The majority of our team members are experienced rope tops (single or tying pair) with a passion for teaching and volunteerism. If you have the experience and qualifications, please contact us at info@aerialknotics.com
OUr 2025 team is already assembled.
Most of our team returns each year and we are not expanding our physical footprint. So we have another option: AerialKnotics welcomes selected guest speakers to use our “front of house” classroom infrastructure, and to be included in our published schedule. Contact us for details.
Our “front of house” infrastructure is designed for rope and BDSM instruction, classrooms and performances.
- 2,000 square foot (185 square meter) dual-layer (canopy + shade cloth) structure with 13 foot (4 meter) interior roof peaks to accommodate tall hard points.
- Four X-Pole A-Frame aerial rigs, and other furniture.
- Four large flat panel displays to show rope technique and other details for demonstrations.
- Wireless microphone audio system for classroom instructors.
- Full interior illumination at night, all color-selectable and dimmable.
For AerialKnotics team members, our “back of house” infrastructure includes:
- 3,000 square foot (275 square meter) dual-layer structure covers team members’ tents from direct sun along with the team’s dining and socialization area.
- Fully equipped bathroom with sink and flush toilet, and a large heated shower (within water conservation limits)
- Drinking water for all team members.
- Full kitchen with pressurized hot & cold water run through dual 5.0µ + 0.5µ filtration, cooking facilities, electric refrigeration, utensils and plates/bowls/glasses.
- Hot breakfast, and evening meals. Our kitchen includes an electric coffee maker with coffee.
- 100% solar electricity powers our water system, wastewater handling, interior illumination, kitchen appliances, sound system. We run 110v power near all team members’ tents.
- AerialKnotics’ entire camp infrastructure (solar/water/kitchen/bathroom/shower/sanitation) was designed and built from scratch by the camp’s founders.
Additionally,
- We are a small high-impact working camp, a radically self-reliant team of up to twenty people. We are a full participation camp.
- Our standard camp fees are $500 USD. For long distance travelers we have potential solutions for tent, air mattress, sleeping bag, bike, and/or cooler.
- We are limited on RVs due to space, and no generators are run in this camp.
- We may have a few tickets to allocate, but each team member should assume responsibility for independently arranging ticket purchase.
