Midori literally ‘wrote the book’ on rope bondage, with the first
English instruction manual on Shibari: ‘Seductive Art of Japanese
Rope Bondage’. With her first hand perspectives on both American
and Japanese rope culture, fox and Mya were able to discuss with
her a depth of understanding of Japanese Rope culture that may be
at odds with some of the myths out there. Listen to the discussion
to hear about: • Midori’s slow burn entry into rope, and where she
learned both the skills of making rope (3rd grade!) and tying (a
lot later…) • How not to be a culture vampire in Japanese rope
bondage • The sex ways of ordinary people and ensuring we don’t
erase these • The extent to which rope bondage is actually
practised in Japan • A new perspective on the Tengu tie • The
themes in her erotic short story in ‘Silk Threads’ • The connection
- or not - between Japanese rope and Japanese rope martial arts
Trailblazing educator, sexologist, artist, and irritant to
banality, Midori founded Rope Dojo and ForteFemme: Women's
Dominance Intensive. She penned the first English instruction book
on Shibari, "Seductive Art of Japanese Bondage" in 2001, paving the
way to the popularity of rope. Dan Savage calls her the "Super Nova
of Kink," while others affectionately call her Auntie Midori for
her cool, tell-it-like-it-is, funny, reality-based teaching.
Midori is the Co-Director of Curriculum for Kink Informed
