What We Are About (part 3)

Students often find improvement in their emotional state from participating in our classes. The community aspect helps students to feel like they are a valued member of a team. Our community helps meet an individuals desire to fit in somewhere and have a place to call their own. Learning that everyone who does something new fails in some way or other helps students not be as negative and down on themselves. It helps them realize failure isn’t a dead end, but instead failure is a necessary and GOOD part of becoming better and gaining new skills and abilities. Failure is a necessary part of the growth process. This is a life lesson that boosts confidence and self-esteem and frees an individual to try new things and enjoy living without being as focused on the fear of “messing up".

Our coaches are caring and understanding. They seek to help each child be successful. Because every movement is modifiable all students can be successful while also being challenged. Because of the unique way that every individual can be successful no matter what skill level they come in with we can help students build confidence in ways that cross over into daily life and school.

A lot of students who struggle with ADHD symptoms and lack of control in school and life find parkour a great outlet for releasing extra energy as well as learning to channel their energy in ways that promote safety and positive benefits. Students who struggle with learning difficulties in school often find our parkour classes a great way to boost their confidence and week after find things they have improved on and are making progress on.
