What is Parkour?

Parkour / Freerunning / Art du Deplacement is the primarily non-competitive physical discipline of training to move freely over and through any terrain using only the abilities of the body, principally through running, jumping, climbing, vaulting and quadrupedal movement.

It is a sport that encourages self-improvement on all levels, revealing one’s physical and mental limits while simultaneously offering ways to overcome them. It is a method of training one’s body and mind in order to be as completely functional, effective and liberated as possible in any environment.

The sport aims to build confidence, determination, self-discipline and self-reliance, and responsibility for one’s actions. It encourages humility, respect for others and for one’s environment, self-expression, community spirit, and the importance of play, discovery and safety at all times.

Coach Brad Moss

Brad runs Southend Parkour and has been practising Parkour for around 13 years and passionately believe in the benefits Parkour can offer children and adults alike.

Under highly experienced Parkour UK certified coaches, we'll guide learners through landing, jumping, balancing, vaulting and climbing skills, alongside training ideas to continue practising after the course ends and your journey begins. Our coaches are fully insured, certified and DBS checked, having worked, coached and performed around the world.
