[PkGenerations] afPE Guidance on Parkour in UK Schools

[News-Bot 147]

The Association for Physical Education (afPE) now has guidance for introducing parkour into school settings, including a full breakdown of the certifications required to enable accurate, safe teaching of the activity. This guidance can be found over on the Parkour UK website. 

Parkour Generations began the teaching of parkour in schools almost ten years ago in the UK, and since then our Parkour for Schools Programme has gone from strength to strength. Our ADAPT certifications form the basis for the official QCF certifications for coaching and teaching parkour, and our Fitness Specialist programme does the same for the new fitness instructor certifications with CYQ.

We're delighted to see parkour reach the stage where it is now formally encouraged and accepted in an educational setting, bringing the benefits of natural movement training to young people all over thr country. 

For more details on how your school can introduce parkour classes contact our coaching department and see what we can do for you.
