FLYING SOLO?
Make the first step alone; a person becomes part of the whole — not by losing themselves by not engaging, but by arriving more fully because they made the step.

How do I start?
What begins as a solitary journey slowly unfolds into something greater: exchanged glances, a rhythm of shared breath, borrowed courage. You find others walking parallel paths, and together you begin to build something neither of you could have dreamed alone.
In the warmth of community, the path becomes clearer. Not because the questions vanish, but because you’re no longer carrying them alone.
Make the step.

Tensions SOLO options
Find your Dō – your Path, your Way. 💜
Fundamentals; the beginning of all journey's at Tension
No matter if you are with or without partner, fundamentals is a stepping stone to starting you on your learning journey and giving you the tools to maintain the relationships you will establish.
Once that is out of the way a few more learning opportunities will open up to you.
After that, our main curriculum classes are divided by levels of mastery for paired individuals.
This can be difficult to progress if you do not have a partner.
A few paths are still available.
NAWAJUTSU
A Body Manipulation, Movement & Flow Class — dynamic, technical, and interactive — dedicated to a recurring time slot focused on refining fluidity, connection, and efficiency in rope movements.
We begin from a mindset of self-mastery: learning how to move, center, and control your own body before finding a binôme (partner) to work with. By first building solo awareness and precision, you’ll be better prepared to connect intentionally, move fluidly, and guide or be guided with skill and purpose.
Workshops
Every few months we have a self tying workshop given by external teachers. We are not excited about selftying ourselves so we bring in folks who are experts at it. You can see when the next is scheduled below.
PRIVATE LESSONS
Whether you are from out of town, you want to learn something specific that is not covered in the group classe curriculum, or just want a more intimate and direct learning experience.
Private lessons are also an option.

Social Activities
First saturday of every month is the official SOCIAL. From 16h30 to 18h come and meet people talk about what got you interested in rope or alternative activities and meet people interested in finding partners.
Every other week we also have a social after wednesdays lvl 1 class 21h30 people come and hang out. Until... We ask you politely to leave.
Two events also take place on wed during floorplay class "Bound to connect" being one of them meant to meet new tying partners. This event is USUALLY scheduled on the second wed of the month 18H
