– Conscious touch, Shibari & Tantric Massage –
— * —
For one evening and full day we invite you to dive in to the colourful world of Shibari.
We invite you to go deeply into the experience, using rope and touch for conscious contact with your partner.
The workshop is suitable to beginners and those who already have some experience with Shibari. We will work in couples and both of you will get the chance to learn each pattern and topic and explore both as giver and receiver.
The whole time we will work on the floor and do not go into suspensions (maybe you saw that in some Shibari show or video).
ABOUT SHIBARI
Shibari is based on the flow, dynamics and feelings between partners. The rope is a flexible medium with an infinite amount of faces and moods, it can work like a door to many different spaces. It helps you explore the limitations that you hold in your mind.
Shibari has its origins 400 years ago in Japan and originates from Hojo-jutsu.
In the 19th century it turned in to the Shibari. In the first half of 20th century it became modern style of Shibari as it is known today.

JANEK SLONC (32) came in touch with Family Constellations from 2011. Since then he worked with bodywork, conscious touch and shamanistic techniques. In 2014 he finished a one and half year training with Peter Malek and Magdalena Sloncova.
Janek started his journey In the Shibari / Kinbaku since 2013 and from 2014 he is leading his own workshops with Shibari including techniques of Tantra and bodywork. Within this work he is focused on creating a safe space for exploration and a deep contact between the partners with an open heart. This seems always to bring joy, pleasure and an ability to accept everything that appears.
DAGI MICIKOVA (28) “I live in Prague where I offer tantric massage sessions and organise self development seminars and talks particularly focussed on tantra and conscious sexuality. 7 years ago I first met with tantra and started to change my attitude towards sexuality and connections with other human beings in endless ways. As a tantric masseuse and tantra community involved person, I had to get to know Shibari sooner or later. Janek was the one who introduced me almost 3 years ago and since then I started to explore it. I found out it is a very powerful tool to get to know myself more, to explore the parts of my soul which are usually hidden and deeply suppressed, to connect more to my body, to surrender completely without having my mind controlling the situation all the time. I believe ropes are a very profound tool for bringing clarity, intention and presence in giving love and are often wrongly understood and judged by many people.”
