Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.Sample Book Insights: #1 Kinbaku, also known as shibari, has become a symbol of Japanese SM. It has been difficult for Chinese-speaking regions to develop their own kinbaku community, as there are few teaching materials written in Chinese.#2 I hope this book will help guide readers to practice the basics of kinbaku, and newcomers to get started. I will endeavor to introduce the new knowledge and skills I have learned, as well as my own understanding of kinbaku.#3 The direction of study and method of techniques will be different for different purposes. Playful bondage between partners does not require knowledge of complicated techniques, but a sense of closeness between each other. In SM domination sessions, the nawashi must learn how to create a sense of restraint without causing too much discomfort for the bottom or bound partner.#4 Teaching kinbaku is like teaching cooking. You must find the kinbaku dishes that work for both of you. The basic skills may look simple, but when used in combination they can produce all sorts of variations.
