Status: offline 		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!

Status: offline 		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. ;)

I like these guys, I've watched their work before. Very straightforward and easy to follow!

B actually has a tutorial DVD out.   He is on this site somewhere, but I think more forums on rope over at fet.

Status: offline 		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...

Status: offline 		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.

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.
