Intermediate: Chapter 1: Single Column +

Welcome to our Intermediate Series, to take your rope skills from beginner to proficient!

In this first class, we will deep dive into the single column, one of the fundamental ties in shibari. Get ready to break down the geometry of this beautiful cuff and how to tie any body part, large or small. Participants will learn how to make sure their single columns are secure and functional and assess important structural elements for comfort and safety.

Pre-requisites: all participants must have completed our beginner series or have equivalent tying experience; please check our Beginner curriculum page for more information.

Riggers must be able to tie a single column in 1 minute or less - this will be tested at the start of class.

What to wear/bring: 1-2 hanks of rope and comfortable clothing
