Gestalta sets out to teach how to bind a model or partner so that they are suspended in the air. This is a book for those who already have some experience with shibari and want to progress to exploring suspensions. The book shows how to assess and prepare the suspension points, and goes into great detail about the safety aspects of suspending a person with ropes.

The book goes on to show how to tie some fundamental harnesses and gives step by step guidance on how to perform various suspensions.
