KAZAMI RANKI

Kazami Ranki hails from Osaka Japan and is a world renowned Nawashi who developed his own style of tying over the last 35 years. He started teaching in 2000 and has taken his unique style to venues all over the world both as a performer and educator. Kazami identifies as a Bakushi, binding for the sake of SadoMasochistic play rather than for the aesthetics of the rope. His style is well suited for all body types with a focus on variability and sustainability within suspension. Famously known as the Atrocious Nawashi, Kazami Ranki's Kinbaku show truly highlights the spirit of the woman in her tied element.
