At Lehigh Valley Parkour Academy we teach real, authentic Parkour. But amazing moves are just the beginning. We're not just creating action heroes, we're creating heroes at life.

Teen Pathfinder Parkour helps our teen students build emotional intelligence through practical in class lessons, before they need the skill as adults.

Teen Pathfinder Parkour helps teens learn to take direction and internalize important lessons, which is vital for their continued mental and emotional growth as adults.

Whether your teen is trying to be a superstar athlete or just a responsible citizen, learning to both be a great team player and when called upon, a team leader, is a skillset that they'll be able to rely on forever.

Help your teen build early interpersonal skills early, by enrolling in Teen Pathfinder Parkour, where they'll learn to confidently and positively interact with their peers.

Coaches tell us over and over that kids enrolled in programs like Teen Pathfinder Parkour are quicker, more focused, and have a better "Sports IQ" than those that only play team sports.

Where and how your teen socializes is important. Teen Pathfinder Parkour ensures that much of their socialization will be with positive peers and role models, keeping them away from negative influences.
Family Oriented
From the class schedule to the program focus to the interaction inside the facility, Teen Pathfinder Parkour was designed for families to have a positive, supportive place to call home!
A Sense of Belonging
It's not a luxury; it's a developmental requirement that teens have connections from groups outside the home where they feel like they belong. Where they're accepted, supported, and even challenged, but most of all, where they feel they belong. Teen Pathfinder Parkour curates that experience for every single one of our students so that they know they have friends and peers they can rely on.
Character Skills
Yes, they'll learn impressive physical skills, but some of the most important lessons at Teen Pathfinder Parkour are about Persistence, Determination, Empathy and other foundational life skills that students will be able to utilize for the rest of their lives.
Athletic Skill Building
It's more than amazing ninja moves - it's proprioception, balance, agility and more - physical traits that when started young, will help your child become healthier, faster, stronger, more confident in their own bodies and far more willing to take on future physical challenges.
Personal Growth
Parents have told us that the character development lessons and positive skill building their children get at Teen Pathfinder Parkour is a huge parenting help. We've watched hundreds of teens turn into responsible, compassionate, determined teens and adults.
Kinesthetic Development
Developmental milestones don't stop once your child has grown out of the toddler phase. They can discover next-level coordination, build useable muscle strength, create dense bone structure and develop flexibility that will aid athletic performance and protect their bodies as they age. But they won't do this unless they're in a program that designed for it. Teen Pathfinder Parkour is!
It's "Worth it"
So often, activities for teens just aren't worth the hassle. Getting everyone ready, driving across town, trying to create a new routine...all to discover that the program just isn't great. We hear all the time that other activities for this age group have leadership that isn't in control, instruction that's sub par and programming that doesn't seem to connect with students. But families at Teen Pathfinder Parkour tell us that our program is the best they've ever attended!
Teens absolutely love it!
The most important part is that Teens love classes. They're having so much fun in class that they don't even realize they're learning life skills that they'll take with them forever. Parents tell us that classes at Teen Pathfinder Parkour are the best part of their child's week!
Athletic Prowess
Our curriculum is designed to turn everyday teens into superstars. It's not just parents on the sidelines who can see the physical capabilities grow, the students can feel it too! The smiles on their faces when they nail the next big move.
Confidence in Action
It's one thing to tell a kid to be confident. But when they go from day 1, not knowing anything, to being physically capable of the skills at their level, you can actually see their confidence grow. They earn it class after class.
It's so much fun!
We're not sure if it's the super engaging instructors, the age specific curriculum, the inclusive nature of the program, or the confidence teens are gaining, but teens tell us that classes at Teen Pathfinder Parkour are the most fun they've ever had. No more dragging your child to their activities; they'll be in the car waiting when it's time for class!
class times were designed by parents for parents - you're almost guaranteed to find a time that works for your families needs.
Your child will be surrounded by peers striving towards the same goals they are. They'll build friendships and be supported in their journey.
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!
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 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:
Our goals for our students are the same as your goals as a parent. Confidence, Self-Esteem, and Healthy Habits for life!
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.
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 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
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
The fact is that many of our students also do plenty of traditional sports like Football, Softball, Soccer and more. And for teens who love to do it all, their coaches consistently tell our instructors that training at Teen Pathfinder Parkour gives these teens a competitive edge with reaction time, teamwork, and a higher "Sports IQ".
Families choose Teen Pathfinder Parkour over other activities because our students truly thrive
Only .00016%
Make it "big"
For every 1 Million kids who play team sports age 8-12, on average only 168 are drafted into professional leagues. This doesn't mean you shouldn't play, but it for some families, it means the demanding schedules and negative culture just aren't worth it.
Riding the bench
After only a few seasons
Teens are often benched long before they've been given a chance to develop as athletes. At Teen Pathfinder Parkour, absolutely no one rides the bench. We make sure every student is challenges according to their abilities, and is supported as they grow into their potential.
"It's not their thing"
They deserve to find their "thing"
At Teen Pathfinder Parkour, our goal isn't to pump out pros and bench the rest; it's to develop a students' full potential. For many teens this means they may never play in the big leagues, but they'll love coming to every class, and they'll take the mental, emotional, and physical traits they develop with them into adulthood (even if they're not a pro player).
For many families, the emotional cost and lack of real benefits simply isn't worth the effort and time commitment

Can we start at any time?
Yes! We don't have typical seasons like traditional sports. We are ready for beginners all the time!
My child is too short/tall/shy/rambunctious etc. Will they fit in?
Most likely, yes. But that's why we have a trial; to be sure that our program can accomodate your child and anything they need. Parents often find that their children fit right in because our program is designed to be inclusive, but if you have specific concerns, give us a call and talk to one of our professional instructors so that we can get a better feel for what your family may need!
Will my child get hurt?
You can never completely eliminate risk, but we do our absolute best through conscious programming and expert instruction. In fact, we most often have children need to take it easy in our classes because they hurt themselves in baseball/soccer/volleyball etc. It's almost never the other way around!
