The "Shapes, Shapes, Shapes!" tech dumps will each focus on a particular tie/pose/suspension, with different options based on each participant’s level of experience. For those newer to suspension, each can be performed as a partial or full static suspension, coming back out of the suspension by reversing the steps taken to get there. For those...
A self-suspension duo class of various extrema! Cegregia (she/they) and Addie (she/her) have polar opposite selfie styles yet enjoy and admire each other’s work. Together they will take you on a tour of contrasts: minimalist to elaborate, structure to chaos, dynamic to duration. Addie starts and ends on a single column, and Cegregia doesn't get...

To suspend the other with ropes can offer a huge variety of different experiences at once. It can bring the person in ropes into a completely different state at best and be a stressful and harmful experience at worst. The attraction of suspension rope work presents itself in many ways and it is obvious...
This class will look at hand and finger multitasking techniques to move rope smoothly and efficiently, saving the tying person's fingers and the person in rope's skin, while increasing control, contact, and connection between tying partners. The class will provide several exercises to be used long-term to develop skills and build muscle memory, thus leaving...
This exploration takes the participation on a journey behind the scenes of “the scene”. We will ask ourselves what it could mean that something seemingly so private could possibly be thought of as political. And in asking that, we will find out that if we study certain practices from a historical perspective, we automatically show...
