Latest Ru-Slack news
The future's bright!
2020 is well and truely upon us so we thought it was about time for a little update from us! We must say, 2019 was a pretty epic year here for Ru-Slack with a whole range of differing delights happening though-out!
We are super stoked to announce that Ru-Slack is the International Slackline Associations first ever Education Partner and currently the only one in the world! You can see why we say the UK’s leading, maybe we should change that to the Worlds leading as nobody else can claim to have introduced so many people to the world of slacklining!
We introduced another 10,000+ people to the wonderful world of slacklining through a range of different activities, from our indoor balance classes, to featuring at a whole bunch of marvellous festivals and also through our brand new Waterlining & Sea Safety sessions. A few members of the team even managed to escape and show their faces at a couple of events across the globe, from the Turkish Highline Carnival to Bern City Slack and some of the UK’s highline gatherings chucked in there too! And not forgetting our work with Youth in Action, Switzerland and regular education board meetings with the ISA, it really has been a jam packed year!
Adding to our ever-growing services list, this coming year we're excited to say that we will be bringing you a few new Ru-Slack additions! Our Waterlining and Sea Safety sessions - the perfect exciting and adrenaline filled way of teaching people about water and sea safety, secondly, a whole host of wonderful circus activities & performance from our sister company Cirque Du Bahe but the real big news is that we will soon be starting to deliver the ISA's instructor certificate, a newly constructed qualification ensuring that instructors across the world meet the correct standards.
We're continuing to work hard behind the scenes on our little secret number but hold tight, all will be revealed soon! In the meantime, keep checking back in with us to see what other delights we have in store for you and have a little peruse of our website as we are sure you will find lots of handy information!
See you at an upcoming event soon!
Regards,
The Ru-Slack team

Institute of Outdoor Learning
"Thanks Ru-Slack for giving up your time to provide practitioners with a taste of slacklining at our 2017 South West IOL regional conference. One participant said ‘Slacklining was brilliant, really frustratingly addictive and fun!’"
Events Management
“I've had loads of positive responses about what you guys did this year at the festival (Blissfields) so I really want to thank you for this and I would love to have you back in 2018 and make it a bigger more prominent thing”
A National Governing Body
"I think that Slacklining is very exciting and an up-and-coming activity. I think the Outdoor educators need to wake up and get these ‘new’ activities into their programmes as soon as possible".
Schools
"The sport of slacklining is breath taking. I am awestruck by so many of the different learning aspects the children have been able to capture."
Outreach
"I used to get in trouble and run away from the police, now Ru-Slack has taught me how to slackline I just show them my slackline tricks."
Fitness
"I found slacklining really helped me improve my fitness levels, I didn't enjoy the gym and found this to be the perfect substitute."
