# Module 3 · Fundamentals

The third module of the course. With the working base already in place, we study the **technical fundamentals**, *kihon* (基本): the foundations on which any discipline is built. The module covers **managing emotions** and desire through behavior, building restriction from the body of the person being tied, and the **guided exercises** for practicing it from both roles.

 Estimated reading time: 175 minutes.

 Our **method** consists of first mastering each element separately and then combining them with creative freedom. To do this, we break complex techniques down into simple, manageable parts that lend themselves to many different applications.

 These fundamentals allow you to **progress at your own pace**, steadily, and to develop your own style of shibari, according to your tastes and interests.
