TEACHER · PERFORMER

Berlin-based queer shibari teacher, performer and multidisciplinary artist working publicly as Ann Antidote. Daruma Berlin's official profile says Ann has taught and performed shibari from an unapologetic queer and diversity-centered perspective since 2010, develops rope-related work for film, theatre and photo projects, keeps classes trans-inclusive, body-positive and explicitly consent-based, and names Dasniya Sommer, Arisue Go, Hourai Kasumi, Miumi-U and Felix Ruckert among selected teachers. Daruma's 2024-2025 workshop pages add current Berlin teaching context around suspension follow-up, moving larger bodies and chest-binding sessions, while Ann's public link hub and Bluesky profile provide the current independent identity and contact surface.

Influences (mutual or directional): Dasniya Sommer, Arisue Go, Kasumi Hourai, Miumi-U, Felix Ruckert.
