In this workshop we’ll explore the unique possibilities that emerge when bamboo is attached directly to the body. You’ll learn foundational techniques for securing bamboo safely and effectively, balancing aesthetics with structure. We’ll cover pressure distribution, movement, and creative applications for both floor play and partial suspension.
Whether you’re after striking visuals, new body mechanics, or inventive sensory play, this class offers a hands-on introduction to bamboo as a partner in your rope practice.
You’ll Learn:
– How to attach bamboo to your partner with an eye towards both immobility and joint safety
– Classic approaches to body bamboo for play, both on the floor and in partial suspension
This class is part of our 301 class track, taught on the second Saturday and third Sunday of the month.
301 classes are designed for tying pairs preparing to explore suspension. You should be confident tying harnesses and managing rope under tension. We’ll focus on building the knowledge, skills, and communication habits that make suspension smoother - and safer - for everyone involved.
You Should Know:
• All bodies, experience levels, and tying styles welcome within the scope of the class.
• We will not be teaching uplines in this class. If you'd like a refresher, we recommend Crash Restraint: https://crash-restraint.com/blog/2012/04/27/attaching-support-lines
You Should Bring:
• Rope and hardware you’d use for partials or full suspension
• Harnesses you are already familiar with (your own or classic patterns)
• Curiosity, caution, and a willingness to experiment
