"Tormenting rope is made for souls that have that sadness within, that turmoil, that need for surrender regardless of who ties and who is tied. It's not about sadism and masochism, it's about a pilgrimage, it's about climbing a mountain together, it's about the journey not the destination. "
[Wildties]
Kinbaku LuXuria is a traditional style, which directly descends from Naka-ryu. Riccardo (aka Wildties) introduced a technical re-engineering in order to make the style fit with Western body types that didn’t undermine the original spirit of the style. Semenawa, the tormenting rope, is the word that better resume the mood of this style.
Riccardo is Naka-sa’s Ichi-ban deshii and according to the will of his sensei he is the one who is designated to convey the style. In addition to several workshops and shows that Riccardo held in Europe and North America with his partner Red Sabbath, he performed several times in very important Japanese events in Tokyo, such as Maniac Festival and Nawa Naka Kai.
Nowadays there are 4 people who have been certified by Riccardo to teach his style:
Eric Shore (Lyon, FR) and Eran NawaErabu (Tel Aviv, IL) who are certified to teach #0
Peter Soptik (Prague, CZ) and Andrea Kurogami (Milan/Turin, IT) who are certified to teach #0 and #1.
