Hardcore Parkour
12/7/2017
Parkour has finally made it's appearance in gym class this year. The kids have been begging for the Parkour unit since the beginning of the year and they did a great job stretching their physical abilities and taking some risks during this popular unit. This is a great chance for kids to find a way to clear an obstacle as efficiently as possible, but it's also a chance for them to show of their skills and tricks! Parkour, also known as free running, is a French military-designed training which utilizes obstacle courses. The obstacles requires extreme focus and a can-do attitude, and heavily utilize physical abilities such running, jumping, swinging, rolling and even climbing. It’s is a fun and exciting way to exercise and anyone can enjoy it.
How does Parkour benefit your child? I found this info on www.healthfitnessrevolution.com and it perfectly outlines the many benefits and advantages to working out "parkour style."
