SATURDAY – 6/9 7PM – 9PM SLACKING OFF SILKS WITH PAPER DOLL MILITIA – FULL
“Slag Drag” theory is a termed coined by Rain Anya and Sarah Bebe Holmes of Paper Doll Militia. We realized that there are countless ways that you can “drag” the “slack” of a piece of fabric or rope to create new and interesting ways into your standard wraps. In this workshop, every sequence taught will have some element of slack dragging, so that by the time you leave you will be thinking in circles and loops. PREREQUISITES: Intermediate Level and above.
