What this episode covers

We talk about learning the ropes with the Education Director for the fabulous website/YouTube channel - Shibari Study fuoco. She joins us for a wonderful conversation about the incredible art form of ropework & how it's not just for kink. We also talk Circus! Our show is presented by Clips4SaleMore about Shibari StudyShibari Study is an online learning platform that offers hundreds of harnesses, beginner classes, self ties, and suspension tutorials taught by the world’s most recognized and respected names in rope bondage education.More about our guest:fuoco began her rope journey as a bottom in Phoenix in 2012 and shortly thereafter moved to London, where much of her early rope learning happened. Upon moving back to the US, she began presenting at cons and intensives around the country sharing her love of rope. As an educator, she's decidedly non-dogmatic in her approach to teaching. Her classes aim to help bottoms to better understand their bodies in movement, and to offer riggers the knowledge to adapt their tying to the unique needs of their partners. She recently stepped into the role of Director of Education for Shibari Study and is excited to think about shibari education in a new medium.When she’s not doing rope, fuoco is a professional acrobat. Her dedicated study of the mechanics of the body make her especially interested in developing more comprehensive education informed by these practices. She's also a Leftist who believes that kink is inherently political. She strives to bring her politics, her values, and an accountability for those values into her teaching spaces.
