The Rope Collective presents The Rope Clinic

This class will be focused on gaining mobility in your hips and mobilizing the low spine to make hip loaders, gun slingers + other hip ties.

This event will take place at The Rope Collective Studio in Barrio Logan, San Diego. Visit the Contact + Location tab of our website for studio access information.

EVENT DETAILS:

This class will be focused on gaining mobility in your hips and mobilizing the low spine to make hip loaders, gun slingers, and other hip harnesses more comfortable. No worries if you have no gym equipment, you’ll only need your rope, a wall, and to be a willing participant. Come loosen those tight hips and spines at the first ever Rope Clinic by The Rope Collective. It’ll be good for those not new to rope but new to mobility.

About your facilitators:

Dean: Certified for 8.5 years specializing in strength and functional training with disabilities and injuries. They want to teach you mobility to make your favorite rope ties more accessible.

submissivetiger: submissivetiger is a rope artist, performer, educator, community event organizer. Her focus is on modifications in rope for every body, creating liberating experiences and connection with rope, informed consent, negotiation, and aftercare as the medium. Her style is a balance of sensual and primal expression.

Prerequisites:

NOT FOR THOSE WITH NO ROPE EXPERIENCE - we will not be covering foundational rope information or covering technical patterns or ties.

Please come prepared with a hip harness or leg tie of your choice.
