Restricted movements (Inma and Pauline) + Shibari Jam

Community class by Inma Sáez (her) and Pauline Massimo (elle)

Theme: Restricted Movements + Shibari Jam

About the class.

This community class will expose some useful concepts and exercises for those who want to explore movement in Shibari with influence on contemporary dance, both in pairs and alone. There will be exercises adapted for everyone. Inma will present most of the agenda and practical exercises for those who come as pairs, where one person will tie the other and apply to each role. Pauline will use the content presented by Inma and apply it for practical exercises for those who come alone or want to try without a partner, self-tying. We recommend that you be open to role-swapping as well as trying self-tie in these exercises to explore different nuances of movement with the Shibari.

About our community events:

If you see marked in some events as "community", that means that it will be given to people who are part of our community in Espacio Nos. These people usually have a direct link and collaborate in a participatory, proactive way to create a safer space , collaborative and that is a more heterarchical community (organizational system that predominates a consensual order). We give the space and opportunities to people of different roots, history and diverse experiences inside and outside of Shibari who can contribute their bit to our community and the people who visit and participate in us.

The events classified as community have a minimum donation base to participate, thus contributing to enhance the effort of each facilitator with a circular economy. You can donate as much as you want before and after the event and the space will keep a much smaller portion to help contribute to keeping it open, all the while trying to democratize the accessibility of Shibari education and diversify the different means of learning. If you find yourself in a difficult financial situation, you can request free access in the event that the online tickets are not available. We have limited capacity, even if it is low donations, seriousness is requested in attending and notify before if the assistance is canceled. Read the regulations, ticket policies and others before booking.

Please read our terms and conditions carefully as we have a strict policy regarding exchanges and refunds.
