5.00I started learning from Ben with my partner. Step by step Ben guided us to understand and practice the principles of the tradition of Shibari. There were a lot of intense moments! In the end we learnt a lot about each other, about ourselves and the practice influenced our relationship in a very positive way. Thank you Ben <3
Thank you!!❤️❤️

5.00Spending time with Ben and Kat learning about the world of shibari is truly an incredible experience. They open up a new perspective to you, through which you get a chance to discover yourself and things around you. I have only heard of rope bondage earlier without truly experiencing it, with a proper introduction that Ben and Kat gave me I was able to get closer to my own feelings. Shibari opened up some questions and important discussions that Ben and Kat with big enthusiasm were ready to ponder with us, somehow very therapeutic. A beautiful interactation, location also played a big role definitely. To sum it up, super sweet artists that make you dive deep into their craft, deep enough to have a connection with it and find bits of yourself there! Can totally recommend :))
10/10 !

5.00I became interested in tying up because my best friend is very enthusiastic about Shibari. Ben and Kat accompanied me in a very nice way on my first bondage experience. I felt very safe.
Highly recommend

5.00This is my favourite Shibari class experience in comparison to other beginners classes I've been to. I was able to learn a lot from Ben’s thorough guidance, exercises and feedback. He is a very empathic and knowledgable teacher, creating a fun and safe environment for learning and exploring, giving personal attention to each student. Communication was great before, during and after classes, which helped me to practice in my personal time as well.
Loved it!🫶🏽

5.00I had an interest in Shibari before I went to classes with Ben Mergelsberg but I didn’t really know how to do it, and I didn’t really know if I would like it, because it gave me some respect. The way the classes started and the atmosphere it created gave me a lot of confidence and I was able to relax quickly, which is something very important in practice. I realized that I love all aspects of Shibari, especially I found out how much it relaxes me and enjoys being tied but I also gained confidence in tying the other person (which I didn’t feel so sure about at first). In addition to knowing how to explain the technique and the different aspects of practice, Ben had the patience to go step by step and back off when he blocked me. I really enjoyed the course, and would recommend it to anyone curious!
Unique lesson for a shibari beginner

5.00I took a shibari lesson in Berlin with Ben and loved it! He and his tying partner, Kat, know what they are doing and how to make you comfortable with this practice. They are open to tailoring the lesson to your interests so that you have a unique and rewarding experience. Whether you're looking to strengthen a bond with someone else or connect with your own body, I highly recommend Shibari on the Beach!
