Challenge Coins


What is a Challenge Coin?

The Challenge Coin tradition is a long-standing military tradition of exchanging coins to symbolize achievement, membership, or affiliation.

In the Parkour Generations community, Challenge Coins can be earned through attending special events, achieving certain milestones, or accomplishing difficult challenges. Each Parkour Generations branch has their own unique challenge coin, with their own unique way of earning that coin. Once you possess a coin, you have the option to enter into a “game” that accompanies this coin, which is a system of issuing challenges to other coin-holders.


Strength Challenge

The Strength Challenge is located at the corner of Krick Lane and Sheffield Dr. Emmaus, PA. The challenge involves starting at the bottom of the hill and sprinting up the hill as fast as possible until you touch the stop sign. Then, you return to the bottom of the hill via QM. This must be completed 3 times within 2 hours to fulfill the Strength Challenge requirement.

Touch Challenge

The Touch Challenge is located at Lock Ridge Park, Alburtis, PA. The challenge involves balancing along the entire length of the black railing that goes along the edge of the park. The challenge has two options, the harder being that you may not touch the wooden posts between each rail section, the easier being that you may touch the post. You must choose and commit to a option. Then entire length of the rail must be balanced without falling within 2 hours of the start to fulfill the Touch Challenge requirement.

Spirit Challenge

The Spirit Challenge is located at the fountain feature at Kutztown University. The fountain must be on with running water, which is typically during warm months. The challenge involves performing a handstand traverse along length of the fountain, in both directions. The two lengths of the fountain must be traversed without coming out of the position within 1 hour of starting to complete the Spirit Challenge requirement.

Why Allentown parents love Classes


Class Times 

 class times were designed by parents for parents - you're almost guaranteed to find a time that works for your families needs.

Community

Your child will be surrounded by peers striving towards the same goals they are. They'll build friendships and be supported in their journey.

Life Skills

There's literally no better place for your child to learn life skills like Persistence, Determination and Empathy. They'll listen and learn from role-model instructors, and they'll love it!

Physical Skills

It's more than amazing ninja moves - it's proprioception, balance, agility and more - physical traits that will remain with and benefit your child for the rest of their lives. 

Kids Love Classes


Kids need activities that are engaging and awesome. They *have* to be cooler than video games, TV, phones and other screen oriented activities that simply aren't beneficial. is exactly what they want - here's why:

Strength
Agility
Fun!

Congruency

Our goals for our  students are the same as your goals as a parent. Confidence, Self-Esteem, and Healthy Habits for life!

Atmosphere

Having a solid foundation of positivity in your child's life is invaluable. You can't control their experiences everywhere, nor would you want to. But at Lehigh Valley Parkour Academy, you'll know they'll always be good ones.

A Sense of Belonging

At Lehigh Valley Parkour Academy, it doesn't matter if your child isn't the best kid on the team; they'll never ride the bench. They'll always know they're valued members of class, and part of the team, each and every day.

Traditional Sports vs.  Classes

Traditional Sports

Being left out if you're 'not good enough'
unhelpful, untrained amateur coaches
Physical skills only; no focus on character development
Too many practices and games, leaving precious little family time

Traditional Youth Sports don't work for most kids.

For many families, the emotional cost and lack of real benefits simply isn't worth the effort and time commitment 

All kids are always included, physically gifted or not
Trained, caring, professional instructors 
Physical skills kids love, but an intentional focus on life skills kids need
Reasonable expectations for attendance and participation leaving plenty of family time

 is the perfect solution

All of the benefits of a group sport - teamwork, interaction with peers, learning with a group, but with all of the advantages of an individual activity
