What is Parkour?
Parkour is a very dynamic discipline! It can be moving efficiently through obstacles, it can include flips and tricks, it can (and does) incorporate movements from other disciplines. For some people, it might mean doing a series of flips and flashy moves, and for someone else, it might just mean getting down on the floor and getting back up again without falling.
We have defined parkour as the act of developing and practicing the physical and mental aptitude to move effectively in any given environment. This definition gives a lot of creative license but to move effectively, one must move safely and sustainably. This is what our focus will be on as we teach parkour and movement skills. Every student, regardless of their age, ability, or skill level, starts out at at the very beginning of the curriculum. They must then pass off certain skills with an instructor in order to rank up. As students learn basic movements and skills, they can begin to combine them and are enabled to move in ways most people can only dream of!

Our Curriculum
When we first began our journey of opening a parkour gym, curriculum was one of the most important things to us. We started asking ourself how to set it up so that all students could get the right skills to keep them safe and allow them to progress one step at a time but allow them to move at their own pace. Logistically, it didn’t make sense to asses every single student and figure out what class they should be in. We also wanted to be sensitive to busy schedules for parents so it’s easier to come when it’s convenient for you.
We found a successful curriculum was developed by professionals with over 19 years of coaching experience, and tested on thousands of students. We are offering this curriculum to make sure that you have world class parkour curriculum right here in Cedar City!
The curriculum is based on a ranking system much like belts in martial arts. Every student, regardless of age or ability will start at the very beginning and must pass off certain skills in order to rank up. This system ensures that every single student develops the skills and proper form to keep them safe and allow them to progress in the most effective way possible. This also allows for families to take classes together and then progress at their own pace. Each skill must be demonstrated correctly three times in a row in order to be passed off. When a student earns a new rank, a ceremony will be held and they will be given a new wristband and t-shirt.
Parkour skills in all ranks are broken down into four categories including floor, walls, vaults, and bars. Classes will rotate through all the different categories so students can join at any time without being left behind.
Our ranking system moves up through the following colors, beginning with purple:
• Purple
• Blue
• Green
• Yellow
• Orange
• Red
• White
