EXPLORING MIND-BODY CONNECTIONS THROUGH ROPE!

ABOUT US

Boundless Bonds is dedicated to promoting mental, emotional and physical wellbeing by helping individuals connect with themselves, their partners and their community. One of the ways we do this is through a body-centred rope tying practice that has its historical roots in the ancient art of Japanese Shibari. Shibari has transcended its roots to become a diverse and enriching practice of artistic expression that emphasizes the beauty of intricate rope patterns and the human form. Beyond aesthetics, shibari has also found a place in mindfulness and connection, serving as a form of meditative practice that fosters presence and trust among participants. At Boundless Bonds we've woven aspects of the ancient art of Japanese Shibari into a contemporary body-centred mindfulness approach, where the focus is on cultivating mental and physical wellbeing using the sensations of rope as a point of focus. Becoming proficient in rope handling and tying techniques enables participants to optimise the benefits of this practice and to that end, Boundless Bonds periodically runs workshops and rope social events. This event is open to anyone who would like to explore and engage with this enriching wellbeing practice.

Participants attend at their own risk but safety, consent and risk awareness are discussed prior to tying activities.

ABOUT THIS EVENT

Chest Harness Workshop and Social Tying Time

This event provides an opportunity to build on the previous Boundless Bonds basics workshops and is comprised of a 2 hour practical hands-on workshop and 1 hour free-tying social time.

In the workshop session we will be exploring tensioning and placement of rope through 2 different hands free chest harnesses. This workshop is aimed at an intermediate beginner level and is suitable for adults self-tying or tying with a partner.

Free-tying social time is an opportunity to connect with others who also enjoy body-centred rope tying or to simply enjoy your own practice in the company of others.
