In collaboration with:
Lila Tavata (she / her)
Lila began her shibari journey in France ten years ago and has since trained with various international instructors (Gorgone, Bingo, Naka, Hua Hua, Tamandua, and Kasumi Hourai, among others).
Over time, she felt that there was a lack of politicization and gender perspective in shibari, and she struggled to find riggers to tie with.
This led her to explore her rigger side further, and today, she teaches workshops and organizes spaces where she integrates her knowledge as both a model and a rigger, expressing her personal perspective in the practice of ropes.
