What Is Parkour and Freerunning?

Parkour is the art and discipline of moving through an environment overcoming all obstacles in the way, getting from point ‘A’ to point ‘B’ using some of the most efficient movements of the human body. Freerunning is the art of moving through an environment in whichever way you want, limited only by the practitioner’s imagination and athleticism, Freerunning borrows techniques from Gymnastics, Breakdancing, Parkour, and more.

”An incredible parkour gym led by an incredible parkour coach! Thanks Devin for inviting us Kingston boys out to train.” -Ben

“The Movement School offers a great class for 2-5 year olds where they can learn to safely jump and use their bodies. My guy loves it and we’re so impressed with his confidence he’s gained! Thanks Dev and Kat for a cool place to take him!” -Brianna

“Do you want to motivate your kids to activities? Bring them to the Movement School! They will choose parkour instead of video games, for sure! Devin is a great trainer, who learns them not only physical skills but self-confidence and how to face their fears! I can absolutely recommend his classes!” -Anita

“My kids love the movement school. Classes are fun and keep my kids engaged for the whole class, great place to burn energy and stay fit.” -Amber

“My kids go to the parkour and love it. I love that it’s teaching them great skills and strength. I appreciate that coach Devin encourages and pushes them to work past their fears to try new things and challenge themselves. Thanks, for helping my kids be more confident and strong!” -Michelle

“Devin and Katrina are doing an excellent job of providing a great opportunity/experience for kids and their families, that isn't available anywhere else in the Brockville area. Our kids are always excited to go to their parkour class! Thank you both so much!!!” -Martha

“My 12 year old son loves the movement school - so much so that he is raising his own money to pay for it. He wishes he could go every day!” -Cole

“I can not say enough good things about Devin and Katrina at The Movement School. My boys have been working with Devon for 2 years now. He has helped them have more self confidence. To be more aware of others and their surroundings. He has done this through teaching them Parkour. The classes are small in size and he ensures every student gets the attention and focus they need. My boys have started the Ninja class and they are now learning a mix of Parkour and Martial Arts. I have seen a huge difference in both my boys. I might add that my boys have Autism and Devin handles the challenges they give him wonderfully. Others we know have seen the change in our kids. The only new thing we are doing are these classes with The movement school. We truly thank you Devin and Katrina for all your hard work.” -Tina

“I am so happy I found The Movement School. My 9-year old only ever cared about electronics and games, he has never stuck with any extra curricular activities.....until now!!! He absolutely LOVES parkour and ninja and is even wanting to try yoga. Devon and Katka do an amazing job - I can't say enough good things about them. Thanks for getting my son off his butt and moving around, all while building strength, agility and soo much more..” _Samantha

“Devin has the ability to engage kids of all skill levels and keep them busy, learning and leaving the school feeling good about themselves and what they accomplished. Not just in the movements but about working in a group, communication, facing challenges etc. I highly recommend Devin and kat at the Movement School Brockville” -Karen
