Intro to Escape Artistry Workshop

Do straight jackets, ropes, chains, and hand cuffs interest you? (And no not in THAT way) Want to spice up your fire shows, side shows, or just want to learn a nifty new skill set? Well then this class might be for you! We will go over techniques for picking the 2 top brands of handcuffs with bobby pins, techniques for being tied up at the wrist, and from 100ft of rope. Also we will go over how to PERFORM a straight jacket esc...ape. I emphasize perform because I do my escapes for shows to entertain, not for speed/records/etc. Each student will also get a chance to lay on a bed of nails!

This class has no prerequisites and all materials will be provided; though feel free to bring your own straight jacket, handcuffs, or spool of 100ft of rope, if you have them! This class is geared towards adults but interested teens are welcome to attend with parental permission.
