This video explores how parkour, traditionally seen as a sport for younger people, has gained popularity among senior citizens in Singapore. Led by Coach Tan Shie Boon since 2017, the Movement Singapore classes focus on enhancing strength, balance, and agility tailored specifically for older adults. The sessions feature seniors confidently climbing, vaulting, and rolling, challenging common perceptions about aging and physical activity.
The program not only boosts participants' physical abilities but also promotes mental well-being, confidence, and a strong sense of community. It acts as a preventive health measure by helping reduce fall risks and supporting independence. This report offers a close look at the training, including interviews with both the coach and participants, and explains the benefits of parkour for seniors as part of broader wellness initiatives.
