In the past 2 years we held several meet-ups. The purpose of a meet-up is always first and foremost to connect with women who are interested in calisthenics. To meet up with like minded women is oftentimes very much needed and appreciated in a world where calisthenics is mostly dominated by men.
It can really be more motivating to see other women performing calisthenics. What we've noticed from at these meet-ups is that the women who join will support, inspire and motivate each other. Women who join the meet-ups unlock new skills and strength they never seen befor in themselves. All because they feel seen, supported, driven and strengthened by the presence and literal support and enthousiasm of other women.
PAST MEET-UPS

Hengelo
We got invited by Billy from Freesthenics Gym in Hengelo. We did a really fun calisthenics training first and after we did a lot of freestyle. Billy gave us a workshop in freestyle dynamics, which is absolutely ideal, because the gym has a foam pit! We could try all kinds of new and scary tricks in a safe environment.
Eindhoven
The Urban Sportspark in Eindhoven has got the largest calisthenics park in the Netherlands, and maybe also Europe, that I know of. The first official and also the biggest meet-up so far has been held here. 17 ladies were present that day! Which felt like an absolute dream.
Purmerend
We got invited to Obstacle Gym Purmerend by Melanie Driessen who works there. It was a day full different kind of sports practice. A lot of girls tried weighted dips for the first time. We could run up a big wall like a ninja warrior and Melanie even gave a freestyle workshop!
Nijmegen
We held several meet-ups in Nijmegen at different locations already. For example in Goffertpark (outdoor) and in Big Gym (indoor calisthenics park).
Amsterdam
In Amsterdam there are multiple calisthenics park locations. With small groups of women we've been to multiple of these locations.
