Parkour In Schools - American Parkour

Changing people’s lives through movement has always been central to our mission at American Parkour! We especally love the impact we have on children when we help them get out of their comfort zone and teach them that they never have to stop playing! American Parkour has been teaching parkour to kids since they first opened their doors in 2006. In parks, local meetups, and in affiliate gyms across the country.

Then 5 years ago we had the opportunity to take affect the lives of even more children by teaching students parkour in schools during their Physical Education classes. Ever since then our mission evolved from simply teaching people parkour to offering parkour in as many schools as possible to make the biggest impact

Why Offer Parkour

Because Parkour is really cool and kids love it. It’s easier than offering gymnastics and some stuff about how it meets all of the gymnastic requirements for SHAPE (society of Health and Physical Educators)

Key Statistics

30 Schools

We’ve been in over 30 schools.

10,000 Precision Sticks

While parkour doesn’t need equipment to do it outside, schools have specialized needs and specific requirements to facilitate teaching and maintain the safety of each child. That’s why American Parkour also provides the best Parkour equipment available directly to schools.

22,000 Kids

Our teaching methods have been developed over the last 16 years and just like we encourage students to grow and improve we improve our programs using the lessons learned from each class we help implement.

How Does it Work

This is the part I’m unclear about and would love to talk to you more about.

We teach your PE teachers, we provide the curriculum, we can provide the equipment. We also provide opportunities to learn more and improve your parkour teaching skills.
