Jam

The jam is open to everyone, whether you’re just starting out, or you’re already more experienced. There will be a mini-workshop on a starter skill, followed by time to practice. You can also skip the mini-workshop and directly start on your own.

 

Hardpoints (including bamboo) will be available for suspension, but only make use of a hardpoint after explicit consent from @Lokka <3

 

Mini-workshop – Single Column Tie (SCT)

At the beginning of the evening, @Lokka will host a mini-workshop / peer learning group where we’ll be diving into single column ties. You can participate at all levels, especially if you’re new to rope, as this gives you a strong foundation to build upon. By making this also a peer learning group, we want to encourage you to share your insights, tips and tricks as well. 

 

A single column tie is one of the most fundamental tools in rope. It’s a way of tying around one “column”, such as a wrist, an ankle, or even an object, and it often serves as the starting point for many patterns, but also improvisational ties. Learning this tie gives you a versatile base to expand from.

 

Location

The venue is in Hilversum of which you will get the address of once you have bought a ticket. Parking can be a bit hard, as the reviews of the parking garage closest by are not good and better ones are at an 8 minutes walk. Hilversum Station is also 10 minutes away by foot.

 

When you arrive at the building, the entrance is near the bike parking. The door is locked, so someone will be awaiting you there. 

 

We truly love the new space, it has an amazing layout. The downside however is that the space is located at the 5th floor and there is NO LIFT, making the venue quite inaccessible. The spiral staircase has some space to rest in between floors if needed.

 

The temperature in the space can be a bit hard to manage, so it would be wise to bring both warm and cold clothing. Mats are provided.

 

Throughout the evening, coffee, tea, lemonade and (vegan) snacks will be available.

Help! I don’t have any rope

No problem, there will be rope to borrow. Besides that, there will also be (Japanese made jute) rope of Haag from Ellipsis for sale. We only take several bundles with us, so if you want to buy more than 3 ropes, please contact us before the event.
