Witch Salt & Idan – Announcing presenters
Witch Salt
Witch Salt first encounterd Shibari in 2014 as a rope switch when she and her life partner (Nawa Erabu) visited a Jerusalem-based rope peer gathering where mostly Osada ryu and western rope bondage was taught.
Her passion for kinbaku led her to combine her academic studies with Japan studies, while developing her rope interests at the same time.
After spending a year in Japan and meeting Naka Akira she found her passion in his style, spirit, technique and aestetic.
When she moved back home in 2018, she shifted her focus to rigging and joined the founding team of Morikai studio in Tel Aviv and is one of the managers and educators there, while being taught by Nawa Erabu.
The opportunity to meet and study with Riccardo Wildties was extremely influential in connecting her even farther with Naka Akira’s Semenawa, and to share her passion for the style in her local community.
Witch Salt is passionate about implementing the style’s aestetics with her love for feminization.
