Your long-awaited self-tie jam is here! If you came to the last jam, you would’ve met TheGoblinAgenda, an avid selt-tier. Whether you’re a seasoned self-tier or interested in exploring, this event is open to all experience levels. Sliding scale also available!
March 28-29 Weekend - The Prep with Odys & Paige

April 11-12 Weekend - The Prep with Odys & Paige
This weekend intensive was so popular that the presenters are adding another one. Tickets first went out to those on the March workshop’s waiting list and will be open on March 6th to everyone else.
Fri April 24 Evening - 3rd & 4th Rope for TK in Semenawa with Erato-Bänana
Adding a third or fourth rope to a TK (takate kote) is a common practice in semenawa, enriching the tie by adapting it to specific needs and intentions. This workshop will focus on how to incorporate these additional ropes across a variety of contexts.
Sat April 25 - Kinbaku without Chest Harness with Erato-Bänana - Sold out
In most Japanese-inspired styles, chest harnesses – especially TKs – are a central element: practical, aesthetic, and an ideal way to connect with the person in ropes. How can we tie the hands in a creative way while maintaining technical precision, aesthetic consistency, and a clear dialogue with the person in ropes?
Sun April 26 - Transitions in Semenawa with Erato-Bänana
Transitions are often associated with dynamic styles and less frequently with semenawa. During this workshop we will explore a suspension sequence and learn how it can be tied and adapted to the energy and intention we wish to express.
May 16-17 Weekend - The Kata 2 with Odys, Paige & Kym
The Kata 2 workshop is devoted to studying a second set of selected full-suspension Naka-style shapes.
June 19-21, Fri-Sun. Wildties & RedSabbath, Class 1
We are thrilled to offer you this iconic 3-day workshop from this incredible pair of highly-sought after international presenters from Rome.
Aug 8-9, Sat-Sun. Playing the Long Game - Slow-Burn Suspensions and Predicaments with Brooklyn & HatmanJack
An advanced weekend intensive exploring the “slow burn” of rope through gradual constriction, micro-transitions, and intentional stillness. Designed for experienced pairs with suspension fundamentals, the workshop blends technical precision with emotional strategy to create deeper intensity, physical challenge, and connection in rope.
