Conclusion
17:32 Conclusion

A STYLE IS A MIX OF A PERSONS' THOUGHTS AND IDEAS. IT IS YOUR OWN INTERPRETATION, NOT A COPY. IT IS YOUR OWN WAY OF DOING THINGS.

Semenawa —
Semenawa is very often used to specify the exercise of torture / torment caused by the rope.
'Seme' means threat and 'Nawa' means rope.

Sekibaku —
"Obviously I do semenawa, but I prefer to consider that what I do is sekibaku. Sekibaku means threatening to tie (i.e. the thread through the tie), but not only with rope. The threat must come from my own presence, energy, and demeanor delightfully combined with the use of the rope."
— Ren Yagami

In this sense, Ren Yagami clears the path for development of other aspects such as erotic fantasies, allowing us to explore deep sexual desires and intentions.

— Nawasuji

A way to bind (i.e. techniques for tying the body with ropes)

— Taijutsu

How people use their bodies, both you (i.e. the rigger) and the model (i.e. techniques to control the body)

— Kyūsho-gaku

A detailed study of the key points (tools that allow to learn from the other person's reactions)
