Intensive Weekend Workshops

Weekend intensives offer a spacious container for the exploration of concept-driven rope styles. If you are an orginizer who would like to invite me to your community, please see general class descriptions I offer below.

Dynamic Minimalism — Tying with Movement

Dynamic Minimalism is an approach to rope that steps outside of traditional shapes or rigid patterns. Instead, it prioritizes function, responsiveness, and the evolving dialogue between movement and stillness.

This workshop explores:

• Minimal rope structures that support dynamic motion

• Continuous transitions between tying and untying

• Rope as a tool for guiding, resisting, and amplifying movement

• The relationship between breath, pacing, and tension

• Flow states and improvisation within intentional structure

Participants will be invited to shift their perception of rope from static form to living language that honors change, adaptability, and the beauty of the ephemeral. Equal emphasis is placed on untying as an active, expressive process, treating release as an integral element of the experience rather than an afterthought.

This workshop is well-suited for those interested in movement-based practice, performance exploration, or a more fluid, somatically-informed relationship with rope.
