Activities could include: 

Calisthenics – If you’ve ever seen crazy pull-up tricks or muscle-ups on TikTok, you know calisthenics is all about raw strength and skill. No gym needed, just you vs. gravity. 

Ultimate Frisbee – Fast, competitive and way more intense than just tossing a frisbee in the park – Ultimate is big in unis and schools for a reason. 

Archery – Your chance to feel like Legolas or Katniss and see how it feels to hit the bullseye. Step up, take aim and let the arrows fly.
