  Enroll in Course

Save over $2,500: Lifetime access to all 12 parts for the price of one!

This bundle includes all 12 parts of our in-depth shibari suspension series, which is the most comprehensive course ever produced with many hours of video tutorials, documentation and numerous examples of suspensions by top performers.

If you have mastered the basics of shibari and now want to learn suspension, this is a perfect online course as it takes you from the first steps using safe hip-harness based ties to advanced suspensions and transitions. For barely the price of their individual monthly subscriptions, you get lifetime access so you can absorb and practice all the content at your leisure without pressure. If you are serious about learning suspension, it makes far more sense to invest in this bundle since subscribing to each for a month would cost about the same but you get all the extras and twelve times the time to properly study, practice and revise without worrying about subscriptions over-running.

You can see the full list of included courses further down the page.

This offer also includes:

Live video mentoring

We include one hour's personal mentoring and assessment via web cam to check your work and get advice live from Nina and/or Esinem. We can check for safety and fine tune your tying. You can use the time how you wish or add more time if you need it.

Student video feedback

In addition, you can also upload your own videos directly from your computer or via DropBox for feedback and assistance using an easy to use interface. No more wondering if you are doing things right, professional help is at hand.

Free access the the Esinem members' area

ShibariClasses students free full access to all the content from the membership area of my web site. There are over 220 videos, many of which are exclusive to this site, of top western and Japanese performers including Osada Steve, Kinoko Hajime, Akira Naka and Kazami Ranki, plus 1,000s of photos. A perfect source of inspiration.

Esinem & Nina Russ
Esinem & Nina Russ

Esinem is a shibari artist who has regularly appeared at UK and international events such as Pride, Torture Garden, Erotica, Rubber Ball, Wasteland, Boundcon, Nuit Demonia and recently represented the UK at Japan's first international kinbaku event, Toubaku. He is also known for his teaching both in the UK and internationally and was co-organiser of the London Festival of the Art of Japanese Bondage and BOUND, Europe's premier monthly shibari event.

Over the last few years, he has been improving his skills in Japan with the help some of their best known and respected kinbakushi, Arisue Go, Osada Steve, Kinoko Hajime, Kazami Ranki and, grand master of newaza, Yukimura Haruki. Whilst drawing from classical methods, his style is distinctive and epitomizes the art of communicating with rope, often departing from the typical serenity of shibari shows and flying in the face of tradition to produce some striking and unusual performances.

In addition, he has worked on various videos, e.g. Primal Scream's 2013, artistic collaborations and photo shoots both on and off camera. He has been involved in projects providing inspiration for Tom Ford's 2013 collection and, Raqib Shaw, an acclaimed artist who has exhibited at the Tate, Metropolitan and White Cube galleries.

He contributed to Rope, Bondage & Power, edited by Lee Harrington and is currently involved with a number of documentaries on kinbaku. He is also author of the first English language tutorial DVDs: 'Japanese Rope Bondage: Tying people, not parcels'.


Nina Russ is a London based, shibari performer, rope artist and educator. She became student of Esinem in 2011 and their collaboration gave birth to BOUND shibari night (2012) and ShibariClasses (2015). She had also the fortune to participate at workshops with different Japanese shibari masters, like: Kazami Ranki, Yukimura Haruki, Kinoko Hajime.

She has performed internationally, most notably at the London Festival of the Art of Japanese Rope Bondage and RopeFest in St.Petersburg. In addition, she participates in numerous artistic, fashion collaborations and local performances. Her passion for rope has lead her on a route of discovery of concepts, philosophy, aesthetics and benefits behind this Japanese discipline.

She sees shibari as an art form which creates deep connection between the participants and also aids personal development. Due to its martial arts roots, it brings self-discipline, efficiency, effectiveness and, thus, growth in confidence and awareness. She believes these skills allow a greater focus on the most important aspects: you, your partner and your shared experience.
