the correct techniques required to perform these amazing movements.

This initial workshop covers a number of variables.  There is a section tailored towards the fitness enthusiast looking to improve technique and gain knowledge of progressions to help with bodyweight strength and conditioning workouts.  This leads in to ring work, followed by more typical gymnastic skill work including back/front tucks and flips and then finally in to urban gymnastics/parkour movements.  This final section will lead you up to an open gym session at the only urban gymnastics venue in the country that boasts over 1200 members for this section alone.
