Shibari is a beautiful paradox that invites you to unravel your inner bondage while being bonded. it is also a dance between surrender and action for the depth of the practice can only go as deep as you allow yourself to soften into your resistance. it’s an opportunity to meet yourself in an entirely new way, while being held in Amana’s sweet embrace. 

 The practitioner you choose is fundamental and with Amana, at all moments of the practice I felt an unwavering presence physically and energetically. it was a space where I could let go and dissolve. Allowing my body to be held and moved in a way it has been asking for. Amana has a gift to merge into the space with you; it’s innate and not something that can be taught. He will meet you where you’re at and invite you further and deeper into the unknown parts of your body, heart and mind. 

 Before the session I found myself closed off and fearful to allow someone to support me and yet I could feel my body screaming Yes. If you find yourself here, don’t think any further and if you have any preconceived ideas of Shibari, know that the experience itself is not conceivable. Amana will guide you on a transformation journey when you are ready.

Shibari is not a practice I am able to express intellectually. It seems to be a practice that invites you; when you are ready and willing. if you find yourself reading this - congratulations the invitation itself is the beginning of the unraveling process.
