Elfego Shibari

Elfego Shibari is a Mexican nawashi in the Ichinawa-ryū.

Era: 2020s

NAWASHI · TEACHER · ARTIST

Mexico City-facing rope artist and teacher working publicly as Elfego Shibari / Elfego Bakushi. A legacy official shibari.jp roster copy lists `Elfego Shibari` among Second-Class Instructor License holders; the current bilingual lessons roster no longer includes him, so no active licence is inferred. BANGOVER's 2024 shibari episode identifies the public Instagram `@elfegomagneto` plus TikTok / Facebook `Elfego Shibari`, and Studio Berlin's 2025 CDMX workshop listing names `Elfego-Bakushi` in a shibari workshop context.
