1 month agoHi there! While my situation is not as dire as the OPs, I’m in a similar boat and am looking to set up an online presence for my services in the near-future. I don’t expect you to provide me with the same offer, or even a response, but I figured I’d ask. If there are any guides or resources you recommend, I’d appreciate anything. Thank you for your comment, it’s a good idea for people in similar situations and spurred me to more seriously consider such options
Don’t know where you’re located, but there are parkour gyms popping up all over the place, and most have kids classes. They may go by ninja warrior gyms or be combined with climbing or gymnastics gyms. These gyms are often designed with kids and safety in mind, and will teach kids safe, sustainable movements
Another option is to scout a local parkour group. The one I’ve attended events of most in the past, SF Parkour (in the SF bay area) has events specifically for kids. You’ll want to vet the groups of course and likely be present as they’re not daycares, but you may be surprised how many parkourspeople are knowledgeable and mindful about safety and developing sustainable body mechanics. There are some reckless groups and members out there for sure, but most are rather cautious
Parkour is a meditative practice for most I’ve encountered and seen online, though that may be NorCal thing and online self-selection. Scouting some strong mentors and content from online communities that reinforce learning one’s limits and safely expanding them will likely encourage her to do the same. Can’t speak more highly of Raul Piscoya, the guy who runs SF parkour
