The Threshold

$300
$90 deposit
+
You've been curious for a while. It's time to make a move. Share your ideas, ask your questions, name your hesitations, tell me what brings you here. Images, fantasies, references, half-formed ideas are all helpful starting points. We'll find the shape of things together. Sometimes we discover that what we thought we wanted leads us somewhere unexpected.

The Current

$300–400
$90 deposit
+
You've crossed the threshold. Now we find out what lives on the other side. This is where the dynamic begins to take shape. There's enough trust to go further, enough curiosity to find out where further leads. Sessions can stay soft and exploratory, or begin to move toward something with more intensity, more charge. No two sessions look the same.

Communion

From $400
$120 deposit
+
A fantasy you've been sitting on. A shared experience that takes you somewhere neither of you could get to alone. A new depth of intimacy, the kind that needs a witness, or a guide, or someone willing to hold the reins while you both let go.

Having a third person in the room changes everything. It can feel exposing, thrilling, a little transgressive. That's often exactly the point.

One of you in rope, one of you watching, both of you present to something you don't usually let happen. Or something else entirely. Tell me what's been living in the back of your mind and we'll find out what it wants to become.

The Gathering

From $400
$100/hr after 3 hrs
+
A curated evening for a small group. Some of you will be tied. Some will watch, participate, or both — that gets decided together, carefully, before anyone is in rope.

The evening starts with individual conversations: your curiosity, your limits, how you want the group to engage with you. Then we come together, make agreements, and begin. I tie one person at a time. The group moves around them according to what's been established. I stay present to safety and to what's unfolding in the room.

We close with a collective debrief. What happened here stays here.

Up to 10 people. Contact to discuss your vision, your group, and your date.

The Telling

From $300
Pricing on inquiry
+
A performance for your event, your party, your stage.

Duration can range from 15 to 45 minutes depending on what you have in mind. I come with a partner, or we discuss the possibility of working with someone on site — that requires a brief connection beforehand, not a cold start. I don't put people in rope in front of a crowd unless something is already there between us.

Floorwork is possible. Suspension is more visually striking — I can bring my own rig, though transport and setup costs extra and I may need a hand with installation. If your venue has a safe suspension point, let me know.

If your event has a theme, we can work with it, loosely.

Reach out with your date, your venue, and your vision.

Words

From those who
have been here

Étant quelqu'un de très anxieux, et ayant toujours eu une attirance pour le shibari, Masha m'a permis d'explorer ce milieu à mon rythme, et de manière très bienveillante. J'ai fait 6 séances au total avec Masha, et elle a toujours pris le temps de poser les bases au début de chacune de nos rencontres, tout en s'efforçant de faire attention en tout temps à mes limites physiques et émotionnelles. Elle prend le temps de connaître la personne qui se trouve en face d'elle, sans aucun jugement. Sur les dernières années, j'ai vu l'évolution sur mon corps et mon esprit, et grâce à elle, j'ai appris à plus m'ouvrir et à refaire confiance aux autres et à moi-même.

Mathis

I first tied with Masha by chance when plans shifted unexpectedly, and it ended up being a wonderful experience. What stood out most was how easy she made it to feel comfortable, heard, and connected throughout the process. Later, I invited her to facilitate at a gathering I hosted, and she brought that same thoughtful energy to the whole group. She has a real gift for creating connection, making people feel included, and balancing skill with genuine care. Masha creates spaces that are welcoming, intentional, and memorable, and I would happily recommend her to anyone interested in rope.

Jules

Masha is highly skilled, deeply intuitive and exceptionally professional. She held the container with softness and tenderness that made me feel safe to submit, and with authority and rootedness that allowed me to fully surrender. She intuitively read my body and my cues which curated a transformative experience. The session was medicine.

Ayla

What I like best about working with Masha is that she comes to every session as her authentic self. She has been a guide on a journey that has been creative and fun, yet sometimes physically and emotionally challenging in a positive way. If you are curious about rope, looking for self-discovery, or wanting to learn in a safe environment I would recommend Masha.

Lexi

J'ai toujours apprécié nos séances ensemble. Tu sais créer une ambiance respectueuse, professionnelle et relaxe, ce qui rend l'expérience vraiment agréable et naturelle. On sent aussi ta passion dans ce que tu fais, et ça paraît autant dans la qualité des photos que dans l'expérience globale.

John P

My first shibari experience was held in her intimate Tension studio. Although my heart was racing with anxiety, Masha was fantastic at introducing the world of ropes in a setting that made me feel safe, secure and accepted without judgment. Opening up the deepest aspect of myself — buried in shame for most of my life — felt as effortless as a blooming cherry blossom. Thank you Masha for being the gentle sun helping me bloom.
