"All things are subject to interpretation whichever interpretation prevails at a given time is a function of power and not truth" Nietzsche

"I strongly believe that the idea of 'Shu Ha Ri' applies to everything that exists in the world... 'Shu' is to study, to focus through repeating the teachings and methods of your predecessors. 'Ha' is to express new ideas through the incorporation of your own thoughts and skills... Finally, 'Ri' is the world that is created by furthering and improving the ideas of Ha. This progression is at the heart of Shu Ha Ri" -

I have been involved in BDSM internationally albeit privately, mainly as a dominating figure in my relationships for over 35 years.
Fascinated by the intrinsic beauty in the art of Japanese Rope Bondage since seeing a Japanese bondage show in Paris in the 70's and a month long trip to Japan in the 80's.
THIS is one of the best videos on japanese bondage, it will help to explain what and why I do what I do ...

I my pursuit to become a decent rigger, I have travelled to Japan again recently and received tutelage from renowned Masters such as Osada Steve, Hajime Kinoko, Satomi, Kazami Ranki, as other international riggers such as Esinem, Midori, Amalion and Australian riggers such as Hebari and Mark Dv8.
Seduced by the sensual skill and artistic expression of Newaza Shibari (FloorWork) I am in the process of developing my own style of tying.
I enjoy FloorWork and ichinawa in particular as it allows me to focus all my attention on my partner, it is fluid and sensory, relying on triggers and sensitivities of my partner, with the aim to lull them into a forbidden world of sensory pleasure. ( my video might give a better idea of what I mean )
I try my best to keep faith to traditional japanese bondage where mind, edge and predicament play are key factors of the tying process , I have to thank Hajime Kinoko, Osada Steve, Satomi and Esinem in particular to have opened this door to my tying, and will pursuit more training in the near future in Japan and elsewhere.
I have a particular love for women, tattoos, photography, good food & wine and obviously rope, when you add a little "edge play", I call it " Heaven " ....

I am not a professional photographer, I take pictures of the beautiful situations rope gets me into, its my way to share these great moments with my partners and friends.
I shoot to capture the beauty and intensity of what I see when I tie, I do not photoshop or manipulate my images.
I just play with my partner, the environment and the lighting, I hope you enjoy my gallery ....
/********
One of my projects is a photographic show of " Ink & Rope " as a theme, I therefore welcome any rope loving tattooed girl/woman or model to make contact with me.
The idea is to have a group show with photographs of tattooed people in rope, with shots taken by various photographers, with different models tied by me, The photos will not just be pretty pictures, they will need to be capturing a ' moment " of rope, with a very personal outlook on the model.
If you are interested or want to participate in any way just please just get in contact with me initially through here.

In October 2013 we hosted the first Dallas Rope Festival, was an amazing event for any lover of Japanese Rope Bondage.
The line up of presenters was amazing, we had a great group of artists come from Japan to host workshops and incredible performances.
/********
I am on CM mainly to exchange information on Japanese Bondage in particular, have an interest in seeing the japanese bondage scene evolve in Italy and enjoy having a network of rope friends around the world that I hope to get to meet at some point in my travels.
Not looking for a lifetime partner, I am not boyfriend material and I have a delicious muse that I love tying ... however, in the many Dallas rope workshops we hold , there is always need for rope loving models and partners, anyone interested in japanese bondage but intimidated can feel free to contact me, I will be happy to show them the way ....
May many knots come your way ......
Take care, play safe and stay warm ......

I am not on here to grow a long list of insignificant " friends " I am happy to befriend people that share my interest in rope, so please feel free to write me a line when want me to add you amongst my friends, just to let me know what we have in common, otherwise unless you are drop dead gorgeous it is unlikely I will add you. I don't want to sound presumptuous but not interested in finding a whole series of " I love my dick " pictures invading my pages.
