Bamboo Fun (against all odds)


  • Daruma Neukölln, Berlin (map)

with RopuNawa & FreyaHellesdim

Tying bamboo onto the body can be a lot of fun, as it is restrictive even without a lot of rope or elaborate techniques. In this workshop, we will create simple and effective ties to hold the bamboo on the body, using it in a playful way to create shapes – with and around the bamboo. 

We will explore options for tying the body into bamboo on the floor, in suspension, and also combining it with Hashira!

Let’s see if you make the bamboo your model’s friend or opponent...

This workshop is suitable for different levels, but you should at minimum have experience with using suspension lines. You can have fun analysing techniques and exploring play together even as a relative beginner, and experienced riggers can enjoy scouting new horizons and putting your own taste on the content.

You should bring at least 8 ropes, various lengths can be useful but are not a requirement. Adapting is a valuable skill. Please also bring carabiners.
