Calisthenics Club

Our main goal is to provide a foundation of what calisthenics is and allow individuals to exercise and gain strength primarily using their bodyweight. This includes static and dynamic exercise such as multiple variations of pull ups, pushups, dips, abs exercise and yes – legs too. “Basically full body!” End goals may be simple as learning a pull up, being able to do 10 push ups, or doing defying gravity moves for which calisthenics is famous: muscles-up, pistol squats, handstands, front lever, back fever, human flag, and the infamous planche.
