Self Tying - tips, tricks and troubleshooting by Johanna

Self tying tips, tricks and troubleshooting

This workshop will focus on fundamentals of self tying, and will cover techniques for customising a tie for different aims, body types and rope experience.

The structure will be based around applying foundational rope skills, and exploring the effectiveness of different techniques for achieving desired tensions, shapes and feelings in rope.

Workshop attendees should be comfortable with a single column tie, and more advanced options will be covered for those comfortable with bamboo and/or ring lockoffs.

About Johanna

Johanna has been self tying for over 10 years, starting in the Washington DC scene before moving to Belfast. She enjoys exploring what works about a tie and why, and seeing if the why can be adapted elsewhere.
Johanna's style is centred around efficiency: what is needed, and how can it be achieved safely with a minimal toolset? The workshop is designed based on this.
