​

The Firestorm PK Competition Team is a group of Firestorm Athletes, kids, and adults, who receive weekly specialty training to compete in local and interstate Parkour Competitions. Athletes will learn to utilize the skills taught in their regularly scheduled Parkour Classes for use in the four categories of a Parkour Competition:

 

Skill Challenges: Athletes will learn to use their skills in precise and advanced scenarios to overcome set Challenges that escalate in difficulty. The more difficult the Skill Challenge, the more points it is worth. Athletes will train to take their existing Parkour skills to an advanced level where they can be used in ever increasingly difficult scenarios.

Here you train to improve your Parkour Skills and use them in as many diverse ways as possible, with precision.

 

Speed Course: Point A to B Obstacle Course racing. Athletes will learn how to defeat obstacles in the quickest and most efficient manner. Endurance, strength, flow, and reaction speed will be worked on until an Athlete is able to react to and overcome incoming obstacles without losing speed or focus. 

​

Here you learn to use your Parkour skills and reaction times in as quick and efficient a manner as possible.

 

Freestyle: Athletes will learn to use their personal style of movement and skills to create unique Lines. Lines are a connected sequence of skills that flow into one another, showing off an Athlete’s style abilities. Freestyle is generally judged based upon: Flow, Creativity, Difficulty, and Execution of skills in an Athlete’s Line. Each competition will have new and unique obstacles and gym layouts meaning these skills will be trained to be used in any environment.

Here is where you develop your personal style and learn to connect all your skills together creating amazing lines.

 

Big Trick: When athletes have tied scores in a Freestyle comp the tie is settled with a big trick battle. Athletes will practice adapting, improving, and perfecting 3 of their most impressive skills.

​

Here is where you strive to learn the biggest most impressive skills possible and lock them in so you can do them anytime, anywhere.

Team Training Cost

Your Tuition will be changed to the Comp Team Tuition, which is $275/month and includes your 2-hour practice each Friday from 6:30 - 8:30 PM and a Max Class Membership, allowing you to save a spot in up to four classes each week, and drop into as many classes as space is available for. There is also a one-time Comp Team Coaches fee of $125 to ensure the coach's travel fees to the competition locations, a $45 fee for a personalized Firestorm Comp Team Jersey, and a $65 Parkour Competitor's Fee for the in-house competition hosted at Firestorm Ultra in preparation for the upcoming WCPKC season. We are a family at Firestorm and this means we do not leave anyone behind.
