Parkour Foundations (Ages 6-7)
Children in this age group undergo dramatic changes in their development and self-reliance. Not only does the child's body change and grow physically, but the mental landscape begins to transition from primarily fantasy-based to being increasingly governed by logic and reason.
In the Parkour Foundations program, we build on the progress that began in Our Mini Ninjas program and continue to immerse our students in games and challenges that strengthen these newly developing mental faculties. Children ages 6-7 tend to have abundant energy and never seem to fatigue. The Parkour Foundations program harnesses this energy and continues to provide:
Physical, mental, and emotional challenges through games and open-ended play
Independence in making positive choices
Sensory and motor development skills
Friendship and teamwork with classmates
Control of major muscle chains
Understanding how the body works
Character development
Overcoming one’s fears
Counting and understanding numbers
Reaction and memory skills
