Ep103: Correctional Sadism and Pressure Points in Rope - An interview with WoodenTiger

“There are a lot of different variations in terms of human anatomy.
Certain nerve pathways are quite set…and a lot of the anatomical
studies show the variation in the nerve pathways is very small. But
other nerves have large variations, therefore you can’t really tell
where, because in 80% of the population the nerve pathway will be
in this area +/- 1cm, but then in the other 20% you can have 7
different variations in the same nerve pathways.” WoodenTiger
Wooden Tiger is a polyamorous, pansexual relationship anarchist who
dabbles in ‘correctional sadism’ using rope bondage, along with a
host of other kinks including pressure points, rough body play,
knife play and firecupping. He draws on knowledge from experiences
teaching physiology and anatomy at collage level, many years of
martial arts and his training and practice as a registered
acupuncturist. In addition, Tiger is one of the facilitators of
Friction Live. Fox and Mya have enjoyed his classes on at
@FrictionLive, and wanted to explore the brand of sadism he pairs
with rope: In the episode, discover: - The similarities between
Hojojutsu as practiced as a modern day martial art and within
Shibari - What is ‘Correctional Sadism’ and what techniques does it
include - Why he doesn’t let the bottom in this kind of scene go
into subspace - How listeners can improve their understanding body
mechanics to make their rope better - How he negotiates and then
decides on what kinks to pair with rope - The kind of feedback he
likes in a scene - How to get started with pressure point play
safely - And finally - some of Tiger’s favourite pressure points to
use with rope so you can get started!
