SUMMARY:Intro to Suspension Lines
DESCRIPTION:(Location to be disclosed to participants after signing up.) \nEverything from hanger to hardpoint! This class will cover uplines\, the main load bearing vertical lines that run between a harness and a suspension point. Being the only thing keeping gravity from winning in a suspension\, strong hangers\, good handling practices\, and solid lock-offs are a safety must. \nThis is an individual-based class: you will not need a partner to participate. We will not be fully suspending any humans in this class\, but it is a lead-in to other classes on rope suspension an a strongly recommended prerequisite. \nWe will cover: \n-choosing a loading line: rope types and wear considerations\n-hanger options: when and where to use them -to biner or not to biner and how to save your bight\n-setting up the pulley system\n-safe handling for raising and lowering the uplines: how to use friction to your advantage\n-Lockoffs: single point\, bamboo\, and hanger side\n-finishing the leftover ends\n-common things that can go wrong and best practices to recover \nIndividual class: no partner component\nPre-req: any single column tie \nBring:\n2+ ropes: suspension rated preferred (such as posh/hempex/quality nylon/new\, larger diameter jute or hemp)\, and bringing multiple different kinds to try out is encouraged. \nSafety cutting tool \nBamboo/rings/carabiners will be available\, however feel free to bring your own ring and other upline-relevant suspension equipment if you would like to practice with it. \n

SUMMARY:Futomomos
DESCRIPTION:The futomomo is a classic Japanese leg tie that balances restraint with grace. This 2-hour session breaks down the foundational structure of futomomo while exploring how individual riggers adapt this timeless form to their own aesthetic and practical preferences. \n\nWhat You’ll Learn: \n\nThe anatomical considerations and pressure distribution unique to thigh binding\nTraditional futomomo construction and modern variations\nRope path efficiency and tension management for comfort and security\nSafety protocols specific to thigh circulation and nerve sensitivity\n\nWith: Ethaerial\, Katabaound\, and Bondage Cupcakes \nDuration: 2 hours \nFutomomo serves as both a standalone aesthetic piece and a gateway to more complex suspensions. This workshop emphasizes the dialogue between tradition and personal style—understanding why each rope path exists\, then discovering where you might make it your own. \nA supportive\, safety-first environment with hands-on practice and personalized feedback. \nJoin Ethaerial\, Katabound\, and Bondage Cupcakes in a 2 hour futomomo workshop.
