WHAT OUR PARENTS & KIDS SAY
Victoria Bretherton
Mother of two
Access Parkour has literally changed my family for the better! My teenagers found a safe place to grow and become the amazing people they are, within a challenging, fun and accepting group.
They not only became better equipped physically and mentally to assess situations, to push themselves and to reflect on their actions but better able to interact with other people regardless of different ages and backgrounds.
I can't recommend Access Parkour highly enough.
-
My 2 boys Sam and Fraser enjoy the class and it gives them a good workout too, physically and mentally. Instructors are engaging and keep them focused. Well done!
