RocPK’s 2 Year Anniversary

For those of you who remember, RocPK was a completely different place when we opened almost exactly two years ago. We had only a couple boxes, maybe 800 sqft of rubber flooring, some equipment, and no real admin system. We’ve learned a lot in the last two years and I’m extremely proud of where this community has gone.

From the recent numbers, RocPK serves over 100 families and members. Just last month, our old monthly visits record of 406 got broken by over 50 – totaling to 462 visits in March! We’ve expanded our classes, built new and updated our old equipment, and are in the process of continuing the build out to further create the most unique gym in Rochester and Western New York!

None of this would have been possible with out the strong community members that we have. It is you and your presence that makes this place so great. RocPK is a community and those who patron it are not customers, but friends. Everyone should feel like RocPK is their own.

This month we will be making it even easier to join the community. Firstly, all first time drop-in classes are free – not just the free first timers class on Sundays, but any class that a new person joins, is free. Second, any new membership is half-off this month. That means new people, current students who wish to upgrade from class cards to their first membership, or a basic member who would like to upgrade to an unlimited membership. 

You may redeem these promotions on our MindBody site using these codes:

  • 2yeardropin – Free first drop-in class
  • 2yearhalfoff – half off any new membership purchase

In addition, Saturday the 13th we will be hosting a gathering at RocPK complete with a grill and food for the usual community jam. Registration for this event is up on the MindBody site and is free. Food will be $5 per plate.

Thanks for all the support these past few years. Here’s to many, many more!

Sincerely,

Charles Moreland
Executive Director

RocPK’s Spring Gorilla Gauntlet 2013

Like ninja warrior? Then you’ll love RocPK’s Gorilla Gauntlet!

This Saturday, we’ll be setting up the gym to run three unique obstacle courses that will challenge your speed, endurance, strength, and determination. We run several of these a year and this will be the first one for the 2013 year! There’s a bunch of new stuff in the gym and we’re excited to see what we set up.

This event is FREE to watch. Participants must be 16+ and must register on the MindBody site before Saturday. Cost is $10.

Check out this old video from a competition we ran over a year ago! (I can’t believe the gym used to look like that…)


See you there!

UPDATE – Barbarian Workshop Postponed

UPDATE – Unfortunately, due to some unforeseen circumstances (and the barbarians getting a baller workshop gig in Moscow), we’ll be postponing the workshop until January 2013. Information and registration will open up again in late December. 

Mark your calendars – The elite bodyweight strength group from NYC, the Bar-barians, will be coming to teach two unique workshops at the Rochester Parkour gym on October 27th.

The Bar-barians are a team of elite bodyweight specialists, founded on the goal of achieving physical perfection while providing the ability to motivate, inspire, train and treat our members and guests with respect and professionalism. Bar-barians was founded in 2004, in Brooklyn, New York.

These workshops will be beneficial to anyone looking to progress their bodyweight strength abilities – either just starting out or working on advanced level techniques.

The first workshop runs from 2-3:30pm with the second running from 4:30-6pm. Each workshop is $55 or $90 to attend both.

Both workshops are limited to 25 participants so reserve your slot early. Head over to our registration site to sign up.

Date: Friday 13th
Time: 8-11pm
Cost: $5 suggested donation

Join RocPK for another Movie Night projected on the big screen! It’s Friday the 13th so it’s only fitting we host in honor of the bails we’ve all experienced.

Come watch the greatest of the greats slip up and find themselves unbalanced and in the moment – we’ll also be watching the new documentary “People In Motion“!

Afterwards, we’ll be hosting a small community workshop on break falls and bail safety techniques to make sure you know what to do when the moment strikes. Refreshments will be provided.

See you there!
