In honour of Purple Day, we’re raising awareness for epilepsy within the rope community. Here’s how to approach shibari safely and thoughtfully when seizures are a factor.

Shibari is beautiful—but it’s also edge play. In this essential guide, we explore what it means to understand your risk profile before tying or being tied.

Our full response to The Echo, sharing why we teach Shibari: not for shock or taboo, but to build a community grounded in consent, connection, and safety.
