Forms

Level 4 with Syd

Through in depth guided instruction and hands-on practice we will examine the artistry and function of static shapes in suspension. Emphasis will be placed on creative expression, sustainability in suspension, and awareness of safety and risk considerations.  Students will refine their rope handling, tension, control, precision, and flow, while continuing to build the scaffolding of their rope technique.

This class is best suited for tying partners who have a strong grasp of fundamentals, who have some experience in partial suspension (see prerequisites below) and tie together frequently. This class is not recommended as anyone’s first suspension.

Prerequisites:

We strongly recommend that both rigger and model have taken several level three classes, or comparable partial or beginner suspension level classes, before proceeding to FORMS.  We require at least one partner of each pair to have taken Rope0.

Rigger prerequisites: experience building and assessing suspendable harnesses, some experience building static uplines, confident in rope communication skills, knowledge of safety and risk in rope.

Bottom prerequisites: confident in-rope communication skills, knowledge of safety and risk in rope, confident ability to monitor and communicate signs of nerve compression

Pairs should have tied together multiple times.

Supplies:
One full rope kit. This class will be taught on bamboo, no additional rigging gear is required.
