Somatic Surrender

Somatic surrender: A physical state of total surrender. Almost like trance. 

Physical Dominatrix Axira

Call me Axira. I am a martial artist and an established session wrestler, under a different name. Few, if any, can hold a man in check the way I do.

As dominatrix I have stripped the practice of physical domination and BDSM of both excess theatre. My style is direct and precise.

During a session I read your body with such accuracy that you do not even have to speak.

Sessions take place in a private dojo in Amsterdam, within the House of Bamboo. I built it with high quality mats, warm dark bamboo, balanced light and sound.

Here, you enter a system of clear protocols. Your application sets the frame of hard limits and determines a direction. You provide the parameters required to balance your session between

  • Command of the Body,
  • Command of the Senses,
  • Command of Lust.

Triad of Commands

The Triad balances your session between straightforward physical control, sensory play, and sexual governance: command of the body, the senses, and lust. The most extensive list of what you may endure in a session is found in the Lexicon of Actions. The balance is set by me, based on your input. Your limits will not be crossed, nor will mine. Most importantly: I do not engage in actions that cause lasting damage or put your health at risk — with health and risk judged from a strict medical perspective.


Command of your body is inevitable. You may act like a brat, and decide to resist while I wrestle you down. In competitive wrestling, I use real pins and leverage until you’re underneath me. Not resisting simply lets us move into the next stage without the delay of a struggle. This is your choice.

Command of the Body covers session wrestling, pins, and calibrated pressure. I use oxygen deprivation through carefully applied blood chokes, full immobilization, and restriction. Your neck locked between my thighs. Escape challenges, takedowns, and even forced exercise. Rope bondage and anchored restraint when total control is needed. Feet domination and trampling. Impact play with bare hands — precise hand spanking where I feel exactly what you feel. Sometimes whips or high-end tools, always applied with control.

When I take command of your senses, my inputs are the only sensations you’re able to register. Command of Senses covers controlled sensory deprivation and stimulation. Rope can be used to anchor you. I might introduce ice, heat, and contrasts that go beyond temperature play. Your attention and focus increase through rhythm or silence. Your vision is restricted, your balance manipulated, and your awareness fragmented. Feeling turns into experiencing.

This command covers the control of arousal, desire, and impulse. You are forced into states of excitement under restraint. Pressure is applied, withdrawn, reapplied. Penetration and restriction are often combined. Rope could be used as both confinement and provocation. Your body is exposed, denied, or overstimulated. Release is withheld or permitted on my terms.

House of Bamboo

House of Bamboo is both an order and a place. It is the structure under which all activity is organized, and it is a private location in Amsterdam where sessions take place inside its dojo. The name is symbolic and literal. Bamboo is stronger than most solid woods, yet it is lighter and bends without breaking. Bamboo is strength, endurance and balance embodied. And the location where in-person sessions take place, is literally made with bamboo.   

Under the House of Bamboo, only high-end and exclusive private sessions are offered. The House brings together distinct forms of control and transformation.
