MODEL · TEACHER

Russian-born, Berlin-based kinbaku model, rope-bottom educator, performer and writer behind Discover Kinbaku with Alexander MA. Discover Kinbaku describes Natasha as a truth seeker and embodiment enthusiast whose kinbaku practice seeks true emotions, authenticity and transformational potential. Her official profile adds a 2015 Certified Sexological Bodyworker training background and frames her teaching through breath, movement, sound, posture, subtle attention and embodied agency. Current Discover pages present her individual coaching for rope bottoms, her keynote topics Surrender in Ropes, Safety in Ropes and Kinbaku as Ritual, and her book Somatics for Rope Bottoms, including direct-order context and the September 2025 Italian edition. Dan Carabas' 2026 interview identifies her as author of Somatics for Rope Bottoms and frames her work around the inner experience of the person being tied. Discover Kinbaku and IKSK both place her in the Berlin teaching / performance context alongside Alexander. Prague Shibari Festival Spring 2026 lists Natasha NawaTaNeko and Alexander MA as presenters / performers.
