Past Events
A look at previous workshops, competitions, and community events at the gym.
Game Night
Participants joined us for two hours of movement games, including Nerf missions where they dodged, dashed, and strategized, along with a Parkour skills challenge.
The champion won a Nerf Rival blaster, valued at $50.
Students who brought a friend new to the gym were entered to win a private group lesson valued at $170.
Backflip Workshop
This was our final workshop of the school year. Students joined for their first experience with backflips, continued recent progress, or worked toward mastering advanced variations.
We kept this event intentionally small with no more than 6 students per coach, allowing for hands on coaching, detailed feedback, and individualized progressions throughout the session.
- Students learned the fundamentals to safely work toward a backflip
- Students built height, control, and confidence in the movement
- Advanced students progressed into backfulls, swing gainers, and wallflips, including bails for safe practice and confidence building
Our goal was for every student to leave feeling proud of what they accomplished. Many landed their first backflip or a new variation, while others made clear, meaningful progress with the technique and confidence to continue.
USPK Qualifier
We’re stoked to have hosted our second USPK qualifier, representing the Mountain West Division which contains Colorado, Wyoming, Utah, New Mexico, Nevada, and Texas.
