Muscle Beach Venice

The calisthenics area looks like a playground in a giant sandbox, with parallel bars, Olympic rings, climbing ropes, speed bags for boxing, and pull-up bars. The city’s best athletes show off some serious moves here. But there are also plenty of regular people just trying to figure out how to climb the ropes. Look out for the guys from Raw Movement (see what they look like on their Instagram). They have meetups here. They’re some of the best calisthenics athletes from around Los Angeles, and they put on a real show.
