What is KinbakuOdyssey Studio (放浪緊縛)?

Founded in 2017, KinbakuOdyssey is a dedicated traditional kinbaku studio that is designed for scene videos and photoshoots. It is a reconstruction of a small traditional Japanese room (Washitsu). The KinbakuOdyssey logo means hōrō Kinbaku (放浪緊縛) in Japanese, which translates to wandering or searching. This reflects the essence of the journey of discovering your intent in bondage…

Who is Odys?

Odys (オディス) is kinbaku artist and educator who discovered the beauty of rope bondage eight years ago, and have been deeply dedicated to it ever since. Initially inspired by the traditional Japanese style bondage, I have attended workshops with many world class presenters to find his path.

In 2016, Odys had the privilege of meeting Naka Akira at a Baltimore workshop and subsequently traveled to Tokyo over the last six years to study exclusively with his teacher Naka san.

In 2017, Odys created KinbakuOdyssey Studio, where he continues to fully immerse himself into the art of kinbaku.

In 2018, Odys had become a member of Nawa Naka Kai, a rope group created by Naka Akira.

In 2022, Naka Akira sensei introduced Odys as his student in Tokyo, Japan, as well as endorsed him to teach basic Nakastyle.

In 2024, Odys has assisted Naka Akira at his US two-day workshop held in Richmond, VA., as well as performed at Naka sensei’s Semenawa Study Group (責め縄研究会) with his partner Paoige in Tokyo, Japan.

To Odys, kinbaku is a connective journey expressed through emotional transitions, evoked by progressive torment and power exchange. Each rope represents the catch and release of control. With each rope, Odys takes his partners on a journey of self discovery, exposing what they secretly crave. Odys’s unique expression of sensually erotic semenawa evokes sensations of pleasure and torment, ultimately pushing his partners to reveal their inner feelings and emotions to him.
