About This Event
In this special edition we will be tying our partners or ourselves into giant spiderwebs or even mummies. How to wrap someone up from head to toe is an amazing experience and it simultaneously trains your rope handling and your understanding of how to tie. After the class we have a pumpkin tying competition with a great price for the winning team (solo participation welcome).
This class is a great opportunity to try out these techniques. Solo participants are welcome, and we encourage you to pair up with others or join an existing group. However, please note that active practice for solo participants cannot be guaranteed.
Participants of the intro to rope series have free access to the open jam directly after the class.
