Shibari Study Launches New App, Announces Free Instructional Livestreams

NEW YORK — Shibari Study has announced its expansion into the U.S market with a new consumer mobile app aimed at helping individuals virtually learn and practice the art of Japanese rope bondage at home, solo or with a partner.

“The official launch follows a successful beta period where the company grew its subscriber base 500%, unveiled new content for all levels, hired new trainers and incorporated livestream capabilities to its offerings,” said a rep.

The Shibari Study app provides a library of educational content with which users can “take their rope-art to the next level — be it at home or on the go — but always at their own pace,” the rep added.

The seven-day trial allows users to explore hundreds of classes and receive answers to their questions from Shibari Study’s instructors.

All courses can be downloaded, saved and sorted directly from the Shibari Study app to be watched offline.

Teaching the Ropes

Anton Martin, co-founder of Shibari Study, said, “We’re thrilled to expand to the U.S. and officially launch our new app on a global scale, showcasing the benefits of Shibari and rope to the rest of the world

“As the global pandemic continues to inhibit in-person training, this app allows us to further our reach and bring the world of Shibari to more people, no matter where they practice,” he added.

Throughout March, Shibari Study will host free livestream courses for non-subscribers around general safety, consent and basic techniques, available on the website and Shibari Study app. After the initial launch, livestream courses will be hosted on a regular basis for members.

Marika Leila Roux, co-founder of Shibari Study, explained that “Shibari is for everybody and our goal is to provide accessible education about the benefits of rope bondage to as many people as possible.”

“While Shibari is great for those looking for an intimate and kink-focused experience, it’s also for individuals looking to create beautiful art or practice a new craft,” said Roux. “We’re hopeful this new platform will give people who have been curious about learning bondage a reason to try it in the comfort of their homes.”

Free livestreams include “ Drills & Skills” today 11 a.m. (PST); “Rope Safety” tomorrow at 11 a.m. (PST); “Simple Playful Ties” on March 6 at 12 p.m. (PST); “Bodycare for Rope” on March 9 at 11 a.m. (PST); and “Shaping Connections” on March 13th at 10 a.m (PST).

New visitors to Shibari Study’s platform can sign up for the membership service between now and March 31 for $12.50 for their first month, a 50% discount, “offering time to learn the basics of Shibari, practice their first ties and discover themselves on their rope journey,” said the rep.
