" The obvious is ordinary."
Jan aka JPBondage
Jan gets in contact with the German BDSM scene the first time in 2010. In the same year he finds his way to rope
as a rigger.
Or had the rope found him? He can't quite describe it any more. What he does know, however, is the fact that
even back then, without any previous experience, he was able to create connections on every conceivable level,
even through the rope to people.
Since then, his focus has been on improving his ability to lead the rope. Very soon the international bondage
scene will know him as JPBondage. So he embarks on his own rope journey. The biggest learning is the ability to
separate himself. The second most important learning is that not all people who indulge in Shibari understand
the depth & implications of rope, as Jan does.
Familiar with Asian martial arts himself, Jan finds his approach to Shibari, whose origins lie in the Japanese
martial art of rope Hojōjutsu. Contributing to Jan's technical understanding are advanced training sessions with
a handful of international, including Japanese, Shibari practitioners. Without question, however, Jan develops
his signature rope skills very early on from a dedication to aesthetics, philosophy & through his empathy.
In 2021, Jan graduates from Betty Martin's "Like A Pro" advanced training of the "Wheel of Consent" principle,
which deals with the nature of one's own limits & limits of other people.
It is said that feeling the rope on your own body is a special experience.
Rope meter by rope meter, a unique world opens up, an exclusive scenario.
The way there & back is as varied as the wishes, fantasies & needs of each individual person.
