Where We Offer Classes

Our goal is to bring parkour classes with a focus on character and community within driving distance of all youth in East Texas. When I, Hannah, started parkour in 2014, I had to drive a 4 hour round trip to get to the closest full parkour gym. It is my goal with Parkour East Texas to create a thriving community local so no parents have to drive the distance I did for quality, committed parkour instruction on a regular basis!

We offer classes in Kilgore (with our home base gym). Our second hub is in Nacogdoches and we are raising funds and growing equipment to prepare to open a gym there. We also offer classes at parks around these cities: Marshall, Carthage, Lufkin, Tyler, Lindale, and Canton.

We offer several events throughout the year to promote growth of the broader parkour community that are in the Kilgore area around our home base! These include the R.I.G. Event in February, the Annual Parkour East Texas Jam the Saturday after Easter, and often another Parkour or Tag event in the Fall!

Our stellar Rise-N-Lead Internship program (open to application for any Level 3 and beyond student) is based in Kilgore. We have one monthly meeting as well as an optional weekly training. The hands on coaching part can be done in a location closer to the interns home.

In order to help us cover the cost of travel and keeping many small classes open around East Texas, you can help us by spreading the word with your friends! Our goal is to have 5 classes with at least 4 students in each location! We are passionate about working towards building gyms around East Texas to provide an option that is not dependent on weather and day light to all East Texas youth.
