About this Event
This event will take place at Studio in Barrio Logan, San Diego. Visit the Contact + Location tab of our website for studio access information.
CLASS DETAILS:
Part of our Core Curriculum and the third part of our beginner “Floor Series”! In this class, we will review the foundations and soft skills before diving into getting rope around the body, restricting movement, and moving the body around on the floor. This is designed to deepen your understanding of how to effectively wrap and attach body parts using rope. We will explore the nuances of moving a person who is tied, because they usually can’t move themselves! We will also go over hands-on techniques for adjusting and securing ties, ensuring that movement is both safe and sustainable.
Important note : Because this class is focused on moving bodies/being moved, we strongly recommend attending this class as a tying pair. Self/solo tiers are welcome to attend but please note majority of the content and exercises are designed for partnered tying.
