More about RPM Classes

RPM Classes has been described by many student's as their "happy place." c:

On any given week, every orientation, age, gender expression, and relationship style will flow through our doors. We laugh, banter, and cheer each other on through the lows and highs of learning. Knowing every success is worth celebrating.

The Student body has had roughly... 6 "classes" or generations of students who have completed majority of the course material. So there are not only the core 3 instructors there to help, but layers of kind and knowledgeable peers.

Your RPM Journey would start with Base Basics, a 3.5 hour Monday night where you learn anatomy, physiology, and interpersonal basics. Next on Tuesdays: patterns, games, and everything "From the Ground Up". Where you gain the knowledge to test into suspension. The air courses are Thursday nights and have an Open Rope after. The Suspension class is Sky's the Limit. It is a progression of poses to practice.

Class is completely go at your own pace.

    (she/her)

    Owner, Teacher

    Summer met Ravix & Winter in 2018, they they had just moved Rope Class to a new location. Their Rope skills combined with her dance and martial arts background unfolded into a showy & energetic style. We root our play on the concept of challenge and the desire to overcome. Summer is a model, rigger, & self tier who has inspired many to do the same. Including her own Master and Girlfriend, who both have said that she made it look so fun and easy that they wanted to try too. She does this a lot

    https://lunarclover.com/ Winter is an Herbalist and long time Rope Model. She has worked with a variety of professionals and students over the years. She gives detailed feedback. Her soft, delightful perspective has been a feature of RPM's cheerful and welcoming environment. Winter and Ravix began teaching together as a way to expand their knowledge. After a car accident in 2016, she began a journey of body work and healing that would inspire her teaching wellness. She is a pro escape artist.

  • Ravix DeWolf (Ravix)

    Ravix DeWolf (Ravix)

    (he/him)

    Owner, Teacher

    Ravix is an autodidact. His perpetual curiosity and drive to explore things declared "impossible" has led his life. He is the soft spoken big brother figure of RPM. Always willing to help, inspire, teach, and challenge to a race... his enthusiasm seeks out those who are feeling inspired. Helping people live out their dreams is his greatest motivator and it has led to many of the delightful elements of RPM's network. Sadism for Health & Wellness and The Chemicals at Play are both worth seeing.
