About this Experience

What you'll do:

Book the whole studio out for your birthday crew and get the full Shibari 101 experience without sharing the space with any other group — more privacy, more attention, more customization. It's playful, a bit risqué, and exactly the kind of "you did WHAT for your birthday" story your friends will never believe.

Why we love it for your party:

  • Exclusive booking - the entire studio and instructors' attention are dedicated to your event

  • Set the tone - make this experience truly your own with full control of the music and lighting through our Sonos speakers and Hue lights

  • The ultimate "we actually did something different" birthday celebration

  • Fully clothed, consent-forward, and totally safe for a group of curious first-timers

  • Switching and participation are encouraged so every guest gets a turn

  • All-inclusive — mats, loaner rope, and the know-how are all provided. You only need to bring your curiosity and enthusiasm!

  • A judgment-free, welcoming space - proudly queer-owned and operated

  • A guaranteed highlight of the whole birthday weekend, not just another item on the itinerary

  • Picture-perfect

    • The instructors will snap some photos for you using our Instax cameras and your phones as you and your group practice

    • These images in our light-drenched Studio capture those moments your friends won't believe and that you won't want to forget

    • The Instax photos are yours to keep. (Your privacy is important to us, so we never use our phones!)

  • VIP Goodies! The birthday bestie gets a starter kit of rope to take home as a special keepsake

  • Want to make your visit extra special? Schedule a 15-minute tie for the guest of honor — it can be a private experience or the group can watch them be the star of their birthday show!

About this experience partner:

Devil Mask Studio is Los Angeles's most well-regarded Shibari studio, located in the Historic Core of Downtown LA. Collectively, owners Andrew, Nora, and Melissa bring more than 45 years of combined experience learning and teaching the art of rope bondage. Queer-owned and operated, Devil Mask Studio is built around consent-forward, judgment-free education, welcoming curious newcomers and experienced practitioners alike.

Additional information:

  • Age Limit: Everyone attending must be over 18. We discuss adult topics, and the class is not appropriate for minors.

  • All levels: This experience requires no previous knowledge of rope or bondage.

  • Shibari is an inherently risky activity. We recommend practicing rope bondage sober. If anyone in your group is visibly inebriated or behaving erratically, we reserve the right to deny them entry, ask them to exit the learning space, or cancel the booking outright without a refund.

  • Pricing: This group class starts at $1000 for 2 hours. A longer lesson can be booked for an additional fee.

  • Take it home: Rope is available for purchase if every guest would like their own keepsake and a way to practice what they've learned at home.

  • Group Size: The experience is priced for a group of 8-15 people. Larger groups can be accommodated for an additional fee.

  • Booking requires a minimum of 7 days' advance notice. Cancellations must be made at least 7 days in advance for a refund.

  • The Studio is located in Downtown Los Angeles, steps from the Pershing Square Metro station, making it convenient for groups to access from most parts of the Los Angeles area.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do we find Devil Mask Studio?

Detailed instructions are on our website’s Visiting Us page: https://devilmaskstud.io/visiting-us

What if we'd like to take some rope home?

We have brand-new rope in a variety of materials for purchase on site. Or we can create a package price so each of your attendees receives rope as part of your experience. Check out the various offerings in our shop and let us know in your booking inquiry. https://devilmaskstud.io/shop

Is this booking suitable if none of us have tried shibari before?

Absolutely! The class is designed for beginners, so no prior rope experience, partner, or equipment is required. Instructors will guide your group through the fundamentals step by step, including consent, communication, knots, and foundational harness techniques.

What should we wear to the class?

Wear comfortable clothing that allows you to move freely and participate in hands-on rope exercises. (Read more at https://devilmaskstud.io/what-to-wear-for-shibari/) All attendees should also arrive sober, as rope work involves physical risks.

How far in advance do we need to book?

Group classes require at least 7 days' notice to book. If you need to cancel, at least 14 days' notice is required to receive a refund.
