BASIC SUSPENSION – Part 1
Presented by: Graydancer
Location: Disco
One of the many thrilling ways to play with rope lies in the realm of suspension – taking away not only the movement of the bottom, but even their connection to the earth.

In this class, Graydancer will explain the various aspects of creating a suspension scene – hard points, hardware, rope choice, basic knots, safety concerns, and more. He will also teach a basic hip harness and chest harness that can be used for a safe and relatively comfortable horizontal face-up suspension. Depending on class time and size, this may be a hands-on class, or it may be restricted to a demo. However, Graydancer will also be available later in the event for “office hours” for more one-on-one coaching on what was learned in the class.
