September Rope in Seattle

Welcome to the September edition of Rope in Seattle!

As we head toward fall, we’re particularly excited about all the visiting instructors coming to Seattle:

• We begin on 9/13 with three classes by Air: Hands free chest harnesses, Pre-flight for self suspension, and Up in the Air.

• The weekend of 10/4, KinbakuArtistMiki is teaching Neo-Ippon Nawa and TK: A Natural Approach, as well as doing a performance.

• Finally, on 10/8, Tom Roper and Joel are teaching One Long Rope.

The end of summer brings a goodbye and a farewell:

• The last Seattle Ropes in Motion of the year is on Tuesday 9/9.

• Arborea Falls is closing, which means that Saturday 9/13 is the last ever Naughty Knots. We’ll miss you, and wish you the very best on your next adventure.

Rope in Seattle is updated weekly and is available via the free web, email, RSS, and Google Calendar.
