Arsclepius

The art of growing.

from ars (art) and clepius (growing)

Looking for something to do, people to do it with, and a place to play?

Arsclepius is where people find activities, connection, and play, and where the instructors, communities, and venues behind them run everything in one place.

Your growth follows you, trust is built on real verification, and profits are shared with the people doing the work.

Shibari, fitness, yoga, pilates, aerial, muay thai, scuba and more.

What you can do here

Skill ladders

Follow what you love

Pick the disciplines you practice, or the ones you love to watch. Each has its own skill ladder, from Tier 0 up.

Classes, courses and shows

Show up your way

Take a class, log a practice, finish a course or go to a show. What you do and what you watch are kept apart, and a teacher who saw you do a skill can sign it off.

Find a show, event or class

Your companion

Grow a companion

Your companion at its first stage, a seedling

Your companion starts as a Seedling, with a habitat in every discipline you follow. Practice makes a habitat thrive, and so do shows for someone who only watches. It fades when you stop.

For event hosts

Running an event? We make the work easier

Fill in one form to build the event page. Then ticket types and promo codes, a QR scanner on your phone, refunds inside the policy you choose, and payouts through Stripe. Any account can host.

How it works for event hosts

Coming soon: your companion, as your helper

We are teaching your companion to help. Ask it in your own words and it finds what you are looking for, or gets your next step ready. It never acts on its own: nothing is saved, booked or published until you check it and tap.

When you come to things

Ask what is on this weekend and it shows the events and classes by date, each with a door to its page. Ask it to log yesterday's practice and your log opens filled in, ready for you to save. It lists; it never ranks or recommends anyone.

When you host

Tell it about your next event and the event form opens filled in, for you to check, change and publish. Ask how refunds or check-in work and you get the app's own answer, with a door to the page.

Yours to turn on

The AI part is optional and for adult accounts. Without it, every one of these is still a button in the app: Explore, Log practice, Create on Events, and Help.

Not live yet. We will say so here when it is.

What else is here

  • Courses

    Online lessons with video, text and drills, built by instructors on the platform. Browse them without an account.

    Browse courses
  • Skill cards

    Your skills live on your profile, not inside any one class. When an instructor signs off a skill they have seen you do, the card carries their name.

    How it works for students
  • Practice sheets

    Drills with sets, reps, tempo and load, in four formats. An instructor builds a sheet for one student, and each logged drill lands on the matching skill card.

    How it works for instructors
  • Tickets and check-in

    Workshops, jams, classes and shows with tickets, Stripe payment and QR check-in. A paid ticket needs no account, except for an 18+ event.

    How it works for fans
  • Communities

    For a group, a studio or a gym: a member list, a group chat that stays with the group, and an events tab with a calendar view.

    How it works for communities
  • Messages

    Direct messages, and a group chat inside each experience you join. Message bodies are encrypted at rest on our servers.

  • Payments

    Single lessons, courses, session packs, subscriptions and event tickets, all paid through Stripe. Sellers set the prices, and there is one platform fee per order.

    How pay works
  • Shared profit

    After costs, what is left of the platform's fees is for the people and communities who keep running things here, not for whoever shows up once. You can share after eight active quarters, which is at least two years of steady activity. No quarter before October 1, 2028 pays, and after that a quarter pays only when the platform's fees are more than its costs.

    How the share works

Who it is for

Learning is one way in. Pick the one that sounds like you: each page says how it works and which tools you get.

What we do not do

No feed

There is no timeline to scroll and nothing you have to post. Come when there is something you want to see.

No hidden fee

Purchases carry a platform fee. When it is added on top it is its own line at checkout; when the host has absorbed it, the price you see is the whole price.

The rate is on the pay page

Nothing deleted for taking a break

Your cards and the tiers you reached stay. After about a month away, the level inside a tier drifts down a step a week, and climbs back once you practice again.

Safety

These crafts carry real risk, and we plan for when, not if. A verified card is one instructor's word about one skill, not a safety certificate. The Resources on consent, risk and repair are the standard we hold ourselves to. If something goes wrong, report an incident: one address, read by a person, answered within 3 days, and nothing about it is stored on the platform.
