Our Studio

Nestled in Decatur, GA, Shibari ARTlanta’s 700 square foot studio offers a serene and welcoming environment. While designed specifically for shibari and kinbaku practice, the studio is perfect for yoga, sound baths, photoshoots, and other events.

Our studio’s aesthetic combines traditional Japanese elements with modern comfort. Warm wood paneling and subtle lighting create an atmosphere of calm and focus, while padded flooring ensures comfort during floor work and practice sessions. Multiple suspension points at varying heights allow for diverse rigging possibilities, suitable for practitioners of all skill levels.

The space includes a dedicated instruction area with excellent visibility for demonstrations, comfortable seating for theory discussions, and ample practice space to ensure each student can work safely and comfortably. We maintain a carefully controlled temperature and provide amenities including water, changing areas, and storage for personal belongings.

Safety is paramount in our design: all suspension points are professionally installed and regularly load-tested, emergency equipment is readily accessible, and the space is arranged to allow clear movement paths and optimal instructor supervision during classes.
