Place des Cordes

Founded in 2013, La Place des Cordes started as a simple monthly jam in Paris. After a year, it became a place devoted full-time to the practice of ropes. La Place des Cordes imparts workshops, classes and performance evenings with the best rope practitioners in the world. It is a place to practice rope and a place of personal development.

La Place des Cordes was opened during 4 years and became a legendary studio. Finally, it closed its door in June 2018, after the community quarreled and the place became finaically endangered. This lead to a change in the purpose and focus of the company. Now, their business is the import and export of ropes and accessories. Needless to say, they offers a great variety in their catalogue.
