Athletic Lab Gymnastics August Workshop

Athletic Lab is excited to announce their third monthly Gymnastics Skills Workshop. The workshop is open to both members and the general public. Taking place on Sunday, August 2nd from 10:00–11:00 AM, this session is designed to build foundational strength, control, and confidence in key gymnastics movements that transfer directly to athletic performance. Led by Athletic Lab's Renee Perkins, the workshop will allow attendees to continue developing gymnastics skills through hand balancing, muscle-up progressions, body positioning, and gymnastics-specific conditioning. This workshop will emphasize scapular control, hip mobility, and body awareness. Gymnastics-based training integrates multiple muscle groups into coordinated movement, rather than isolating muscles. Using bodyweight movements, you'll improve coordination and control, helping you build a stronger foundation that transfers to the weight room and supports progression toward more advanced gymnastics skills. Open to all skill levels, with modifications and progressions provided throughout the workshop. The session begins with a structured general warm-up focusing on wrist, scapular, hip, and ankle preparation, followed by progressive skill development and strength work in each area. This workshop is ideal for athletes and fitness enthusiasts looking to improve upper body strength, coordination, and body control in a structured, coach-led environment. No prior gymnastics experience is required. Cost: $5 for Athletic Lab members $20 for non-members Spots are limited, so be sure to reserve your place early.
