Kinbaku (緊縛) is a Japanese style of BDSM Rope Bondage. Rope is used to bind (tie) a person in a way which enhances connection, encourages submission, and emphasizes beauty.
Shibari is the Japanese word for “tying”. As applied to bondage, Shibari can be considered to be the pattern or method of tying.
Japanese Kinbaku is more than just the rope or the patterns. It is a Conversation of Dominant and submissive Connection between the Top (person tying) and bottom (person being tied). Body, Mind, and Emotion. Displaying and enhancing the beauty of the person being tied. And always with a focus on the connective energy (“Ki” 気), deepening the relationship, the bond between Top and bottom.
Kinbaku is Connective, Sensual, and Sexual. It can also be Artistic, Soothing, Stimulating, and Tormenting/Punishing (Semenawa).
KinbakuNM offers:
- Instruction in Japanese Kinbaku, Shibari, and Semenawa
- Basic Rope Bondage for Couples/Beginners
- Space for Play for up to 15 people
- Rope Bondage Social & Play Events

KinbakuNM provides a safe, welcoming, and non-judgmental space for those who are interested in Japanese rope bondage. Our goal is to bring together people interested in Shibari, Kinbaku, and Semenawa, the Japanese arts of bondage – where all rope bondage lovers and practitioners can learn, practice, and enhance their skills.
