  Gandalf

  (they/them)

  Founder, teacher, organiser

  Gandalf is a professional Kinbaku artist and educator. They were trained as a cognitive scientist before becoming a full-time rope artist and the organiser of Embodied Flow. Working also as a theatre maker, Gandalf's teaching combines traditional Kinbaku with insights from both performing arts and cognitive sciences. They believe practicing rope is fundamentally a practice in "being together", and their curriculum places special emphasis on care, communication, and collaboration.
