Come over to Minnesota for the Monstrous Jam and check out the scene and Fight or Flight Academy.  The weekend will be packed with amazingness starting with a parkour and freerunning competition Friday, jamming around the cities Saturday and Sunday and a delicious BBQ at a beach!  What more could you ask for?  People are welcome to sleep at the gym at a cost of $10 per person.  Everyone who stays at the gym or plays at the gym must have a wavier on file with the gym. The wavier can be found here: http://www.fightorflightacademy.com/files/waiver.pdf.  If you are under 18, a parent or guardian must sign it for you.  No wavier, no playing in the gym. Period.

Times are estimate and will most likely change, but it's a jam so who cares?

Competition
There will be a parkour and freerunning competition.  The parkour competition will be timed obstacle course throughout the gym, run 3 separate times.  First is forward through the obstacle course, second is reversed, and third is in any order the competitor chooses.  Based on the number of competitors, the highest time runs will be eliminated.  The freerunning competition will be a 1 minute freestyle run though the gym.  Judging will be based on execution, creativity, difficulty and flow.  Cash prizes will be awarded to 1st 2nd and 3rd place finishers in both events.  $25 for one event $40 for both.
