My Shibari Journey with Rina Trevi
My Shibari Journey
The anticipation
before my journey with
felt exhilarating!
I was literally bouncing
with excitement every time I thought about it
from the moment I sent my deposit in October
until the day we met in November.
I did not come
with any specific requests
nor expectations for the experience.
I wanted to hand myself over
to an expert and take a trip to subspace.
I was craving power exchange and intensity.
I wanted a special treat for my birthday.
I relayed my interest in meditative bondage.
I shared that I have developed a taste
for the rush of endorphins
and the high that comes
with pain.

Soon after we started
I was blindfolded and tied-up tight.
A peculiar and unusual feeling came up;
I remembered that Rina wrote about
although, honestly, I did not actually
understand what that meant,
not for me at least.
Upon examination,
I found I did not feel scared.
This feeling I had avoided for years,
for fear of pain, was here to be explored.
I decided to surrender - to dive into the pain.
And, oh my... What a high!
The waves of sensation,
the harmony of the sound bath around me
-sounds I usually hear while very comfortable-
now accompanying me to peaks of intensity
and the bliss of just being.
My whole being was floating on endorphins.
I felt a sense of triumph and
accomplishment after enduring the pain.
I felt so strong and powerful-
I could handle so much!
A thought came to mind:
Pain is weakness leaving the body.

I was looking for an adventure.
I value my time & safety enough to hire a pro.
When I saw Rina on a February '21 podcast with
I was captivated by the passionate way
she spoke about shibari.
I had admired Rina for years prior.
As a newbie pro-Domme, I looked up to Her
as a fabulous and creative established Domina.
Her erudite writings on BDSM and kink impressed me as I grew to appreciate them.
Trust & respect are necessary for me to bottom;
someone has to have both intelligence
and experience for me to feel safe.
I am so happy I decided
to treat myself to a world-class experience!
Rina is as brilliant in conversation as she is in
writing and as warm as she is witty. I felt safe.
Masterclass level power-exchange & pain play,
with a dip into (a favorite feeling!) something deeper that I don't yet understand ;
vulnerability and the power of surrender.
I walked away feeling powerful, courageous, and happy 🙂
