Six Students Simple Self Suspension
I am opening up this workshop to be an intensive for just 6 students that want to fly!
Capped at 6 students for maximum focus time, safety and being able to develop individuals depending on level.
The studio is booked for 6hrs:
1pm - 5pm Intensive Workshop.
5pm - 7pm Additional Jam/practice/Social Time - this is also time to ask any questions and go over anything you want, I'll be on standby to help.
Cost is £80 each cash on the day - please reach out if you are in financial difficulty/unemployed as I may be able to offer one discounted ticket.
This is aimed at being a Zero to Hero / Floor to Fly course as to how you can use your rope to partially suspend and full suspend with yourself as the model.
Together you will learn:
- To Suspend an item - Learn how to lock off your lines first!
- Simple harness options for: chest, waist/hips/thighs.
- Attachment points - where to put your lines - depending on the effect you want.
- Quick release single column - trust me it's useful in suspension ;)
- A dynamic option for quick self suspension (from standing) and slow steady option building from partials (from floor)
- Partially suspend yourself and go full if comfortable.
- Learn about different types of ropes and suspension points and practice with different kinds of rings.
- Get Advice on what you could buy and also avoid the kink-tax when shopping.
All activity will be spotted. Only 3 suspension points will be up and students will take it in turns to use under supervision.
We will not cover transitions in the air, and you won't learn intricate ties for aesthetics. The rope I teach is practical and kept as simple as I can make it.
This is a LGBTQIA+ friendly event. Welcoming all genders ages 18+ 🏳️🌈
In terms of physical ability, you will need to be able to reach your ankles and around your body. Most of the activity will be done from seated on the floor, but there will be options to tie from standing also.
About Me:
I discovered the London BDSM scene in 2012 and Shibari/Rope Bondage became a major part of my life in 2013. Since then I've found my style is a mish-mash of influences as I've had the great fortune to do workshops with many international practitioners either as they passed through the UK or as I've travelled. I've performed and taught workshops around the world including Singapore, Estonia, Cyprus, Berlin and across the UK.
Shibari, also known as Japanese Rope Bondage it means 'to tie'. Since my style is not traditional, I prefer to say that I just do rope and both model and tie switching between the two, or sometimes both at the same time.
I love how rope connects people together and most recently found more joy in teaching, making rope less complicated.
