i so often see suspension work done in a shocking and overtly sexual manner these days, it was a refreshing change to watch you do it so elegantly and with such class, and still be sexy. thank you!

[bitsybittersweet]

@idlecruelty Thank you! Most of the suspension work that my partners and I do is more overtly sexual, perhaps more shocking (which we enjoy as well!), but I was certainly going for something more "ballet-like" in this piece, and I'm glad that it spoke to you. :-)

nice and wonderfull..i like it and i'll try to do

have you another video???

[bitsybittersweet]

@kareninagautama Thank you! This is my only video doing suspension work, currently. I cannot stress enough that you must study under a knowledgeable rigger before attempting to try this, it is very dangerous, and people get seriously hurt doing it all the time. I have the benefit of living with my rigger, T0ne, who taught me how to do it and supervised my practices till I got skilled enough to perform it on my own.

@aislouise I imagine wearing a corset helps a lot.

This is so fantastic! Great to see you blossoming. :-) It's been too long since BMSL. <3 from Two Knotty Boys

as a self suspension rigger (albeit in the early stages of training) can i ask how that waist wrap feels, it seems to ride high enough at certain points to be putting pressure on your floating ribs....

[kareninagautama]

yes ... I am very understanding and aware of the dangers, and although I did, I would not own, I really want to learn the techniques of self suspension, shibari, bondage and the like, but in my country, I could not find one who is adept at going it
