Dope Ropes Meet-up - Feb 25!

We kicked off our first 2025 meet-up this February. We love running jump rope events, and have hosted a number of outdoor meet-ups in the spring and summer. We were keen to get started a little earlier this year, and with winter still in full swing we chose to venture indoors, to Gymbox in Farringdon - a mega venue with an incredible set-up. After descending several flights of stairs and with the sound of the gym floor and music booming we were in!!

Our meet-ups are always pretty casual and we focus on creating opportunities for people from all locations (from Scotland to France and beyond) to get together and jump. After lots of ‘hello’s’ people soon started getting stuck in - learning new moves and getting to grips with the group routine. Double dutch was once again a big hit! For others, it was also just an opportunity to escape and do their own thing, but with the company of other jumpers around them. 

Around an hour or so after kicking off, we came together to film the group routine. This is always a bit chaotic, and with a new space to work with there were plenty of thoughts around how we could squeeze everyone in and make sure people had enough room to work with! Once we got there though, there was no stopping us and after a few attempts we finally got our take (which we celebrated of course!). 

It was then time to get out the merch and prizes for our rope toss competition - a fave feature at all our events! T’shirts and new ropes were won, a group photo was taken and with that the meet-up came to an end and moved locations to a bar, where food and drinks were very much enjoyed. 

We can’t wait for our next meet-up, and will be taking it back to our usual spot in Hyde Park this Summer. To keep updated with all our events make sure you join our meet-up group.

Thanks to Gymbox for hosting us!
