Founder & Owner

Anna Bones fell in love with shibari in 2013 and co-founded Anatomie Studio in 2015. She has taught and performed worldwide but loves welcoming beginners to her home studio. Passionate about all aspects of rope—self-tying, bottoming, and rigging—she sees it as a tool for self-discovery, trust, and intimacy. She describes herself as a bottom who ties and a shy rigger. Her passion is teaching beginners and setting them off on a path to self-discovery. Anatomie is her pride and joy.

Founder & Owner

Fred Hatt is a co-founder of Anatomie Studio and an experienced shibari educator for close to a decade. He regularly teaches in London and abroad focusing on both the “how” and “why” of rope. Known for his technical approach, he pays close attention to the small details that make a tie work. His style leans towards transitions and predicaments, and while naturally introverted, he is a thoughtful and dedicated teacher invested in making information accessible and practical.

Volunteer & Teacher

Jenni Noon began exploring shibari as a model in 2020. Connection is at the heart of her practice — her experience in rope shaped above all by relationships with people she cares about deeply.

As a yoga teacher and dancer, she's fascinated by movement research, with current obsessions in Butoh and clown. She loves experimenting at the intersection of these practices, especially in collaboration with other artists.

Passionate about education and empowering models, she finds joy in creating spaces where people feel safe to explore, get creative and let go.

Core Team

Since 2016, Goddessinrope has been exploring Shibari, evolving from private practice to teaching both locally and internationally. With experience on both sides of the rope, she focuses on technique and enjoyment, tailoring her instruction to each student. She is a long-time instructor at beginner’s jams and in-house courses – and practically part of the furniture!

Volunteer & Teacher

Pen (he/him) is a bottom-leaning rope switch from the UK who loves exploring the emotions and vulnerability of shibari. 

Initially, he approached Shibari as ‘just another form of bondage’, but soon realised it is something much more profound than this. Pen ties with many people with different styles, but he always falls back towards his love for power exchange and surrender. - “The worst way to torture Pen is to tie him in a way that is easy to escape..”

He has taught and performed at events across the UK, Europe, the US, and Southeast Asia. Passionate about rope bottoming education and safety, he uses his extensive training in human anatomy and physiology to empower both bottoms and riggers to explore rope play more safely and freely.

Emily (she/her) has been coming to Anatomie since moving to London in 2021 and in that time has really enjoyed learning through all the courses with different partners as well as self tie workshops. She joined the volunteers in 2023 and started bottoming/co-teaching for beginners in 2024.

Jamie (they/them) is an extroverted rope switch who started their kink journey in Norwich in 2020 before moving to London and falling in love with Shibari. Inspired by their background in femdom, queer kink, and love of sadomasochism, Jamie uses rope to communicate, play, tease and torment. They are dedicated to building and maintaining community, and endeavor to facilitate events and share their experiences wherever possible in order to make the scene welcoming and accessible for everyone.

Volunteer & Teacher

north_rose (she/her) is a writer and editor by trade. who found shibari in 2018 and her happy place on the volunteer team in 2022. She loves being a friendly face for new arrivals at the studio - particularly fellow quiet or anxious folks in need of a little extra moral support. Her instinctive preference is to bottom in rope, but she’s also expanded into tying: first herself, and more recently others.

Chronic illness has intensified her curiosity about why things feel the way they do, sparking a strong interest in rope’s effect on our bodies and brains, and how we (bottoms as well as tops!) can mediate that effect.

As a teacher, she’s committed to helping those being tied access the best information, and is adamant that bottoming involves its own set of concrete, teachable skills.

His rope style is playful and he enjoys exploring physicality, eroticism and queering traditional rope dynamics.
