Breathe. Shift your balance. Walk, weave, occupy the space—and disappear. Now, do it all with your partner, a rope, and the magic of movement. In this workshop, we’ll transform into an organic system: unpredictable yet beautifully organised, learning to move freely and naturally within the ropes.
Body handling as a skill is sometimes overshadowed by rope technique, yet it can be what distinguishes a good session from a great one. The ability to move safely and with confidence is more than just the act of "physically relocating" body parts: It can expand your creative options and allows the expression of intent when tying, as the manner in which a person is moved can evoke a wide range of emotional responses and invite engagement.
Elemental Forces: Explore how Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Ether enhance the structure, mood, and intention of rope scenes on the floor and in the air.
A movement framework to understand and build narrative within rope scenes via rope handling, harnesses and transitions.
