The Workshop
Level: Intermediate / Strong intermediate
Prerequisite:
rigger: You are confident with static suspensions, including safe takeoff and landing. You can tie and adjust a reliable 2 TK gote under load and are comfortable managing uplines on bamboo.
model: You are experienced in suspensions, can clearly communicate bodily sensations under load, and can distinguish between acceptable stress, circulation restriction, and nerve-related signals.
This is a full-day workshop focused on dynamic suspensions. Where static suspension is about structure and balance, dynamic suspension introduces movement, timing, and continuous decision-making. The body is no longer simply hanging in space, but actively responding to shifts in load, direction, and intention. This adds intensity, expression, and complexity, and also increases responsibility for both partners.
The aim of this workshop is to deepen your understanding of how movement changes everything. We will work on how forces evolve during transitions, how momentum affects the body, and how to manage rope and partner safely while things are in motion. Safety, communication, and awareness remain central throughout the day.
Dynamic suspension is not about tricks or spectacle. It is about responsiveness, trust, and presence. Movement is used as a tool to create connection, intensity, and expression, not as a performance goal.
As with all RopeMarks workshops, this class is adaptable to different paces and styles. Not every pair will do the same movements, and not every suspension will look the same. What matters is that each rigger and model leaves with a deeper understanding of dynamic load, clearer communication, and more confidence with working in motion.
By the end of this workshop, participants will have a solid foundation in dynamic suspension principles and the ability to explore movement safely and intentionally in their own practice.
Recommended precursor workshop is our Ryu #2, Kinbaku workshop, static suspensions.
This workshop completes the core RopeMarks Ryū suspension path

| Who’s RopeMarks?
RopeMarks, also known as Bob Roos, is a kinbaku professional from Amsterdam, the Netherlands He started studying and specializing himself professionally in Japanese rope bondage (shibari, kinbaku) in 1999. Over his career he studied in the land of the rising sun under the lineage of the late Akechi Denki (明智伝鬼) and Naka Akira (奈加あきら). RopeMarks’ work reflects the traditional techniques taught by these leading kinbakushi but is vastly complemented with his own distinct and unique style. He is famous for his energetic performances in Japanese rope bondage in which he combines traditional kinbaku with his own distinct and unique style. |
Who’s Ineya?
Ineya has been active in the kink scene for over 15 years as a switch, and her professional background in social work always made her curious to understand and learn from people and situations. Her rope journey began in 2016 with RopeMarks, and over the years she developed a deep connection to Shibari, exploring both the emotional and physical aspects of rope. Her approach as a bottom is rooted in emotional openness, power exchange, and a fascination with how rope can create a non-verbal dialogue between two people. In recent years, she has also explored the top side of rope, adding new layers to her understanding and teaching. Not drawn to one specific style made her open and having or willing experience different styles. In workshops, Ineya focuses on building communication, awareness, and mutual understanding. She offers insights from the bottom perspective that help both riggers and bottoms connect more consciously and safely—emphasizing curiosity, emotional depth, and the unique energy that rope can create. |
