Shibari Night Playground by Valkirija: " Bound in Silence " with Anna Valkirija
Тhe space gradually transforms into a nighttime Shibari Playground — a warm, safe, and sensual area for everyone who wishes to explore pair interaction or simply touch, trust, and bodily closeness through shibari.
This is not just a place for practice — it's an atmospheric, conceptual environment where bodies become canvases and ropes become brushes.
A place for cuddling, tying, lying close, dancing, and listening to a partner’s breath — all within clear boundaries, mutual consent, and deep respect.
Before the playground opens, there will be a introductory lecture by Valkirija:
- Basics of Safe Rope Interaction (Beginner/Mid Level)
- How to Listen to Your Partner Through Touch
- The Technical and Emotional Foundations of Consent and Respect.
Afterward — free time in a format of live but respectful interaction:
Couples can practice, explore, or simply be present with each other.
A floorwork session by Valkirija will offer a gentle, embodied introduction to contact improvisation on the floor — a way to learn your partner’s body language without words.
This will help participants immerse themselves in the atmosphere, feel the space, and experience the night as a tender, ritual dance.
