A Women's
Shibari
Journey
SEPTEMBER
12-14
2025
Join us for "Sacred Threads," a transformative weekend retreat dedicated to the art of Shibari.
Designed exclusively for women, this retreat delves into the grounding and calming practices of rope work.
Explore Shibari as a medium for self-discovery, healing, and deep connection.
What to Expect:
-
Grounding Practices: Engage in sessions that utilize the gentle embrace of ropes to foster mindfulness and presence.
-
Emotional Exploration: Delve into the emotional facets of Shibari, understanding its potential for personal transformation and healing.
-
Somatic Healing: Learn techniques that integrate body awareness with rope work, promoting holistic well-being.
-
Conscious Communication: Participate in workshops emphasizing the importance of intention, boundaries, and trust within Shibari practice.
Who is it for?
This retreat is designed exclusively for women who wish to explore the art of Shibari in a space of deep trust, connection, and embodiment. You are welcome to join on your own or with a friend, lover, or partner—someone you feel comfortable sharing moments of intimacy with.
Throughout the weekend, we will practice in pairs, sometimes staying with the same partner and sometimes exploring with others. You’ll have the opportunity to connect with a group of women who are drawn to the practice of rope as a tool for grounding, self-exploration, and embodied presence.
To fully immerse yourself in this journey, it’s important that you feel at ease with physical closeness and have a basic sense of your own boundaries. We will actively cultivate a safe and supportive environment, guiding you through practices that help you tune into your desires, communicate your needs, and honor both giving and receiving.
Whether you are completely new to Shibari, have tied a little before, or already know some basic techniques but seek a more sensual, embodied, and intentional approach, this retreat invites you to explore the art of tying and being tied as a path to presence, trust, and deep connection.
Your Guide
Karen Schov
Tantric Pleasure Goddess
I am passionate about Pleasure! Walking barefoot in the grass, living life at my very own pace. Creating space for life to flow through me and out to the world around me. The switch from “dedicated corporate slave” to a life as a passionate ever exploring Tantrica, working as a Pleasure Coach and a Tantra Therapist, has given me back the spark. Given space for meaning to flow back into my life and my work. Dedicating my life to embody authenticity and unlocking still higher levels of truth, joy and love, embracing all this that comes with being alive.
I am devoted to creating calm, warm spaces where people can feel safe to show up in their full vulnerability and maybe dear to lean into curiosity. Finding that courage inside of you to move out of comfort and expanding the way you experience life. In addition to private sessions, I host workshops, goddess circles and retreats, building community and creating a sense of togetherness.
I have been inspired by rope work for about 10 years and have felt deeply the connection it can bring, both to a partner and to the experience of life within my own being. I love the sensation of leaning into the rope wether it is held by me or hands and the rope of another as well as over and over again being mesmerised of the sensation of holding space for others to surrender into my arms and experience new sides of themselves.
THE LOCATION
A night of indulgence, a night of devotion
As the sun sets on our sacred space, we gather in softness. The air is scented with roses, the touch of silk, the taste of something sweet. We slow down, savor, and surrender to the pleasure of presence. A space where touch becomes poetry, where every sense is invited to awaken.
And when the moment is right, a stage opens—a wishing circle, a portal for expression, offering, and witnessing.
Are you ready to step into the night?
