Negotiation Form: Help ensure Permission, Consent, and Safety Welcome to our Shibari scene negotiation form. This is to help those new and experienced in the scene. It’s designed to facilitate open communication and ensure that all participants are comfortable and aware of the boundaries and expectations involved in a Shibari scene. Our goal is to create an environment where any pain experienced is consensual and within the agreed-upon parameters. The form serves as a foundation for open dialogue and understanding, fostering a positive and empowering experience for everyone involved.

Please remember that consent is ongoing and can be withdrawn at any time.
