If you want quick hacks to get fitter and shortcuts for fancy moves, this is not the place for that. Parkour, like yoga, is a lifestyle. This academy is the place for long term growth in body, mind and spirit.

I'm not dextrous or athletic, but the coaches showed me that anyone can learn parkour safely. I've learnt so many interesting ways to move!

Frequently asked questions
Is it hard to learn?
Every student has a different goal. Therefore, we delight in helping you grow at a safe pace you can manage, with no competition or boot-camp shouting.
While training together with your classmates, you’ll get to learn from one another and bond through shared challenges.
If you can move and love to play, you can learn Parkour and Art du Déplacement. It’s probably easier than you think. 🙂
Is it dangerous?
Safety is our academy culture’s established default.
With years of experience in managing danger under our belt, we emphasise the importance and teach the ways of keeping ourselves safe at all times.
Above all, safety starts with being mindful of one’s limits, and having the discipline to refrain. Through practice and with our help, you will be able to achieve this self-awareness.
I am old/unfit. Can I do it?
You may think only the young and active can learn Parkour and Art du Déplacement. Yet, we have taught students of diverse backgrounds from 12 years old to 64 years old.
In fact, many students began their training from an inactive lifestyle, and have discovered a whole new meaning to fitness health over time.
No matter what your abilities are, we have a class for you. We strongly believe that anyone can enjoy the benefits of movement training.
I am too busy. How can I learn?
When you learn Parkour and Art du Déplacement, the world becomes your playground again, just like when you were a kid. That perspective shift makes all the difference.
You will learn the simple movement concepts that you can quickly apply in your daily life, like balancing on a bus, striding up the stairs, or squatting safely.
Keep an open mind of play and exploration, and you will gain a lot from slightest change in your habits.
