Students will learn positive kinetic motor patterns to boost their athleticism for their current and future endeavors in any sport. Especially Stability, Agility, Flexibility, and Coordination.

Coach Eurico has over 10 years of experience coaching children through various academic and athletic endeavors, from brick-and-mortar classrooms, to gyms, and even camp counselor roles. Coach Eurico led and managed a brick & mortar kids parkour program at Urban Youth Park for 3 years in Southern California before joining Outschool during COVID. Besides coaching, Eurico has experience performing stunts on film and to live audiences. He is known for his work with the touring arena stunt spectacular Marvel Universe LIVE by FELD Entertainment, which toured across the USA and Europe, where he portrayed Spiderman, Wolverine, and Chitauri. He has also amassed a large following on Instagram and Tik Tok. Coach Eurico started Spider Martial Arts to bring representation to martial artists and superheroes of color. It’s been a blessing and inspiration to see what kids have achieved in this class to breakdown superhero moves from the same screens they watch these superheroes on. If you have any suggestions about superheroes to spotlight in class or questions about training please let me know anytime.
