Parkour is an art of movement, a discipline that enables the practitioner to travel freely through and over any terrain they may encounter. Parkour focuses on developing the fundamental attributes required for movement, including balance, strength, dynamism, endurance, precision, spatial awareness and creative vision.

 

Beyond this simple explanation, however, Parkour is a discipline of self-improvement on all levels, an art that reveals to the practitioner his or her own physical and mental limits and simultaneously offers a method to surpass them.

 

Parkour training benefits include: Increase in motor skills, coordination and fitness and functional strength. Increase in agility, balance and in safety through improved physical control from a young age. Increase in social skills, teamwork and leadership abilities. Playful and communal interaction with peers and improved physical and mental confidence through challenge and managed risk. Great fun for all!
