Kinbaku is the Japanese word for rope bondage: In the west it is often referred to as Shibari.

Nawashi Murakawa, the Artistic Director of the annual London festival of the Art of Japanese Rope Bondage provides the historical context for the practice which goes back 12000 years. He also explains how Kinbaku has developed as a dramatic art form which is performed in front of audiences in many countries. This series of ten chapters demonstrates how the art of rope bondage has developed in the UK, Russia, Canada and the USA as well as presenting a modern day live performance in Tokyo. The final section shows more traditional Japanese techniques. Chapters with Japanese contributors provide the text in Japanese as well as in English. The stunning and surprising photographs reveal the beauty and daring of the models, and their written accounts together with those of the photographers and rope experts give an insight into the lifestyle of those who practice this particular fetish.

Book Description
In 2006, I took my first trip to Tokyo as well as my first lesson in kinbaku, the Japanese art of erotic rope bondage. Over the next decade, I would visit many times, meeting with and learning from many of the most important masters of the art. In 2011, I became a student of one of the grandmasters of kinbaku, Yukimura Haruki. I was given the name Haru Yutaka and in 2013 I was promoted to the rank of instructor in his unique style of shibari, Yukimura Ryuu.Each time I would visit Tokyo, I felt my appreciation for the art of kinbaku growing deeper, more complex, and more nuanced. This volume is a collection of essays that are both reflections and memorializations of the many lessons I learned from the people I have met on my journey.I hope these writing can help share some of my understanding of what rope is and what it can be. This is book is not designed to be a how-to manual or a primer for techniques or skills. Rather it is my own reflection and meditation on what I found while studying in Japan.Taken as a whole, it offers a way of thinking about rope that is guided my feeling, emotion, communication, and eroticism.
