondage book which is filled with DIY BDSM equipment Practice doesn't make perfect it makes permanent.
