More about La Cabäne
La Cabäne is a small shibari space in the 19th arrondissement of Paris owned by Bänana.
This is a space that prioritizes queer and marginalized peoples.
Bänana is a precise and demanding instructor regarding bondage technique. She considers that in order to tie well, we must understand each of our technical choices rather than learning the instructions by heart. She gives to her students a solid grounding so they can feel free while tying and put these technical abilities at the service of the relationship with their partners.
Being in ropes is also something to be apprehended. Every tied-up person has to find the way that pleases them. It's also a long journey full of questions and emotions, and it seems important to Bänana that all this is taken into account during her courses.
The courses are often highly interactive, with the idea that everyone should have a place to ask questions and express their experiences and feedback in order to grow together in this practice.
The team
Erato Bänana
(she/her)Founder & Teacher
Bänana has been practicing bondage since she was young and discovered shibari about ten years ago. A switch in her personal practice, she now teaches mainly as a rigger, with equal care for both riggers and rope bottoms. Drawn to semenawa, emotional exploration, and creativity, she advocates for an inclusive approach to rope that adapts to different bodies and experiences. She regularly teaches internationally while remaining deeply attached to her cozy Paris space, La Cabäne.
