To couple a driving shaft of a machine to a driven shaft, a coupling assembly is mounted to the driving and driven shafts and includes a flexible coupling element. The flexible coupling element includes a plurality of first fasteners adapted to be connected to the driving shaft and a plurality of second fasteners adapted to be connected to the driven shaft. A plurality of fibers connects different ones of the first fasteners to different ones of the second fasteners so that the first fasteners applies force to the second fasteners to transmit torque.
