Testimonials
"A great two days. Ethan keeps the class engaged and allows for the session to “look down a rabbit hole” (to use his own words) but keeps the course moving forward. Trying to cover material in two days, that really should be three to four is done masterfully and with a sense of freshness and excitement that reminds everyone why we are in the entertainment industry in the first place. We LOVE this stuff!!"

“As a venue manager and supervisor at a university student union/activities technical services operation this experience provided an invaluable exposure and comprehension of the terms, equipment components, and safety protocols of entertaining rigging.”

“I wanted to take this course because I work with so many different production companies, road shows, & venues; I wanted to standardize my knowledge from experience. This course did this for me, so I know in a situation what is right, what is wrong, & what is questionable. I don’t want to put myself in a dangerous situation due to lack of knowing & I now feel strongly that I can work in a safer environment, whether I intend to rig or not. So THANK you!”

“Great Class! I learned a lot. I really enjoyed the hands-on section on the last day. Ethan did a great Job with the content, especially the mathematics and calculations. I would strongly recommend this to others. Also, Ethan’s experience showed in the was he was able to answer our questions and applications.”

“I took Ethan’s seminar last month to use as renewal credit for my Theatre Rigging cert. During the session I realized I was way over due getting my Arena Rigging cert. I emailed Meredith right from the session to get registered. Ethan's seminar helped reinforce my rigging knowledge, as well as motivate me to finally take (and pass) the Arena Rigging exam. I would highly recommend anyone thinking about getting certified attend one of these Entertainment Rigging Sessions.”
