RopeJam: Hogtie vs Ebi

Organizer: PollyPerhaps, Ropemarks & Savia

An evening of inspiration for anyone who enjoys folding up their model.

About the session

Polly and Ropemarks take every opportunity for a playful argument over which direction is most interesting to fold up your model. Hogtie or Ebi? Come to Nawa, try both, and pick a side. ;-) We offer inspiration and guidance for anyone interested, exploring new solutions together as a group. Lighthearted learning in a co-creative setting. If you do not switch, please register together with a rigger or model to avoid being left on the sidelines. Prerequisites for rigger: Single Column Tie and some kind of friction lock. You do not need advanced technical skills, but it helps if the person tying ties frequently, enjoys it, and understands what a harness is. Prerequisites for model: You need to know how your body works in rope and be able to explain it clearly during negotiation.
