BME: Body Modification Ezine

A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

High Five

I’m a little surprised by the email I just got. Considering I’m sitting in a hotel on Maui and Jasn is apparently here working out of Pacific Roots. I’ll have to investigate further! Unless I’m confused, Jasn has been all around the US, Canada and now out here on the lovely island of Maui!

    Jasn’s a great guy! I lived on maui for 8 years and have gotten pierced by him. He’s also done a few of my friends’ tattoos 🙂
