Greetings! What a great start to the year! We have had so many people take advantage of our No Registration Fee deal in January, that we are going to extend the deal through February for those who sign up for a 12 Month Membership. We are already seeing some fruition from those that started New Year's Resolutions. Don't give up! If you have been going strong but don't have accountability yet, now is the time. Find a friend to meet you at the gym. Be the friend that you would want them to be for you, that's the only way it's going to work.
Speaking of friends, many of you will recognize our new manager, my sister Megan. She will be taking the reins at Revolution Parkour Beaverton while Whit & I (Matt) set our eyes on starting a gym in East Portland. I hope this excites you as much as it does us! We will need a lot of help when the time comes. For updates visit the Revolution Freerunning facebook page!
There has been a little confusion as to why a new facility would be called "Revolution Freerunning". The new gym will feature classes in both Parkour and Freerunning but will have equipment more conducive to Freerunning (think: foam pit, spring floor, etc.) The two gyms will remain separate entities for awhile... but down the road they may become the same company.
Thank you to everyone who has helped us form this dream so far! We can't wait to install the first parkube, climb the first wall, and watch our students grow to new levels!
On a side note: If every family (not person) that has ever visited Revolution Parkour donated $36.58 today we could have a gym in East Portland by May. I'm a numbers guy, sorry. We will be featured on Indiegogo.com on Wednesday, February 13th, 2013 starting at 10:00am. You'll have the chance to donate to the cause and get a little something back for your contribution. We appreciate your support!
I know I wrote a lot more this month, but he biggest take away this month is personal growth through finding accountability.

ZET: Zombie Evasion Training
Saturday, February 23rd from 4-6pm
| |
ZET is a team of Zombie Apocalypse Parkour professionals lead by Jesse Ferguson of Legacy Parkour & Freerunning.
According to the ZET website:
Why Use Parkour? Maybe you need to get supplies back to base. Maybe you don't have a weapon. Or maybe there are just too many of them. There are a number of reasons you might run away from zombies rather than fighting them. We'll provide you with the parkour techniques most effective when evading zombies, along with modifications to execute them while carrying an object.
WARNING: Not for the faint of heart. Ages 13 and Up. $10 to pre-register* or $15 at the door.
*Pre-registration ends Saturday, February 16th.
