Jeffrey William Priesmeyer is at Fight or Flight Academy. Yesterday at 10:24 PM · Edina, MN · Intermediate class increasing the distance of their drop to rolls. Grey deck is about 3ft, Blue box is 7ft and the wall is 9ft
Riley Jaspers Yesterday at 7:34 PM · Intermediate rolling class taking some shoulder rolls to concrete. Rolling on any hard surface will help you find out what you need to fix in a roll. If you roll on soft areas, you can't feel the boney parts digging into the ground, unlike concrete or other harder surfaces. This was a big improvement from many students!! Fight or Flight Academy
Tom Hendrickson is at Fight or Flight Academy. September 25 at 1:36 PM · Edina, MN · Morning PK fit working on shoulders and abs doing the dreaded ground dash. In open gym Cortney worked on her balance and conquered the 10 foot bar! The beginner PK class worked on Rule #1 in their backward rolls: don't hit your head!
Jon Anfinsen is at Fight or Flight Academy. September 24 at 12:13 AM · Edina, MN · Working on reaction drills from the sheathed position. Both elegance and flare came out in these creations. ⚔️: Turner Stang Tyler Evans Jay
Tom Hendrickson is at Fight or Flight Academy. September 23 at 3:50 PM · Edina, MN · PK Fit class working some shoulders, abs, and wrists with a few fun (and intense) floor exercises. The beginner rolling class learning that mats aren't always the best place to train. If you only train on mats you won't learn whether or not your technique is good, especially for falling, landing, and rolling. Later on in open gym I recruited our salesman extraordinaire and resident breakdancing expert Cortez Lamont Stanley to teach us a few things to add to our flow.
Riley Jaspers September 22 at 10:15 PM · Week 4 front flips! Started using the wall for inward fronts and getting better at Webster's for week 5 of front flips. Fight or Flight Academy
Jeffrey William Priesmeyer is at Fight or Flight Academy. 10 hrs · Edina, MN · Doing some Kong to rolls in intermediate last week! Broke it down working on getting into a handstand for our Kong and then working the bait roll. It’s difficult because instead of landing on your feet first you have to absorb with your arms while controlling your body to roll. Difficult but fun!
Tom Hendrickson is at Fight or Flight Academy. 5 hrs · Edina, MN · Intermediate tumbling class and flips class both ended up working on front handsprings this week! Really trying to focus on the kick for power as a progression into one footed or Webster flips! 🦵🤸‍♂️
Riley Jaspers 23 hrs · Intermediate bars conditioning!!! All were "go until you can't" 1. Pull ups/inverted rows- lots of pulling in bars needed, this helps a lot. 2. Leg lifts- ab muscles for days 3. Hang on a bar- just hang, it hurts. Fight or Flight Academy
Level Up!!!! Congrats to Mikhail Krauchanka on his ascension into Level 3!
Tom Hendrickson is at Fight or Flight Academy. Yesterday at 9:14 AM · Edina, MN · Got to fill in and coach one of my favorite classes at Fight or Flight, mobility! The leg stretching you see is called PNF or proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation stretching. For the stretch we did in our class you bring your leg up to a stretch, hold for a bit, push hard against the stretch, then have your partner raise your leg up further and repeat. It's intense but extremely effective!
Riley Jaspers October 12 at 7:09 PM · Advanced tumbling outside! Coach Veronica Perevertaylo decided to join and did some round off back tucks. Looks pretty cool with the sunset! Fight or Flight Academy
Tom Hendrickson is at Fight or Flight Academy. 6 hrs · Edina, MN · Intermediate landings class! Really fun, productive class playing Eli's (Elija Kneringer) precision game. Stick the landing, move the beam forward, miss it, move it back. Repeat until you have it close enough to get to the target! Later in the "less fun but great training" category the students practiced their slap out landings onto concrete in their socks, the attempt you're seeing is each person's 25th rep! Keeping your technique consistent as you fatigue is important!
Riley Jaspers October 27 at 10:16 PM · Beginner front flips working on 2 footed takeoff. I also had the pleasure of working with Anne, one of our blind students, and ended up getting forward rolls, straddle rolls, and even dive rolls with her arms all the way up! And of course we can't forget Gary's straddle flips. Fight or Flight Academy
Riley Jaspers October 27 at 2:08 PM · Beginner back flips! Worked a lot on getting out legs to shoulders to make the backflip happen. On the big box, same concept, but now doing the second part of the flip. Fight or Flight Academy
Jeffrey William Priesmeyer is at Fight or Flight Academy. October 27 at 11:53 AM · Edina, MN · Beginner PK working dynos, wall spins, and step up hand plant wall gainers.
Tom Hendrickson is at Fight or Flight Academy. October 27 at 10:52 AM · Edina, MN · Sunday clips of beginner class working on the step-up handplant wall gainer, or as we call it, the SUHPWG! Intermediate class threw some wall inward flips which are tricky when you're first learning them, rotating your head towards the wall and corner is intimidating but everyone did great. After Sunday classes the coaches and members of our superhuman program got to go try cryotherapy at US Cryotherapy in Roseville. Coach Veronica showed us all up by staying in for an extra minute past the 2.5 the rest of us did. 🥶🥶🥶
Riley Jaspers October 26 at 10:20 PM · Youth level 2&3 working on wall spins. Both were very close, but not quite this time. Either way, a good effort! Fight or Flight Academy

Tom Hendrickson is at Fight or Flight Academy. November 18 at 10:17 AM · Edina, MN · Intermediate rolling class working vault failures and rolling up onto a thinner obstacle, which requires commitment and proper technique to execute properly. A wild Riley appeared to disrupt class but was promptly dealt with by Isaac!
Veronica Perevertaylo is at Fight or Flight Academy. 8 hrs · Edina, MN · And here is beginner flips working on their macacos! Everybody was looking real smoov 😎 Music creds : Borderline // Tame Impala
Riley Jaspers 9 hrs · Different double vault variations we worked on in intermediate vaulting class today. Kong to swivel, speed to reverse, and double kongs were some examples in the video. Fight or Flight Academy
Jeffrey William Priesmeyer is at Fight or Flight Academy. 20 hrs · Edina, MN · Sunday intermediate working on balancing and walking across the 10ft bar. I added an extra challenge to try walking backwards. The trick to walking backwards on a beam or bar is to guide your foot along the side so you know where the bar is at all times as you take a step.
Tom Hendrickson is at Fight or Flight Academy. 22 hrs · Edina, MN · Beginner landings class getting through the "chores" of learning to fall on concrete before running through a course designed to work on everything else we work on in class!
Riley Jaspers February 9 at 5:58 PM · Intermediate vaulting class! We worked anti Kongs and sliding vaults. Also enjoy Alex Quinn doing whatever he was doing in the beginning. Fight or Flight Academy
Tom Hendrickson is at Fight or Flight Academy. February 9 at 10:49 AM · Edina, MN · Backflips class working on their tucks! Getting enough power to tuck themselves into a roll! All of that work on the ground really builds up the static with the dry, cold weather so I couldn't resist having them form a chain and discharge onto the stairs. The camera didn't pick it up but there was definitely a nice spark that the entire 4 person chain felt 😅⚡️.
