Description
Dynamic Floor Rope:
The first of our intermediate series of classes, Dynamic Floor Rope teaches you how your ropes will act on a body when forces are applied to them, and how to use that to your advantage! Learn to move a body into the poses and shapes you want with minimal exertion. Enforce posture, contort a partner into delightfully compromising positions, or utilize rope to turn a person’s body against itself in a devilish predicament. This will be a more technical class that teaches a few key techniques and structures and gives you three popular patterns that combine them for different applications.
---------------------------------------------------------
We’ll cover a versatile hog-tie, the classic Ebi or ‘Shrimp’ tie, and a leg-spreading exposure tie inspired by one taught by Georg Barkas of studio allegory. We'll go over some ways to modify these ties for the proportions and comfort of our tying partners, and provide some examples of how these techniques can be used with other ties you know. We’ll talk about tying rope under tension, in-line single columns, choosing appropriate poses, body mechanics, protecting joints and evaluating safe range of motion. We’ll also touch on some things to consider when resistance or unexpected movement could come into play during a scene, ways to incorporate a fixed point, and discuss more broadly how rope can be used to manipulate the human body with mechanical advantage.
---------------------------------------------------------
Core Concepts:, How rope acts on a body under dynamic load, using mechanical advantage. In-line single column / hojo-cuff, rope pulleys, ratcheting via hogtie, ebi(shrimp), and leg-spreader exposure tie.
---------------------------------------------------------
Riggers will find it easiest to explore these concepts if you are able to bring a partner to tie. While the knots and techniques we cover can be self-tied by a creative student: we encourage solo-riggers to pair up in order to get the most out of the practical sections.
---------------------------------------------------------
As a prerequisite for this class: Tying students must have taken a 101 class and be able to tie at least one kind of non-collapsing single column knot. An understanding of rope risks and safety is required to use the techniques we’ll be demonstrating. Students are advised to bring 2 or 3 30ft lengths of rope as loaner bundles will be in limited supply.

::: AFTER ::: Trying something new, we’ve rented the venue for an extra hour to have an unstructured jam/practice session after the class proper ends. Get input on what you’ve been working on from our instructor /other riggers, follow along with someone else, meet someone new to tie with or show-off that neat trick you just figured out! You can save yourself a spot by purchasing a higher tier ticket, or if you just want to drop in you can make a cash contribution at the door.
