Spring Schedule!

The class schedules have now been updated for the spring season! There are now more class options than before with a few scheduled on the weekdays. The Open Gym sessions have been moved up to an earlier time in the afternoon/evenings on the weekends, and we've added an Open Gym on Wednesday nights as well.

With the new schedule comes some new policies:

• You can sign up for a class up until 5 hours before the time it is scheduled to start. If there are no students signed up for a class by this time, the class will not meet that day. If for some reason you cannot sign up through the website, please send an email to contact(at)parkourways.com to let us know you'd like to reserve a spot and which class you'd like to sign up for.
• Open Gym sessions will be canceled if no participants have shown up after one hour from the time the session was scheduled to begin. If you are running late for an Open Gym session, please call ahead to ask if the session is still running!

We hope to see you all at the gym! Follow this link to sign up and view more info: http://www.ParkourWays.com/classes

Slim Jim Video

Last Wednesday we got to spend some time with Scott. He's the Sultan of Snap, the king of the Slim Jim community! We got to tell him what parkour is about and show him a few things. It was a lot of fun, check it out!

Grant Lechner Photoshoot

A good friend Grant Lechner came out to the gym to shoot some photos for a school project he's working on. Here's a few shots from the shoot, they turned out great! There should be more to come!

Parkour For Schools!

Check it out students, parents and faculty! Parkour Ways is looking to introduce parkour to school students in the Chicago and Northwest Indiana areas! Parkour is an extraordinary, exciting way to get students physically active and applying their mind in new ways, discovering their limits and simultaneously pushing them... safely! We'll work with you to set up a special event for your school. We can provide brief introductions to parkour for the students and staff including an explanation of this art of movement, demonstrations of techniques, and even get the participants started with some of the basic movements. Please see this page for more information:
