Parkour - Parkour Summer Clinic
Parkour, also known as freerunning or l'art du déplacement originally started outside of Paris in the late 1980's and has since become one of the fastest growing sports in the world. Parkour practitioners learn to navigate their environment and overcome mental and physical challenges in a safe and pro-gressive manner in order to be able to move through any envi-ronment. Classes are designed to accommodate a wide range of fitness and ability levels, and are all taught by an ADAPT-certified instructor. Program takes place rain/snow or shine.Kids Parkour Classes (6-9yo, 9-13yo)Jump into the dynamic world of parkour as you run, jump, and climb through your environment with Parkour Generations Boston! This class is designed to teach you the techniques and fundamental ideals of parkour in a safe and progressive non-competitive setting, while building your physical strength and developing your self-confidence. You'll learn to see the world through "parkour vision", where the world becomes your playground and learn to embrace obstacles as an opportunity for fun and exploration. All sessions are designed for a wide range of fitness levels and abilities- from absolute beginners to experienced practitioners! Adult/Teen & Low Impact Class (Ages 14-70+)A class is specifically designed for practitioners with "more life experience" that are interested in getting the fitness and agility benefits of parkour training without some of the higher-impact movements of our other classes. Classes are accessible to participants with a wide range of physical and fitness backgrounds- from the first time off the couch in years, to the seasoned weekend triathlete. All classes are taught by ADAPT certified coaches and include a combination of instruction in the movements and techniques of parkour, conditioning and strengthening exercises aimed at general fitness and the long-term practice of parkour, and a combination of exercises, routes and drills with the aim of providing a great (and fun) workout for any fitness level. Kids Advanced Class (Ages 8-13)A class designed for more experienced parkour practitioners that have established a strong physical and technical foundation and are ready to bring their training to the next level (age 8-13). Interested participants should ask a PKGB coach to do an assessment of their readiness for the class and what they should improve/prepare to participate. Participants must have attended at least 1 season of PkGen Boston classes to participate (ask one of the PKGB team for details). Classes cover a mix of: - Parkour movements, techniques, and challenges that help participants to explore their capabilities within the safe supervised structure of classes - Acrobatic elements that explore air awareness, inversion, and adding "flair" or style into movement - Delve further into the roots and spirit of parkour training and explore how overcoming challenges can build self-confidence and adaptability that can be applied outside of parkour****Please complete the waiver form below and bring it with you for the first class.******
