Vik is a rigger from Barcelona. His first contact with shibari was 8 years ago, when he saw some pictures of a friend who was involved with this art. But it wasn’t until the beggining of 2019 that he felt an interest in learning and practicing it. He started tying and being tied, training with several riggers and exploring various styles. In ropes, he found a tool to explore and discover. Little by little as a rigger, he has found his own path, which he still explores today. His curiosity and interest for Semenawa led him to study with international instructors. In kinbaku, he found both simplicity and intricacy, a style that enhances the beauty of the body and emotions, simple in appearance but with a great purpose, intention and complexity. Along with his partner Gala, they have had the opportunity of doing performances or, as they prefere to call them, live sessions in public, both nationally and internationally, at La Gabia Studi, Makabre’s fest and Erostreet Festival in Spain, at Yūgen Studio in Milan, Rope Spirit in Prague, and more.

What is pleasure education?
What they didn't teach us at school.
Pleasure education, also known as sex-positive education, is a holistic approach to sexual education that emphasises the importance of understanding, experiencing, and expressing sexual pleasure in a healthy, informed, and consensual manner. It goes beyond the traditional focus on reproduction, contraception, and disease prevention to include discussions about intimacy, consent, body positivity, sexual rights, and the emotional and psychological aspects of sexual experiences. Pleasure education aims to empower individuals to make informed decisions about their sexual health and to enjoy fulfilling and respectful sexual relationships.
What makes it hot?
The importance of pleasure education lies in its ability to foster a more comprehensive and positive understanding of sexuality. By addressing the often-neglected aspects of pleasure and consent, it promotes healthier attitudes towards sex and relationships. This education helps individuals develop a better sense of self-awareness and body positivity, reduces feelings of shame and guilt associated with sexual desires, and encourages open communication between partners. Additionally, it contributes to reducing the incidence of sexual violence and coercion by emphasizing the importance of mutual consent and respect. Overall, pleasure education supports the development of healthier, more respectful, and satisfying sexual experiences.
Resources for pleasure education can be found in various places, including online platforms like Sensuali, books, workshops, and organisations dedicated to sexual health and education.
Pleasure education can be tailored to suit different age groups, ensuring that the content is age-appropriate and developmentally suitable. While young children might focus on body awareness and respect, older teens and adults can explore more in-depth topics like intimacy, consent, and sexual techniques.
Pleasure education aims to be inclusive and respectful of diverse cultural and religious backgrounds. It encourages open dialogue and understanding, allowing individuals to explore their sexuality within the context of their personal beliefs and values.

Rely on myths: Steer clear of perpetuating common sexual myths or misconceptions; focus on providing clear, accurate, and evidence-based information.
Ignore emotional aspects: Don't overlook the emotional and psychological components of sexual pleasure, such as intimacy, connection, and mental well-being.
Exclude non-heteronormative perspectives: Ensure that pleasure education is inclusive of LGBTQ+ experiences and perspectives, rather than centring solely on heteronormative narratives.
