Youth Parkour Level 1 & 2 (Ages 5-8)

It is here where students will begin their adaptability training, and their parkour hero's journey. Through stations, courses, games, strength and mobility training, they will learn all of the safety and skill fundamentals of parkour!

​Classes are a safe, challenging, and fun workout. Each class begins with a warm up, a skills focus using natural movements, and ends with a proper cool down.

Please arrive 5-10 minutes early to check in with the front desk. (You must have a parent signature if you're under 18!)

Preparations:

• Wear anything you feel comfortable moving in! Preferred wear is athletic shorts/pants and shirt and closed toed athletic shoes. It is recommended to remove loose jewelry and tie long hair back to prevent it from getting in your face. 
• Shoes with minimal tread and sticky rubber on the bottom are best. Also try for a flexible and light shoe. Most people prefer some padding on their shoes, especially as they are learning, but avoid shoes that have more than a finger width of foam. You want to have a good feel of the obstacle underneath you, and ideally be able to curl your toes around edges and rails. We also recommend zero-drop, or minimalist footwear because they promote stronger, healthier feet.
  

FAQ:

Q: I've done Gymnastics or some other movement art before and I think Level 1 classes will be too easy for me. Can I go straight to the upper level classes?

A: We strongly recommend that everyone starts out in Level 1. Even if you are athletic or already have some skills, you may lack certain skills or fitness that will be expected of you in the upper classes. If you feel like you have the skills to advance a coach will evaluate you.
