Why? In the last two years we have been travelling a lot around Europe doing classes and workshops. Some of our students have loved our style and or pedagogy so much that they are always eager to have more. Unluckily travelling abroad for private class is very expensive and not always practical. Also often during workshops the level of participants is very  varied, with a lot of beginners and therefore we cannot offer very advanced topics. This penalizes our most advanced students. For this reason we had more and more requests, during the last period, for a Masterclass and we decided...

I somehow consider the London Festival 2012 the begining of this year for LuXuria. It was our last "circus" show and the begining of a journey that brought us to what we are now. Lots of things have changed since then, both in our bondage as in our personal lives. We had many highs and a few lows. We met some incredible people in our numerous travels around Europe. We made new great friends and lost some of the old ones. Life is like that, always changing and evolving. We have had an incredible year of success. We visited so many different countries (some more than once) doing shows and workshops,...

After the great success of our cooperation with Wykd Dave and Clover we decided to repeat the experience with another great bondage couple Jack Whipper and Zahara (http://www.jackandzahara.co.uk/). Not only two incredible bondage artists but two amazing friends. And this experience also did turn out to be a great success! A super intensive day of rope, feelings, shows and fun! People from all over Italy, from France, Czech Rep., Holland... WOW! Day started early, people started gathering at the venue around 9,30 and by 10 Jack was already holding his first class. "the moment of Intention" is a brilliant...

Teaching at Lisbon Fetish Weekend has been one of the best experiences we have ever done! We had a great success and met some of the best and most friendly people! We arrived in Lisbon on Friday night quite late and MasterM__ picked up us at the airport. He drove us to the venue were the festival was already started and we had a chance to meet the organizers MikeG, isabel and MistressPatrizia that also run the website http://www.consensual.org.pt, an educational project for the  Portuguese BDSM community. The venue was a huge facility, very high ceilings, and fantastic wooden floor. A beautiful...

This is our report from Moscow Knot 2013, the first edition of what has been probably one of the greatest rope event of this year, featuring on stage some incredible artists including Naka Akira for the first time performing out of Japan. We really don’t know where to start from to describe all the emotions of this incredible long weekend. The Moscow Knot was organized by Vlada, Falco and Torquemada. Three splendid and friendly guys that took very good care of all the guests during the three days of the Festival. We arrived quite late in the night before the beginning of the Festival and slept...

Our trip to Czech Rep. was born really casually. We had received an invitation on Facebook to the Shibari Circle event, a monthly peer rope event in Brno. Redsabbath contacted Kirei, one of the organizers, and asked if they would be interested in a workshop or some performance. Despite they never had international guests, Kirei was very enthusiast and decided to organize two days of Kinbaku Luxuria workshops and shows. Things moved very fast and in a few days the event was scheduled. We have been very surprised because despite being their first experience organizing this kind of event, and despite...

Happy Birthday LuXuria! Today we celebrate our first year of activity and boy... this has been an incredible journey! So many things have happened this year, so many people supported us, so many new friends were met. This has been such an incredible year we can hardly describe all the beautiful adventures we went through. We started as an almost unknown group of bondage lovers, a rigger and some models, and within a year, we managed to become one of the most active realities of the European bondage scene. And all this was done only through our passion and dedication to Japanese Bondage. We had no important...

As you may have have noticed lots of picture sets and videos have been removed from the website. Months of passionate work, of feelings, of beautiful bondage gone in smoke.  The decision was not taken by Kinbaku LuXuria. Two of the models portrayed in those images and videos asked us to remove them. Honestly this is something really we really disagree on, not only for the great damage this causes to us and for the big deal of work it will take to make new banners, video teasers, flyers etc. What really is upsetting is that those images and videos are anyway spread all over the web. Blogs,...

And here are the results of the Bondage Awards, and guess what? LuXuria had incredible outcomes! But before talking of our placement we would like to spend two words on what we think of the competition itself. Bondage is not competitive and this particular contest is more about popularity than about the quality of the bondage. Also the voting system is quite awkward, allowing people to vote for themselves  and self inscribing into different categories (i know some European riggers that inscribed themselves practically in every category... lol). As the contest is made mainly for the American...

It is never too late to talk about this great Halloween party I had the luck to attend last month. I was in Paris for some class and my friend Morgana, who modeled for my classes, invited me to join her for the Halloween party at Cris et Chuchotements, a very popular BDSM club in Paris. I had heard a lot of good things about C&C, especially about their Friday afternoon party called "Les Goûters du Divin Marquis", but I couldn't imagine that it would have been so good! The club is divided on many levels, with small rooms that give a very intimate atmosphere. Each room is furnished...
