Spread Legs Bamboo Tie

In this step-by-step shibari tutorial, Tamandua and his model Briki teach a spread-legged bamboo tie using the principles of semenawa or ‘tormenting rope’.

This tie and its intentionally exposed and vulnerable position with the legs forcefully spread are perfect to implement semenawa into your practice if you do not have a suspension point or prefer to play on the floor.

Although there is no suspension involved in this tie, it’s not suitable for beginners as it involves a certain level of technical and emotional experience to be performed and experienced safely.
