Why Learn From Us?

Way of the Rope was founded in 2020 by Tim Shieff (a former professional Parkour athlete - 'World Freerunning Champion' and 'Ninja Warrior UK' Winner). A series of injuries led Tim down a journey of physical recovery and biomechanics exploration that serendipitously ended with discovering the work of the 'Nikola Tesla of Biomechanics' himself - David Weck.

After spending time learning from David directly in California before bringing it back to the UK and practising for hours everyday for months on end - with David's blessing 'Way of the Rope' was born - as a way to bring this truly unique, humble and yet life changing practice to more people worldwide.

Since then, Tim has developed his own approach to Rope Flow education - one that isn't solely focused on athleticism but developing a better relationship with your own body. This isn't about learning 100 different patterns or impressing others with skills but about learning how your own body moves and functions by using a simple low-tech tool to unlock the hi-tech nature of the human body.

We have taught 1000's of students in person and have over 10,000 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ reviews from real humans like you on our courses and Flow Ropes.

AMAZING rehab for my shoulder!!!

After a mountain bike crash left me with a severely impinged shoulder causing so much pain and discomfort for 6 months despite trying various excersises, this rope has given me back almost my full range of motion in a super short time. Starting 2 mins a day learning the basic moves I was soon doing 10 mins and now building things up and up. Just bought the bigger rope for the intermediate instructions as this is something I'm gonna be doing for possibly the rest if my life. Once you get the basics down and get into the flow the minutes breeze by. There is nothing better than enjoyable excersise. Thanks so much Tim.

Amazing biomechanic tool!

Been roping since the day I got it! It has improved my overall movement and especially my boxing skills! I´ve also lost bodyfat and gotten more mobility in my shoulders, and this is only from an average of 5 minutes a day.

So happy I bought into this.

Apart from the philosophy and the knowledge being so perfectly on point and balance, you and your blessed team have done a remarkable job of the cinematography and audio. Every video is a true delight to watch and learn from. This is the perfect work/play that us wee humans so need, to reactivate ... timeless, respect. Its like being a Child again :D
