Here Are 7 Things You Can Do At BOUNCE – Singapore’s Largest Indoor Trampoline Arena!

Most of us have heard of untitled-design-9

One of the most attractive features at BOUNCE Singapore, The Wall uses all that energy from jumping on trampolines to run up a wall! While it might take a few tries for you to successfully climb the wall, you’re going to have a lot of fun just trying it out!

2. Slam Dunk

If you’re a basketball fan, Slam Dunk is going to be the first feature you should head to when you arrive at BOUNCE. Involving a basketball ring high above some runway trampolines, you can now finally slam dunk just like the pros! Drag some friends and get a little creative!

3. Big Bag

Seen those twist, turns and flips that adrenaline junkies seem to pull of flawlessly?  The Big Bag sits at the end of 2 trampolines, so you get the chance to pull off those advance moves you’ve been dying to try out! Best part? Even if you completely wipe out, the Big Bag is there to make sure you don’t break a bone!

4. Trampoline Dodgeball

Put trampolines and Ninja Warrior together and you get X-Park! Combining elements of climbing, jumping and free-running, X-Park was designed to allow something challenging to expert trampoliners! Developed in collaboration with parkour enthusiasts, the X-Park requires agility and coordination, the X-Park is no walk in the park (pardon the pun)!

Even if you’re not going abroad, you can look to our very own humble abode for fun things to do and places to explore. Singapore isn’t just about Orchard Road or Gardens by the Bay. We’re almost as sick of these places as you are!

Dubbed one of Singapore’s most well-kept secrets, the Thow Kwang Pottery Jungle is a place that combines heritage, history, discovery, and fun. It gives vibes of an old museum and you can actually buy proper pottery and art at a reasonable price!

There’s also the Dragon Kiln (a furnace/oven for burning pottery), one of the oldest surviving brick-built kilns in Singapore for wood firing. If you’d like to learn more about pottery, Thow Kwang also hosts a series of workshops that will give you your Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze “Ghost” pottery moment.

Are you looking for a beach to visit, but find that those at Sentosa are overpopulated? Why not try Lazarus Island instead? Accessible by a causeway from St John’s Island, Lazarus Island is home to an untouched tranquil beach.

You could take a dip in the clear turquoise waters, and bring along a picnic basket for a picnic on the pristine white sand. For the best beaches in Singapore, read this.
