We support healthy movement through a modern sport discipline. We also see parkour as a method of personal development.
Parkour, as a versatile sport, develops overall body coordination. It is suitable for everyone, regardless of age or sports experience. As an activity focused on overcoming obstacles, parkour is also an effective way of psychological development.
Our goal is to create an environment where parkour is accessible to the general public and to support the development of the Czech parkour community. We believe that due to its cool nature and fun aspect, parkour has the potential to inspire even inactive people to love movement.

Czech parkour elite conquered well-known London spots
Video from one of many Prague parkour jams capturing the traditional atmosphere excellently
we were a group of friends with a common passion for parkour. Some of us started parkour back in 2006. In 2011, we decided to form a parkour team. Our goal was not only to train together but also to perform and create parkour videos under a common name.
especially thanks to videos on YouTube. In Motion also built its reputation through interviews in the media and exhibitions at various events. Parkour was on the rise worldwide, and we were one of the main players on the domestic scene.
which was achieved particularly due to the phenomenal success of our video "Czech In London," which made waves in the global parkour scene and received great reviews. Clips from this and other videos of ours appeared in compilations that garnered millions of views on YouTube.
Our Prague Jam became the largest regular event here. Every six months, parkourists from all over the country and abroad meet there. Our members have also been organizing training for beginners from the beginning, laying the foundation for current parkour lessons.
Our history continued by overcoming the biggest challenge up to that point, which started the transformation of the parkour team In Motion into the company operating parkour gyms In Motion Academy.
The interior spaces of such a parkour gym are unlike any other and can enchant newcomers. The eye moves across many levels, nooks, platforms, walls, and railings. However, the main purpose is not visual attractiveness but the widest possible range of parkour opportunities. In parkour, there is no definitive list of exercise equipment - it is a sport based on adaptability to an unlimited number of obstacles that exist in the world around us. Parkour gyms try to simulate them in an enriched, dense version, so they offer opportunities not commonly found outdoors.
The parkour practitioner chooses their own path. Through improving their movement skills, they have more options to move freely, independent of predefined paths.
The parkour practitioner knows their limits and the risks of their surroundings, which allows them to make decisions and bear the consequences of those decisions.
The parkour practitioner respects their surroundings, the environment where they train, their friends, and their body. They behave in a way to avoid harming any of these. They listen to their body and take good care of it.
Every parkour practitioner has their own path and style. There is no better or worse. Everyone has something to learn continually, even from the less experienced.
Through training, the parkour practitioner gains trust in their own abilities and in themselves. Parkourists also trust each other. You never know when you will need others.
The parkour practitioner clears their mind, which allows them to succeed where fear and nervousness would bring them down. Through focus, the mind of a parkour practitioner finds itself in the immediate present and escapes the influences of everyday stress.
The parkour practitioner works with their fear. They know when it's necessary to listen to it and when to go against it. By continually overcoming new challenges, they become braver.
Parkour is an open discipline to all. Parkourists are friendly and willing to help and advise each other. They welcome newcomers and pass on their experience.
The parkour practitioner is persistent in their training. Some techniques require long-term training and hard work before they can be mastered. A parkourist does not give up easily.
The parkour practitioner strives to improve every day. With every next move, they try to surpass themselves again. They know there is always room for improvement.
