Hi, I’m Fritz! (aka JuteJitsu)

I’m a San Francisco based rope artist, with several years of professional experience.

I’ve taught or performed in Los Angeles, New York, Boston, Tokyo and of course San Francisco

I train Kinbaku in Tokyo with Hajime Kinoko, and I’m a certified Ichinawa instructor.

Philosophy

For me, rope is a pathway to deep trust, beauty, and a rare type of platonic intimacy. My mission is to share authentic, meditative Japanese rope bondage in an approachable, inclusive way.

When training in Tokyo, I experienced a vibrant rope scene that provides participants and spectators with a meditative, soulful experience. These communities embrace the fun and beauty of human connection. I aim to bring this perspective home, and spread the joy of playful Japanese rope bondage to my community.

Services

If you would like to experience rope for yourself, I offer private sessions and photoshoots.

If you’d like to learn to tie, I offer private lessons, affordable group workshops, and onsite rope performances.
