Kickstart your parkour coaching journey and help others build confidence, overcome challenge, and take opportunity.
Our Parkour UK Level 1 Assistant Coaching qualification is our current entry level qualification for parkour coaching. It helps provide a benefit to learners through an introduction into the principles and practice of safe, ethical, and effective management of coached parkour sessions in an appropriate environment.
This qualification is designed for aspiring parkour coaches. This course enables learners to build and develop their knowledge and skills in how to effectively assist coached parkour sessions and classes.
Find out more about our Level 1 Assistant Coaching qualification below, including what to do once you have completed your three day course.
The Parkour UK Level 1 Assistant Coach qualification is a 3 day course that covers the following;
Following your 3 day in person course, you will need to complete 6 hours of 'supervised coaching sessions'. You will need to assist at least two different Parkour UK Level 2 qualified coaches for these six sessions post-course;
You have a maximum of one-year from the first date of your course in which to complete your supervised hours. These sessions will provide you with the opportunity to experience real life coaching and gain an understanding of what it is like to be an assistant to a Level 2 coach, and are therefore fundamental to your learning. We recommend you start to sign off your supervised hours as soon as you can post course rather than leave this until the last minute.
If you require help to find a Level 2 coach to sign off your supervised hours, please contact our Workforce Lead.
Once you have completed your supervised coaching sessions, you will need to send a copy (either photocopy or photograph/scan) of the completed supervised coaching record to:
Email: info@parkour.uk
Please add your name, and the location of the Level 1 Assistant Coaching Course you attended.
Please keep the original supervised coaching record in your learner pack. We will be unable to process your qualification until you have sent the signed record back
Please note that this is subject to us also being in receipt of evidence of your safeguarding and first aid qualifications - for more information on the prerequisites of these two qualifications, please see the resources section of this website, or click the buttons below.
