The Motion Academy BALCATTA: Opinions
Fantastic experience: Can't rate this place any higher. Absolutely great staff and facilities. My 7 year old is parkour crazy and has learnt so much in just 2 sessions. His confidence in how he jumps and lands, rolling and flipping is just so great to see. It's also a huge relief as a mum to have skilled staff teach the kids the correct ways to move to keep them safe. Since starting parkour my son now uses every surface to practice his skills on including my door frames see you next school holidays
Hi Lynda. Thank you so much for your lovely review! It's great to hear your son is loving his parkour journey with us, and has come so far in just a couple of sessions! We’ll be ready for more flips, rolls, and Parkour adventures next school holidays And if he can't wait until then, feel free to check out our after school / weekend classes, that offer regular, weekly classes.
Positive experience: Excellent academy for kids. Great staff. My grandson loves it!
Fantastic experience: My daughter loves going here. Thanks so much

Fantastic experience: My 7 year old did the parkour taster session in the school holidays - absolutely loved it!

Positive experience: Great place for kids to be active
Fantastic experience: Good
Fantastic experience: Fantastic for the kids
Fantastic experience: Great class for my daughter with plenty of activity. Love the way they get to try out the different areas, and learn lots of techniques
Fantastic experience: This is the BEST parkour place and I can't stress it enough!!!!!!! Not a 5 star. A 10 star!!!!
Thanks for the awesome review Ethan!
Fantastic experience: So much fun! Wonderful place to allow kids to climb, jump and move, learning as they go. Ben and the team are brilliant coaches, they are super patient and encouraging, my son loves coming back week after week!
Negative experience: Sent the kids here for a new experience during school holidays. Two of them came back in tears. My 8yr old said he was put in a group with much older kids and was constantly bullied - pushed to the ground repeatedly etc. When he reported it, the instructor apparently told him he will talk to the other boy but nothing happened. We were already halfway home and so didn’t go back to investigate further. Very disappointed. We sent the kids here due to the great reviews this place had. This is not what I expected.
Hi Siva, Could you please contact us urgently at [email protected] We have a zero tolerance to any form of bulling at our centres, and we do not group younger children with older childre. We are trying to investigate this matter but none of our staff are aware of an incident occurring. We also have no record of a booking under your name, so we have not been able to confirm which session your children attended. Edit - We have now reviewed all CCTV footage and can confirm that this incident did not happen at either of our facilities. Furthermore, we have no record of any bookings matching your details. We believe you may have intended to leave this review for a different company. We would appreciate it if you could remove the review from our business profile.
Positive experience: Every thing was alright but my kids class was not well supervised at times. There was another class that started half way through my kids class and sometimes they just gave my kids class free time. A coach from the other class kept an occasional eye on them but not really. On one occasion they had free time for 25 mins with little Supervision.
Hi Sean. Could you please contact us at [email protected] We would like to investigate this matter further as it does not reflect our class structure or company policies. Each class has it's own coach assigned to it, and there is often an additional coach that may move between classes to help with any behavioral issue. At no point do we ever leave a class without a coach. Our classes do have a free time component at the end, but this is always supervised and only runs for 10-15 mins. We would greatly appreciate your assistance to provide further information.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic program for kids. Coaches are all great with the kids, keeping them engaged and helping them with their confidence. As long as we have a day free we will be there.
Thanks for the review Teegan
Fantastic experience: The kids love going to their weekly parkour classes. Good pricing and great teachers.
Thanks for the review Lucy
Fantastic experience: Parkour! Parkour! But for real. Not that stuff they do on The Office. Kids love it.. Highly recommend Naiden and the crew.
Thanks for the review Peter. Great to hear that the kids are loving the parkour classes!
Fantastic experience: Great place to the kids for spends big amounts of energy!!! There should be a cafe near arround
Hey Camilo. Thanks for the 5 star review! If you're looking for a Cafe near our Balcatta gym, check out Urban Kitchen, they do great coffee and have a good selection of food
Fantastic experience: Endless fun for kids. With different levels and tricks to learn, it keeps the kids engaged and waiting to come back to learn more. No time wasting, they use the full hour to get the most of the workout. Grading books cost $15 which covers the book and the subsequent bands as they pass their different levels. Staff area all very energetic and very good and patient with the kids. There is plenty of parking and even a parent waiting area where you can watch the kids do their session and even a TV screen so you can watch what their doing on each obstacle. Great indoor fun and great fitness
Thanks for the 5 star review Great to hear that your kids have been enjoying their Parkour classes with us.
Fantastic experience: So happy here! There is minimal sitting time and pretty much the full 45 minutes is spent on the course. Kids are engaged and its obvious that the coaches love what they do. They encourage and gently correct movement throughout the course so the kids are learning and having fun. The gym we were attending before this was more expensive and in a 45 minute class you got max 20 minutes on the course, the rest of the time was seated. Great place and great value for money!
Hey Teleah. Thanks for the lovely review. Great to hear that the kids are enjoying their parkour classes with us. We try our best to get as much movement into each class as possible
Fantastic experience: Such a great place for kids to learn the movements and exercise of parkour!! Friendly staff

Fantastic experience: Would highly recommend "The Motion Academy" to anyone of any age whether it be parents looking for something to help their children learn different skills thru to adults wanting to get fit in a supportive and super friendly environment. The change in muscle development, co-ordination plus a range of other things is an absolute credit to Ben, Jade, Luke, Naiden and the rest of the team in not only our daughter but our son who is Epileptic and Autistic. Nothing is a problem for the team at "The Motion Academy" as they can adapt / work out around any situation.
