Shinju
Shinju (from the Japanese (真珠) meaning pearl) is a word used euphemistically in Japanese to refer to the female breast. It is also popularly used as the name of a type of female halter top in the clothing industry.
It has been popularly claimed that "shinju" is an authentic Japanese term for a breast bondage tie. The tie is usually shown to be something similar to what in the west bondage is called a "bikini harness". There is however, no such tie called a "shinju" found in historic or present "Kinbaku" (Japanese Bondage). The word was erroneously applied to Japanese Rope Bondage in Europe in the mid-1990s by commercial websites.
The basic or foundational Kinbaku form of binding the arms and breasts is known as the "Ushiro Takate-kote"; which is to bind the arms behind (ushiro) the back in a box arm position (takate-kote). This basic box arm tie originally found in the samurai martial art of Hojōjutsu (捕縄術) or Nawajutsu, (縄術) evolved into its erotic usage at the end of the 19th century and early 20th century and is foundational to most other Kinbaku ties.

Template:Cat6 There are so many, many knots available to us all. There are three specific knots that I will talk about here.
This knot can tie two ropes or two ends of a rope together.
This knot is used to tie a non-slip loop on the end of a rope
I think the usage of this handcuff knot is self-explanatory
The name of the game is "Bondage and Discipline", not "Cuffs and Discipline". Bondage is an elemental part of B&D sessions. If you are insecure about your knot-tying abilities, your client will definitely notice it.
These three knots above should be considered 'bare minimum requirements' for anyone wishing to do sessions. For safety reasons, you should also be able to tie and untie them in the dark.
