Christian Nawa Leiva

Christian Nawa Leiva is a Chilean rigger.

Era: 2000s

RIGGER · TEACHER · ORGANIZER

Chilean rigger, teacher and organizer publicly using the `@ropeshop.bdcl` / `Christian Nawa Leiva` identity around Bondage Chile. Doble Espacio's long-form workshop report names `Christian Leiva` as creator of `Bondagechile.cl` and says he began practicing shibari in 2004. The live official BondageChile site keeps the project active as a Santiago education shell with 2025 talks and workshops, while its current official Instagram surface is `@ropeshop.bdcl`; the matching public Instagram profile identifies that handle as Christian Nawa Leiva, labels him `Rigger/Dom`, and links back to the BondageChile site. Added as the compact public lead for Bondage Chile without inferring lineage, certification or broader collaborator fan-out.
