Emphasis on safety
Are you into parkour videos or action movies? Love moving, jumping, climbing? Want to work on yourself and overcome obstacles while masterfully controlling your body? Want to learn to work with your own fear and develop both physically and mentally? If you answered yes to any of these questions, the IMA parkour club is the right place for you!
Everyone can enjoy parkour. We won't demand sports performance right away. We'll start gently. Parkour is an activity focused on general motor development, suitable for both young and old. Our experienced coaches will safely introduce you to the world of movement to prevent injuries when practicing new elements like basic flips. The experience gained in our club can also be applied in your own training outside the gym. We'll teach you principles that will allow you to train safely on your own.
Photos of classes led by our coaches
Our gyms are fully equipped for parkour training. For example, vaults are practiced on boxes of various sizes - wooden and foam, with and without mats. The techniques learned this way are then used by the children throughout the gym.
Our coaches approach children in a friendly manner. Parkour has no strict rules; it is about free movement, which is reflected in the way the training is conducted. The priorities are safety, proper physical development, and fun.
Our gym is a real playground for children. We use the entire body, jump, climb, vault, do flips... and along the way, we also learn proper movement habits.
The final video of one training group in the Benjamin age category from the spring semester of 2018. Under the guidance of coaches, the children practiced a group choreography showcasing their skills.
Our classes are safer than they might seem at first glance. We find that children are more likely to get injured at trampoline centers or playing soccer than with us. Children instinctively feel that they need to be cautious with hard obstacles. Moreover, we lead them towards responsibility and the ability to assess their capabilities.
The final video of one training group in the Junior age category from the spring semester of 2018. Each participant created their own sequence of tricks they wanted to perform. The coaches helped, and after several attempts, everything was successfully recorded.
The foam pit is probably the most popular spot in the gym. We practice more challenging elements like flips into the foam cubes. Or we just dive into the foam for fun.
Our coaches can command respect from children just by what they themselves are capable of jumping. For some children, they are not just coaches but also role models they want to emulate.
Mostly boys attend our classes, but almost every training group also has a few girls. And they hold their own, doing everything the boys do, and sometimes even more.
Besides jumping, children experience various adventures with us. For instance, they had to navigate the entire gym without touching the ground. You won't find a better setting for the 'Floor is Lava' game anywhere!
Many of our proteges who have persisted with parkour have made this sport a lifestyle. The tricks they perform today can even amaze the founders of In Motion Academy. And for those whose interest in parkour has waned, the skills and movement habits they acquired remain useful throughout their lives.
Our gyms are the best playgrounds for children. Thanks to movable obstacles, they never enter the same gym twice. There are so many possibilities that children always have something to look forward to.
It's easy to jump into the pit, but sometimes it's harder to get out. Coach Tomáš helps one of the participants climb out.
Those who can easily flip into the foam pit can start trying to land the flips onto mats.
When practicing new techniques where there's a risk of stumbling and falling, our coaches usually provide a spot. They stand ready to intervene if something goes wrong.
Among our coaches are parkourists who rank among the Czech elite. For example, Tomáš Zonyga, one of the pioneers of parkour here and a founder of In Motion Academy, still actively leads classes.

Apology and Compensation for Missed Trainings
We do not require apologies for short-term absences (see long-term absences below). Missed hours can be made up at any time within the respective age and skill group. No need to notify in advance. Simply attend the lesson and inform the instructor on-site. However, the lessons must be used by the end of the respective semester. You can also make up lessons in advance if you know you will be absent in the following weeks. All scheduled lesson times can be viewed in the calendar.
If a participant suffers an injury or is chronically ill and this prevents continuation in the lessons, please write to us immediately at info@imacademy.cz. We will issue a coupon for the value of the lessons following the notification, which you can then use for another order.
Can I change the scheduled date?
If there are available spots on another preferred date, we recommend creating an order immediately and contacting us at info@imacademy.cz. We will then cancel the original order and transfer the payment to the new one.
Membership in the In Motion Club
The operator of parkour lessons is the In Motion - Plzeň sports club p.s. Membership is mandatory for attendees of courses and lessons. Thanks to the sports association, participants and coaches are insured, and the club can receive government support for its activities. Your membership supports the development of parkour in the Czech Republic.
The current annual fee is 100 CZK for the period from September to June. The fee will be collected in cash when you visit your first lesson of the school year.
Membership termination or requests to delete provided information can be made in writing to info@imacademy.cz, provided you do not have an active order for parkour lessons or courses.
Accident Insurance
Basic accident insurance is available to every participant in our services. The insurance is arranged by the Czech Olympic Committee.
However, the amount of compensation is minimal, and the COC therefore offers additional individual insurance. If you decide to take it, you may also use it for other activities that fall under the COC, Sokol, SSSČR, etc. More information can be found here.
Documents for claiming accident insurance can be downloaded from the documents page.

My son has been attending courses at this gym for several years. The coaches are very kind, willing, and above all experienced. They not only impart physical skills to the children but are also good role models in terms of personal qualities.
mother of a participant
My six-year-old son is thrilled with the course here. He looks forward to it every week. The coaches correct, explain, demonstrate, truly teach, and also motivate. We've been attending for the second year, and I've never seen anyone not enjoy it.
mother of a participant
I learned about parkour that it's not just about jumping from roof to roof. There's a deeper idea involved. It's about safety, responsibility... And that's exactly what I've found here.
Lucie Pelichová mother of a participantGreat physical activity for little wild ones who need to burn off some energy :). My son is very satisfied, and so are we.
father of a participant
At first, I was against my son 'doing flips somewhere', but I was completely uninformed. The courses are professionally led, and it's great to see how the kids look up to their coaches and naturally respect them.
