Kanna and Kagura

With deep sadness and regret, the Kasumi Hourai Tour in Spain by Espacio Nos is cancelled for September 2026 due to unforeseen health circumstances that won't allow me, Pauline Massimo, as an organizer and full responsible of the tour management to continue forward.

All workshops, performances, and private bookings participants were informed via email already and will receive a refund for their reservations made so far. For any future interested participants, I will not accept any bookings and reservations so far, but I kindly redirect everyone who is interested in Kasumi Hourai's work to please contact her in case you ever plan to visit Japan to take private lessons and sessions with her, as well as buy her books and DVDs. 

Kasumi and her team were impeccable, professional, and very kind. It was a privilege to host her for the first time in Barcelona in 2025, as well as being given the opportunity and trust once more to produce this tour in Spain between Madrid and Barcelona.

 

The full responsibility for this cancelation is coming from my side as the organizer, and this was an extremely difficult decision to make. Coming to disappoint so many people in the process is heartbreaking. But I had to come to terms with this sad resolution, as I will not be able to fully work or to be present from the end of July to possibly the beginning of October.

And for that, I ask you all for support and understanding.

 

I send to you all my sincerest apology for my decision and its outcome; I hope it's met with understanding. And especially to Kasumi, who wished so enthusiastically to visit Spain again to reconnect with its culture as well as with old and new students, as well as to my dear collaborators in this tour: Asami Hime as the model, Kanako Ono as the translator, and other guests as performers, etc.

 

I wish everyone a healthy and bright life and journey in your Shibari practice.

Thank you so much for your understanding and patience,

Pauline Massimo x Espacio Nos.
