Misty and Frank in Berlin and Effie in London are joined by special guest Velvetine to talk all about Shibari.

What's the difference between Shibari and bondage?

Is Shibari always seggsual?

How old is Shibari?

Velvetine is a Berlin-based Shibari model whose happy place is finding freedom in restraints. Coming to Shibari from BDSM, getting tied is an erotic and kinky practice for Velvetine and not just an artistic practice.

When she’s not found swinging from the ceiling in ropes, Velvetine is a kink and erotica writer and movement practitioner. You can find her on Instagram at Velvetine_dreams and for those of you pervs with F*tl*fe: _Velvetine_
