Shibari Lounge — the place to not only lose yourself, but find yourself too.

We’re a welcoming neurodivergent-aware shibari and BDSM studio located in Leigh-on-Sea, Essex, just a short distance from London. Our cosy, inclusive venue provides a supportive, low-pressure environment perfect for both beginners and experienced enthusiasts. Whether you’re joining for shibari workshops, rope jams, or kink education, our intimate, limited-capacity venue is designed with consent, communication, and community at its heart. We aim to offer a safe space where you can explore rope, kink, and connection—at your own pace, in your own way.

Our Values

• Consent is Key.

  Every interaction at Shibari Lounge is built on mutual respect, care, and communication. We follow and actively promote the principles of P.R.I.C.K. (Personal Responsibility, Informed, Consensual Kink), R.A.C.K. (Risk Aware Consensual Kink), and S.S.C. (Safe, Sane, and Consensual). Whether you’re new to kink or deeply experienced, we ask that you take time to understand these frameworks to ensure everyone feels safe, seen and respected.

• Body Positivity.

  We welcome and celebrate all bodies—every size, shape, gender, skin tone, and ability. Our space is built on the belief that self-love, exploration, and empowerment belong to everyone.

• Diversity & Inclusion.

  Shibari Lounge is proudly LGBTQIA+ friendly, welcoming all sexualities, identities, and cultural backgrounds. Everyone deserves a space to learn, connect, and play—free from judgment.

• Knowledge is power.

  We know BDSM and rope can come with a lot of jargon! That’s why we link to helpful resources like The Kinktionary and will soon be releasing our own Shibari Glossary to help you feel comfortable and confident during workshops and jams.

• Respect our house.

  Before attending any events, please take a moment to read our Terms & Conditions and Code of Conduct. They help us keep the space safe, joyful, and consent-focused for everyone
