Odys is kinbaku artist and educator who discovered the beauty of rope bondage ten years ago, and has been deeply dedicated to it ever since. Initially inspired by the traditional Japanese style bondage, he has attended workshops with many world class presenters to find his path. He is the creator of KinbakuOdyssey studio and a direct student of Akira Naka sensei.

To Odys, kinbaku is a connective journey expressed through emotional transitions, evoked by progressive torment and power exchange. Each rope represents the catch and release of control. With each rope, he takes his partners on a journey of self-discovery, exposing what they secretly crave. His unique expression of sensually erotic semenawa evokes sensations of pleasure and pain, ultimately pushing his partners to reveal their inner feelings and emotions to him.

Violet found rope early in her journey back in 2015. Unlike other kinks, it touched her in unexpected and transformative ways. She considers it these days to be an intentional and intimate dialogue between two people. She is passionate about self-reflection and an open-minded approach to exploration and a safe approach to challenging your edge.

As a bottom, she has attended as well as taught workshops, intensives and private classes. She has learned from a wide range from styles throughout the world, including Naka Akira, Iroha Shizuki, Kanna and Kagura, KinbakuLuXuria, Tenma Haru and Reika, Gorgone, Subay/Naoko, Mynx, Soptik and Sansei and Atelier Simonet. She has taught several introductory rope classes and enjoys incorporating dominance in her play.

Paige is a rope bottom who discovered a love for bondage early on in her kink journey. After meeting Odys at the beginning of 2022, she began exploring rope suspension, finding new ways to challenge herself and connect with her partner. She became enchanted by the emotional depth and physical torment of kinbaku, valuing the importance of tying with intention while mitigating safety risks.

She has assisted Odys with many lessons and workshops, has attended several workshops with KinbakuLuxuria and studied with Naka Akira in Tokyo to deepen her understanding of Naka style rope bondage. In addition, she had a privilege to perform with Odys during Naka sensei’s semenawa study group in Tokyo.
