A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

Spirit+Flesh UK Tour

I just talked to Fakir Musafar earlier today and he mentioned that there are still some spots left in the UK dates of his Spirit+Flesh workshops and rituals next month (more here). You may recall he wrote about it in his column as well — the photo below is from that same mountain, of Grin from Chicago.

This tour will be the first time he’s toured the UK in over a decade. You can contact him via fakirtour.com which has all the details, or via his main site at fakir.org. Fakir is presenting and facilitating ritual in a way that perhaps offers different insights and experiences than the majority of suspension and ritual paths in the Western world… If this is what you’re looking for, there is no one more experienced.

    Unfortunately I have been unable to organise the time away or child care which is a major pain in the cocoa shunter.

    I’d give my right arm to be able to participate.
    🙁

    Too bad I’m a minor, and about to be a parent.

    I’ve come over all blonde, can someone explain to me what it means when it says… “Please note that there is a strict fetish / body art dress-code for this event.” I understand the fetish bit, but what is a body art dress code?

    If any of you have the opportunity to do any sort of work shop or ritual with Fakir, I highly recommend it. Fakir is an absolute pleasure to be around.

    I was able to attend a hook pull last year with Fakir. It was such an amazing experience. Its neat to see the 0 gauge permanent holes in his chest in person :D. Not to mention the spirituality of the experience was beyond belief.
