Abstract In Motion

Abstract In Motion teaches parkour, the art of getting over, under and around obstacles using only your body, built on running, jumping and climbing. Owner and head instructor Eric Corrales, known as Gorillaman, leads the classes, which are open to anyone ages 6 and up at every skill level. Sessions are kept small so each student gets real coaching and feedback.

Most classes meet outdoors in Bend's parks, trails and open spaces, using a custom mobile playground that travels to every session. A first class is $20 for newcomers, drop-in classes are $30, and punch passes bring the per-class rate down. Private lessons, group sessions for friends or homeschool groups, and gym workshops are also available, with private bookings arranged directly with Eric. The schedule changes monthly, so check the calendar and text ahead to confirm your spot.
