In Spring 2019, this class will be offered for children ages 5-12 with differing abilities or special needs. The focus will be on growth and development in the following areas: gross motor coordination, sensory processing, language concepts, social skills, and being a kid while having fun!
Quincy is ready for Parkour! Our Parkour demo earlier this month was great and Gem City will be offering more Parkour activities! Gem City’s certified Parkour instructor, David Boden-Shackleton, describes Parkour as using obstacles as opportunity.
Gem City will hold its annual Halloween themed Pizza Fun Night on Friday, October 26 from 6:30-9:30 pm. This Pizza Fun Night is special because it’s when our annual costume contest will happen! The costume contest will happen first, so bring a change of clothes if you can’t play comfortably in your costume!
The event costs only $13 for members and $16 for non-members. Any child age 4 or older is welcome! Kids get to play games, experience open gym time, eat pizza, drink soda, and have fun with their friends!
The gym will be closed from September 1 to 4 for Labor Day. Classes resume on September 5.

Parkour is described as using obstacles as opportunity. You’ve probably seen people doing parkour as they jump from obstacle to obstacle and vault their bodies over whatever obstacle is in their path. (Check out the video below to see what we’re talking about.)
