Saturday, January 17 & Sunday, January 18, 2026
OBJX Studio, Toronto
We’re starting 2026 with a weekend-long suspension event co-hosted by the Ontario Suspension Collective and BME!
Yep! BME will be onsite to document and archive the weekend! At the Suscon earlier this year, we had the opportunity to dream up big ideas with the BME crew about ways the OSC and BME could collaborate, and we're pumped that 8 months later, we're doing just that!
We’re also really excited to be back in Toronto. It’s been over a year and a half since we hosted a suspension event in Toronto, but we’ve finally found a place to call home at OBJX Studio! OBJX will be an epic space to work out of — 20’ vertical clearance from floor to beams, floor to ceiling windows — so tons of natural light — and all the room we could ever need to bring your suspension to life!
This gathering also marks a shift for us: the OSC is moving toward more two-day events as demand continues to grow and the community keeps showing up.
The suspension community and the enthusiasm surrounding it continue to grow in Southern Ontario, and we’re here for it!

SUSPENDING AT THE SNOW & STEEL: WINTER SUSPENSION GATHERING
Thank you for registering for to suspend at the OSC Winter Suspension Gathering!
THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND: To ensure the best experience, please stay hydrated, well-nourished, and rested before your suspension. Feeling hungry, tired, or run down can negatively impact your experience.
ENHANCING YOUR EXPERIENCE: We encourage you to bring music with you for your suspension — we find it can help amplify the experience. We have access to a fairly loud speaker that you can connect to with your phone. We also encourage you to bring a support person with you; having someone you trust with you can help reduce anxiety that you might have before suspending.
We ask that you arrive at least 30 - 45 minutes before your scheduled time so we can start promptly, and we ask for some flexibility, as the schedule throughout the day is subject to some slight changes. -
After you pay your deposit, you will receive an email that confirms the details of your suspension — the type of suspension, the time of your suspension and details about the venue. Each suspension is scheduled for around 1.5 hours.
We have limited time in the studio, so we sometimes must adhere to this schedule. -
If you're planning to do a suspension with 10 + hooks and more intricate rigging, please include the details of that in the Additional Comments section at the bottom of the Registration form. We may need to adjust the schedule, or we may need to suggest other arrangements, such as a private suspension.

If you would prefer a private suspension, we can provide that experience; however, it would not happen during this event. It would happen at a later date. Please email us at ontario.suspensions@gmail.com to inquire about private suspension experiences. -
