The Rope Collective Fly Series: Chest Harnesses (Copy)

Part of our Core Curriculum and the second part of our "Fly Series"!

We explore a variety of chest harness styles, including front-loading, back-loading, as well as arms-front and arms-free harnesses. Each style has been tailored to support body weight in suspension, emphasizing safety, comfort, and dynamic load management.

The Rope Collective Floor Series: Body Mechanics (Copy)

Part of our Core Curriculum and the third part of our “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.

These techniques are highly recommended to begin the third part of our series.
