Recess! Redux

January 31, 2010

This Saturday’s Recess! was a blast and a half. The Death Track Dolls kicked major butt in a tough circuit workout, then still had enough gas in the tank for a vicious plank-off! The 11:30 class brought us The Do. Crew, and after conquering the climbing wall and stairs they performed admirably in the team challenge… and finally, points were awarded for style as they leaped into the Foam Pit of Doom!

Next Saturday will find us goofing around and getting real strong in the process… come check us out, won’t you? Recess! at The Monkey Vault, 213 Geary Avenue happens on Saturday at 10:30am and 11:30am. Can’t come at that time but have a group you want to rile up? Email me at marthadonkey at gmail dot com.

Recess! Update

January 14, 2010

Last Saturday’s Recess class was a smashing success… I’ve been hearing reports that people were feeling a little achy the next day(s), and then got a message from one participant that now her legs feel so strong she could kick down a wall! That’s what I’m talkin’ about.

This Saturday will have a slightly different schedule: Two classes! TWO! You can get your Recess on twice in a row if you feel like it! Once at 10:30, and again for double the fun at 11:30. Bring your friends, bring your kids, bring your dog (wait, don’t bring your dog)!

Smack talk is encouraged, so start jotting your schoolyard disses down now.

Parkour

January 4, 2010

The amazing gym where we’ll be goofing off at Recess is called The Monkey Vault. The owner, Dan, seems like a very nice guy. Until, that is, he makes you run up a wall. Or go up and down a flight of stairs in ways you’ve never thought of. I left our incredibly fun Parkour 101 session with the certain knowledge of two things:

  1. I am terrible at Parkour. But I really want to try it again.
  2. I will be very, very sore tomorrow.
