Astrid

Astrid is a rigger.

Era: 2010s

RIGGER · TEACHER · ORGANIZER

Cape Town rope educator and community organizer publicly active as Astrid / Desire Lines. Embodiment's official home and about pages identify Astrid as a co-founder, director and educator, say she fell in love with rope in 2016 and had been building community locally ever since, and preserve the public `@desirelinesbondage` route. Astrid's 2024 Shibari Study article independently confirms that she and Simone / Vroeteldier founded Embodiment Rope Space in 2021 out of earlier RopeyThings organizing, while ShibariNews gives the matching compact educator / practitioner profile.
