Meet Ups & Workshops
Calisthenics Vancouver is dedicated to the growth of calisthenics across the province of British Columbia. We work to provide free & affordable environments for our athletes to learn in.
Meet Ups
Meet ups are a free event hosted by Calisthenics Vancouver. While meet ups are not coached, many coaches and high level athletes attend who are always keen to give tips to those willing to learn. There is also no minimum athletic requirement to join.
Meet ups are all about the vibes! Everyone has something to learn, and everyone has something to give - even if it's just cheering someone on while they try something new. It's a great environment to gain inspiration and connect with those who share the same mindsets and passions.
Meet ups are announced as one off events and usually take place once every 4-8 weeks. The less frequent nature encourages athletes to come from all over, which increases our size and network (and of course, the vibes that come with it). More frequent meet ups are typically found in local communities.
In the summer we train outdoors at Kits Beach in Vancouver as well as Ambleside Park in West Vancouver. In the winter we train indoors at gyms such as Calibar Fitness in Richmond, BC. While the meet ups themselves are free to attend, drop in fees to the gym do apply when training indoors.
Workshops
Workshops are coached intensives focusing on a specific skill or small sets of skills (for example beginner handstands, or intro dynamic skills). They are one off events that are planned by coaches and can take place in a single prolonged session, training weekends, or 4-6 week courses. You will be learning with a small group of athletes at a similar level with the same goals.
​
These are paid events to cover the cost of gym/studio space, as well as the coach's expertise and time taken to teach and provide individual feedback to those attending. Workshops are typically fairly affordable as the overall cost is split amongst the number of expected attendees.
