Who is it for?

The courses are designed for tying couples who want to experience or progress in Semenawa according to the workshop description above. The workshops follow the curriculum of Kurogami and Shiawase.
Good manners, passion, and a willingness to learn are required for this workshop.
These courses are also recommended for couples who have attended Kinbaku LuXuria Class I (either Riccardo Wildties, Peter Soptik or Andrea Kurogami) in the past, as they have updated their teaching with new exercises and interesting technical details aimed at enhancing your bondage experience!

Please note that loose strings, large bows, snaps, laces and long and bulky dresses can interfere with the tying process and lead to frustration.

Style

The workshops are inspired by the style of Kinbaku LuXuria by Riccardo Sergnese (Wildties), ichi-ban deshii of Naka Akira. The style directly descends from Naka-Ryu (Akira Naka’s style) and is a carefully reengineered, preserving the original and traditional spirit of Naka-san’s style while introducing technical innovations suitable for European culture and physique, with a particular emphasis on safety.

In close contact with Riccardo Wildties and proudly being a student of him and RedSabbath, Kurogami has developed his personal style that reflects his personality and unique connection with his partner. Tailored on Shiawase, his style combines eroticism, strictness, care, and dedication.

Educators

Together since 2014, in September 2016, they began dedicating themselves to the study of kinbaku. In November of the same year, they attended their first course led by Riccardo. This encounter marked the beginning of an ongoing journey, filled with in-depth exploration, inspiration, and continuous research.
In February 2018, Andrea became a certified educator in Kinbaku LuXuria, fully embracing the educational values of Wildties. Today is among the few people in Europe recognised by Riccardo to teach the style.
Throughout the years, Kurogami and Shiawase actively participated in various kinbaku events in Italy and several European cities. They engaged as participants in jams, attended advanced courses led by Riccardo as students, and served as performers and educators in dedicated events. In 2019, Kurogami and Shiawase had the honor of tying at the 25th Nawa Naka Kai in Tokyo, alongside Riccardo and Naka-san.
In July 2024, Kurogami and Shiawase opened Peony Studio in Turin (IT), where they organize workshops, jams, and various other events around Kinbaku. Learn more about them on their own website: Peonystudio
