Curious about self-suspension, but need guidance with figuring out harnesses? Or maybe you’re already playing in the air, but want more nerdy knowledge? This workshop is for rope lovers ready to explore what is needed for lifting off. Ceci will guide you through tying your own harnesses with intention, precision, and care, laying the groundwork for safe and satisfying solo suspension. And then we will practice attaching suspension lines to the harnesses & locking off on ring, carabiner, and bamboo.
We’ll cover:
-
Two self-tied chest harnesses
-
Hip harness for different body shapes
-
Futomomo (leg binder)
-
How to connect suspension lines to these ties effectively and safely
- How to lock suspension lines
This is a hands-on, body-aware class—you’ll be tying on your own body and learning techniques that prioritize sustainability, nerve safety, and adaptability. All harnesses can be tied while seated if needed. While this is not a complete self-suspension workshop, it’s ideal for people who want to build toward that practice with strong fundamentals.
If you don’t have a suspension point, you can practice the locking techniques on furniture, fixtures – anything that is attached enough to be able to manage a little bit of tension. Get creative!

More Information
LGBTQIA+ describes the full spectrum of non-mainstream sexual orientation and/or gender identity, meaning: lesbian, gay, bisexual, pansexual, transgender, non-binary, genderqueer/fluid, queer, intersex, asexual, aromantic, agender.
Friends describe people of any and all kinds of gender and sexual identities who are aware and respectful of the necessity, needs, and boundaries of a queer space and its marginalized community.
When you consider yourself a friend you show acknowledgement to and are respectful of everyone's self-expression and do not assume, presume or project non-consensual ideas onto others. You actively request and use people's chosen pronouns. You remain mindful of the fact that Karada House is first and foremost a space for queer people that you are also invited to attend. You have a genuine concern for the well-being of LGBTQIA+ people and remain in awareness of heterosexual and gender-straight privileges.
Friends don't have to be perfect. None of us are. We request that we all proactively work and strive to be good friends and allies to marginalized people.
