Sara Shibari

I’m a 34 year old rigger from Helsinki, Finland. Ropes captured my heart about five years ago, and they’ve been an inseperable part of my life ever since. I’m fascinated by the versatility of rope. It can be a way to connect through touch, build tension and different moods, provoke pain, or explore emotions, such as humiliation.

In addition to being a rigger, I identify as queer, dominant, and pervert. I enjoy exploring power and dynamics, and the many ways these themes can be expressed both with rope or without. In everything I do, whether its is tying or other kinky activities, safety and respect for boundaries are my top priorities.

I offer individual rope sessions in the Vallila/Pasila area, in Helsinki. I’m also available for shibari performances in various events.

HI, I am sara
