No. Every module works on your own leg, a chair leg, or a practice frame. Bring a partner in whenever you're ready — nothing here assumes one.
Yes. Buy Learn the Ropes outright and it's yours to keep — no membership, no recurring charge. The subscription is optional if you want the rest of the library.
Two beginner-safe lengths and a clear bit of floor. We show exactly what to buy in the first module — and a dressing-gown cord counts while you practise the early ties.
The early modules move quickly, and the later ones tighten the details most self-taught riggers skip. If you can already tie a clean single column, jump in around module four.
About three hours across eight modules. Most people do one module a day, roughly twenty minutes at a time, each ending with a drill you can run solo.
If you bought the course outright, yes — forever. On membership, access pauses when you cancel, but you can pick up exactly where you left off if you come back.
