Train your body and mind to easily overcome obstacles in creative and sustainable ways in this action packed summer camp! Develop proper techniques to ensure safety and longevity while fluidly adapting one’s movements to the environment and having a ton of fun! Among others, basic skills taught include Precision Landings, Various Vaulting styles, Rolling, Wall Running, Rail Balancing, Quadrupedal Movements, and looking beyond traditional use of objects. Our Freerunning section adds in Basic Acrobatics and “tricking” such as Rail Flips, Spins, and Handstands yet our focus is always on safety, learning one’s boundaries, self improvement and creativity.
Every session will consist of proper warmups/stretching, physical conditioning/drills, and developing specific skills. Training is tailored to students’ various abilities to help them grow through intense noncompetitive activity, while encouraging positive collaboration, creative movement, and respect for all people and places. On our final day, each student will have the opportunity to video capture their progress to star in their own fun parkour video, edited to music and sent out to parents shortly afterwards. Though we train inside sometimes, Parkour is an outdoor sport and being outside is a key element to this camp. We will be training at Sunnyside Park near the theater for the majority of our time. No previous parkour/acrobatic/gymnastic training necessary. Ages 7-11- All Levels.
