What it’s like

A freerunning gym where kids try parkour moves, coached challenges and NERF battles, mostly booked out as a two-hour party.

This is a parkour and freerunning space built for parties rather than drop-in visits: open session free play with coaches watching on, structured games and challenges if you book the coached option, or full NERF battles if that's more your kids' thing. All three run for two hours, so there's proper time to get through a safety brief, have a go, eat, and have another go before everyone's collected.

The open session party is the cheapest route in at £12 a head, but you need at least 12 people to book it. Step up to a coached party and it's £14 a head with a minimum of 16, which gets you structured games rather than just free play. The NERF party is the priciest at £16 a head and needs 18 people minimum, which is a lot of kids to round up for a birthday but presumably makes for a proper battle. Add pizza for £4.99 a head if you don't want to sort food yourself, and expect it to land about halfway through so there's energy either side of it.

Kit-wise, kids need proper athletic gear, nothing loose or slippery that'll get in the way of the moves. Parents are welcome to stay and there are facilities for them on site. It's open long hours in the week, 11am to 9pm Monday to Friday, and a shorter 10am to 6pm at weekends, which suggests weekday afternoons after school might be your quieter bet if you can swing it.
