Experienced Youth Coach - Transition into a Specialist Parkour Coach

Our Mission: Movement as a Tool for Life

At Parkour DXB, we aim to create a community where movement builds more than skill - it builds healthier bodies, stronger minds, and purposeful lives. Through a supportive, playful, and structured approach, we help every student progress at their own pace, discover their potential, and develop the confidence to thrive beyond the walls of our academy.

The Opportunity: Your Foundation, Our Craft

We are investing in dedicated youth professionals (3+ years experience in disciplines like Gymnastics, Martial Arts, or Swimming) to transform them into Specialist Parkour Movement Coaches.

Crucially, you do not need to be a Parkour athlete to apply. We recognise that you have already spent years mastering a deep pedagogical foundation, the "Psychology" of coaching. We will provide the "Craft" (the technical movement and progressions) through our structured training program.

Who You Are (The Coachable Professional)

• Passionate about Youth Development: You understand the complexities of child development and behavioral management. You don’t just "fix" behavior; you understand it as communication.
• The "White Belt" Mentality: Despite your years of experience, you have the humility to be a student again. You are ready to engage with radical candor and constant feedback to sharpen your delivery.
• A Role Model for Our Values: You naturally put student's first and are a willing team player within the business.

What You Will Do

• Master the EBA System: Learn to apply our signature Explore, Build, Apply methodology. A system designed to foster student agency by allowing discovery and ownership of their journey.
• Lead with Psychological Depth: Use the three-part Notice → Connect → Redirect formula and other tools to manage behaviour with empathy and clear boundaries.
• Coach for Independence: Help students aged 3 and up navigate real risk and consequence, teaching them to make their own decisions.
• Bridge the Gap: Complete our exclusive, application-based training course that focuses on how to coach in a parkour environment where there are multiple solutions to every challenge.

What We Offer

• Full Technical Training: Comprehensive training in Parkour movement and progressions - no prior experience in the sport is necessary.
• Employment: Full-time UAE labor contract with an expected start date in August 2026.
• Benefits: Comprehensive package including visa sponsorship, health insurance, paid annual leave, and a yearly flight allowance.

Candidate Requirements

• Minimum 3+ years of professional experience in youth coaching (ages 3+).
• A recognized coaching certification in your current sport.
• Ability to obtain a Police Clearance Certificate.
• A commitment to the Four Pillars of our development: Process, Craft, Psychology, and Culture.

The Selection Process

• Apply: Submit your CV and a covering letter. Include why you believe movement builds more than just skill.
• Interview: A discussion on your coaching philosophy. (No parkour skills assessment required).
• Invitation to Train: Attend our exclusive 2 day (four hours per day) "Introduction to Parkour Coaching" course (Free of charge).
• Final Selection: Successful course participants will proceed to full employee onboarding in August.
