Private Classes

Groups can train their members and employees with our private classes in rigging and rigging safety. Courses are similar to our intensive arena-style Rigging Seminars, but are tailored to the specific needs of each group. Courses can be 3, 4 or 5 days. All classes are taught by Harry Donovan, the most experienced arena rigging instructor in North America.

Hands-on training is part of every private class. It is normally done on the ground, but can include work at height if there is a suitable venue.

To discuss private classes for your group, contact Harry Donovan at 206-283-4419 or riggingseminars@mac.com.
