Drop off and Pick up in the car Park
The car park outside the gym is not available for parking at present due to the COVID restrictions, we are using this as a drop off and pick up point for parents.
Can we ask that no one is parking in this area as this causes problems for parents dropping off and picking up. This will help with the the smooth process of drop off and pick up.
Please park elsewhere as there is plenty of parking around Kingston.
Your co-operation on this will be greatly appreciated
Covid19 update
As you are well aware there have been many changes to our classes over the last few weeks and we are happy that due to these changes we are able to continue to remain open and offer our services in a covid secure environment. Please can I remind all our customers that if you child is feeling unwell or has any covid symptoms not to bring them along for there session. Please check temperatures regularly and continue to wash and clean hands before coming along to you class. Also remember will will be checking temperatures at the door, please make sure to stand in the marked areas and not to use the carpark directly outside of our gym to park, this should only be used for pick up and drop off. Thank you and we hope you are enjoying your sessions.
4pm beginner class today cancelled.
Unfortunately we have to cancel our beginner class today following the sad news concerning the coach who is dealing with a family issue.
All other classes will go ahead as normal but unfortunately we couldnt get this class covered.
We are very sorry to do this and hope you understand.
Our thoughts go out to our coach.
COVID-19 UPDATE
As with the rest of the country we have been forced to close in order to contain this epidemic.
So the options available to you are:
1) Keep your memberships going as usual despite the closure. We appreciate your support in these hard and uncertain times.
2) Freeze your membership which is £10 per month. This retains your place in your allocated class. Once we reopen you will be guaranteed your place in your allocated class and move back to full membership.
3) Cancel your membership, which we totally understand. If you do cancel you will have to re-register with us once we do open and we cannot guarantee your place.
What ever you decide please get in touch so we can make the necessary changes to direct debits etc.
Keep safe and hope to see everyone ounce we are back to normal.
Once again thanks for support and understanding in such difficult times.

Changes to Paramount Parkour
News letter
Paramount Parkour are undergoing some huge changes to our structure. We have listened to our feedback and feel it’s now time for a change. We want to bring the fun back to Parkour but without losing our outstanding focus and control within the classes. In july we will be making huge changes to our
- grading system
- class format
- timetable and new classes
- What, when and how we teach
Grading system
Many students find it hard or may get stuck on certain tricks within our grading system we have now reduced and simplified each grade and made the focus of each grade less about individual tricks and more about movement itself. This will make it far easier to move along the system collecting grading tops along the way. Encouraging student to progress rather than our student getting down as one trick holds them back.
Our class format
As we want to encourage learning by having fun we have made some changes to our lesson plans
10 mins warm up
60 mins coaching
10 mins free time (self learning using gym)
10 mins conditioning (coaches may decide more or less depending on class focus)
The aim of this change is to allow students so freedom to become more creative and to have more fun at sessions.
What when and how we teach
To follow our new grading system we are changing what is being taught each week. We now will have Week A and week B.
Week A will be Traditional Parkour moving from A to B. moves like jumps pre’s cat grabs tic tacs wall runs vaults climbing swinging.
Week B will be Flips and tricks. So all your skill moves back front side flip wall flips palm spins,corks and so much more.
Week A 1st to the 7th
Week B 8th to the 14th
Week A 15th to the 21st
Week B 22nd to the 28th
Grading 29th to the 31st
Time table and new classes
From the 1st of August 2018 we are opening new classes. we currently only have beginner and intermediate classes we will be opening a separate advanced class. This will be our highest level class and students in this class will focus on much harder movements getting them closer to our elite team. Over the next few weeks the coaches will be looking at all students and deciding where they believe they need to be to get the best out of there training do not worry about your current level we will look at everyone. To attend the advanced class you need to attend 2 sessions a week min this is due to the level of tricks being taught we need students at more classes. We would advise at this level to attend 3 sessions per week.
In order to get the best out of the class we are recommending all students attend 2 sessions per week particularly intermediate class.
Please remember the skills we teach are the same difficulty as gymnastics but parkour has many more tricks and techniques.
We have reduced our silver package to £50 from £60 a month and our gold from £90 to £75 per month to help and ensure all students can attend more sessions per week.
New timetable as of 1st Aug 2018
Christmas holiday closures
We will be closed from the 2323rd December till the 1st Jan.
Sessions start again on the 2nd Jan 2018
