WHO WE ARE
AerialKnotics is a Burning Man theme camp for rope bondage, ice water flogging and more. We provide classes, live performances and other activities with several hundred participants each year.
AerialKnotics receives funding from Aerialnautics, an IRS-recognized 501(c)3 nonprofit organization dedicated to aerial arts safety education and performances. Our core principles include diversity and inclusion of all body types, identities and orientations.
WHAT WE DO
CLASSES
We provide beginner and intermediate level instruction in rope bondage technique and safety.
ART TOURS
Each year we gather groups of participants and explore the Playa to practice what we have learned.
PERFORMANCES
Our choreographed performances demonstrate skills connected to our classes.
How WE SHARE
AerialKnotics, previously known as Campocalypse, was established at Burning Man in 1997. Several team members have extensive experience as rope bondage riggers, and some have participated in Burning Man more than two dozen times.
We aim for maximum impact at Burning Man with a very small camp – about a dozen people. In 2022 we delivered more than half of all classes and events on this topic among 80,000 participants at Black Rock City.
