Aseptic Technique for the Suspension Practitioner

Bridget Hall

A comprehensive look at aseptic technique for all roles within a body suspension. This class will discuss what aseptic technique is, how it protects practitioners and suspendees, and the recommended procedures for maintaining hygiene and preventing blood borne infections from start to finish.

About Bridget Hall

Bridget Hall is a professional body piercer and suspension practitioner from Indiana, currently based in Ohio. She has been piercing for over 5 years and has been involved in the suspension community since 2022. Bridget has participated in educational piercing and/or suspension events in four countries.

Skin, Psyche, and the Sacred Pull

Lisa B. and Julia Church

Skin, Psyche, and the Sacred Pull is a deep dive into the psychological, somatic, and neurobiological layers of hook suspension, exploring how vulnerability, community, and the nervous system come together to create profound transformation. Attendees will learn how psychological concepts appear in suspension spaces, why co-regulation is essential for safety and connection, and how the brain’s own mechanisms and shape the emotional and physical experience of going up. This class blends science with soul and offers a rich, grounded framework for understanding how suspension changes us from the inside out.

About Lisa B. and Julia Church

Lisa B. began her suspension journey in 2012 and started facilitating in 2013. Over the years, she has developed strong connections within the international suspension community and has been a consistent advocate for accessibility, safety, and inclusivity. Her contributions have supported the growth of a more informed and welcoming environment for both new and experienced participants. She currently serves as an advisor for State of Bliss, where she provides practical guidance on media, styling, and people management. Lisa approaches her work with clarity, honesty, and a focus on collaboration, helping support both the creative and operational needs of the team. She remains actively involved in efforts to nurture and sustain the suspension community in the UK.

Julia Church comes from a colorful background in biochemistry and spent several years working in environmental, pharmaceutical, and genetic research industries. She ultimately ended up in natural medicine and quality control after realizing she was unwilling to sell her soul to a pharmaceutical company. Her first experience with suspension was facilitated by Lisa in 2015, prior to a marathon of surgeries that took six years to complete. A decade later, she has returned to suspension in search of community, exploration, and communion with the divine self. Above all else, she is passionate about the things that science cannot explain.

Accommodation

There is no accommodation included in the cost of registration. Upon registration, you will be added to a Facebook group where you can coordinate shared accommodations with other attendees. There are several hotels within a mile and many listings on Airbnb near the venue.

Food & Drink

Snacks and light refreshments (all vegetarian, mostly vegan) will be available daily during the event. There are a few restaurants within walking distance, as well as many food delivery options available.

Hooks

We will provide hooks and shackles for most suspensions. Please note that the hooks provided have been used before and have been processed and sterilized in accordance with the City and County of Denver Rules and Regulations for Body Art Establishments.

Some new hooks will be available for purchase at the event but in order to use them there, sterilization must be arranged beforehand. If you have any concerns about previously used hooks or want to arrange to purchase hooks for your suspension at the event, please contact us.

If you bring your own hooks to use at the event, please ensure they are in sterile packages which have not been compromised.

Most suspensions will be accommodated at the event, but if you think your suspension may require special attention, involve multiple practitioners, use an unusually high number of hooks, or have additional risks for any reason, please contact us to discuss what’s possible.

COVID Policy

For everyone’s wellbeing during the 2026 Denver Suscon, we encourage attendees to take precautions while traveling, including wearing masks, maintaining distance from others when possible, and using hand sanitizer regularly. Upon arrival, anyone experiencing COVID symptoms should notify the organizer or volunteers, who will provide rapid tests as needed.

While we aim to create a comfortable environment for all, participants displaying COVID symptoms may be asked to wear a mask during the event. Hand sanitizer will be widely available throughout the event, but participants are also encouraged to bring hand sanitizer for personal use outside the event.
