EQUIPMENT

Clothing

Please wear something that you feel comfortable tying in / getting tied in, considering both movement and temperature.
For models, we prefer fitted clothing similar to yoga attire.
We advise against restrictive clothing such as jeans, underwire bras, jewelry, etc.
We practice barefoot or with socks.

ROPE

You will need a minimum of 3 jute or hemp ropes, preferably 5-6mm in diameter and 7-8m in length. Suitable rope can also be purchased at the studio (please contact us beforehand).

WHAT'S NEXT?

Depending on your intentions, we offer the possibility to grow into a more advanced way of tying during kumite. If you would like to learn more about suspension, the TWO course might be something to consider.
