About the Workshop

Speaking in Tension is a beginner-friendly rope workshop that teaches rope as a language.

Rather than focusing on memorizing patterns or chasing aesthetics, this class explores how rope communicates through tension, friction, pace, and intention, and how those same dynamics show up in our relationships.

In this workshop, we’ll explore:

~ Rope as communication, not control

~ How intention shapes the experience of rope

~ Safety as an ongoing dialogue

~ Rope anatomy, types, and handling

~ Single-column foundations and what you can do with them

~ Speed, tightness, and space, and how each changes the dynamic

~ The difference between knots and frictions

~ How tension and friction work together to hold

~ A clear framework for understanding and creating frictions

~ How rope can mirror how you communicate in everyday life

You’ll leave with a shared language you can continue using long after the class ends.
