Description
Peer Rope Melbourne is starting a new Beginner 1 course for July 2026!
It will run for four weeks, on Wednesday nights from July 8th from 7 pm to 9 pm Brunswick.
Great news! This makes it the perfect opportunity to explore the world of Shibari. This course is designed for beginners and anyone who needs to refresh the basics.
During these classes, we'll talk about the history of shibari, terminology, the different types of ropes, and which one to choose and how to take care of them. We'll also focus on creating good communication and setting and maintaining healthy boundaries between the rigger and the rope model to create a safe and fun experience.
The instructor Jess (starlove.shibari) will guide you through essential traditional ties, such as single and double-column ties, leg and arm ties, half-hitch and much more, ensuring you develop a strong foundation in rope bondage. You'll start to understand tensions and frictions and their importance in creating safe ties. With no prior experience required, this course promises to be an exciting journey into the captivating art of Shibari. Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to expand your skills and connect with like-minded individuals.

Your facilitator this month is the talented @Sylb !
Sylb (she/her) is a rope performer and educator who has been teaching rope since 2021 with a primary focus on self-tying and self-suspension.
Her experience in rope spans self-tying, and both giving and receiving rope in a variety of styles. Sylb’s style borrows from both eastern and western rope, blending approaches according to the intent of the tie, the needs of the person receiving rope and the environment. She loves to explore physicality and self-expression in rope through contrast in movement and stillness, and uses rope as a tool for communication, trust and intimacy.
Sylb has lived experience with disability including chronic pain, hypermobility (EDS) and POTS. She strongly believes that rope can be for everyone and is always happy to workshop adjustments to techniques to support individual needs. She will be teaching on Wednesdays on Northside.
