The ‚LEAP‘ event is primarily intended for close exchange and learning from each other. Accordingly, we attach great importance to inviting a select number of national and international coaches to Cologne every year, who, as absolute experts, are to provide the basis for dialogue and discussion in their workshops.
This year we are therefore pleased to introduce the following guests:
Coaches of the ‚Adult Workshops‘ 🇩🇪/🇬🇧
Camila Stefaniu
Camila is a professional athlete and coach, born and raised in Brazil, and currently living in Leuven (BEL). She is passionate about movement, different forms of art and has been training parkour for almost 12 years.
Camila has participated in many international events and jams and has also competed in some major competitions. Just recently she starred in the highly proclaimed parkour film „GATECRASHER: An All-Women’s Parkour Action Film“.
Training is what she loves the most and she is eager to share her experiences at this event!
It will be her first time coming to Cologne and we are super excited to welcome her to our city!

Zoe Kern
Zoe is 22 years old and from the Black Forest in Germany. Earlier in life, she has practised gymnastics, athletics and dance, and has worked as a coach at her local club. She came across parkour around 3 years ago and found her passion in it.
What she loves about parkour is the freedom that anything is possible as well as the many possibilities to adapt to the environment. Strongly influenced by her multifaceted background, Zoe is a powerhouse when it comes to athleticism, acrobatics and aesthetic movement in general.

Juli Kulczycka
Juli is a Parkour and Freerunning athlete and has been teaching for 7 years now. She is 21 years old and currently coaching at @diehallehamburg in Hamburg. There she is instructing classes for various age groups.
Juli loves being creative and always open to mental challenges. Over the years of her training, she has developed her own unique style, characterized by movements that require thinking outside the box. With her, you never know what to expect next and will always be surprised by what will happen in her lines.
She looks forward to meeting new people and exploring the spots in Cologne for the first time.

Jannis is an enthusiastic traceur, sports scientist and physiotherapist. As co-founder of the @imgruenenbereich project, now at @mojoinstitut for regenerative medicine, he pursues his vision of accompanying people to a life of holistic health.

Coach des ‚Teens Workshop‘ 🇩🇪
Adrian Grothe
Adrian (@perspektivpionier) kommt aus Essen (GER).
Seit 2013 beklettert er die Architektur und den Wald. Er liebt die vielen Perspektiven, die es zu entdecken gibt, und habt große Freude daran, Menschen die Parkour-Vision zu zeigen.
Beim LEAP24 wird Adrian vor allem für die Teens da sein. Zum einen bietet er einen Workshop an, bringt sich mit seiner Energie und Lebensfreude aber auch sonst beim Event mit ein!
Übrigens: Er spielt auch für sein Leben gerne Gitarre und singt, weswegen er für euch auch eine Musikjam und ein kleines Konzert am Samstagabend der JAM organisiert!
Coaches des ‚Kids Workshop‘ 🇩🇪
Hannah Simon
Hannah (@ha.nn.ah.xd) ist langjähige Trainerin und Athletin in unserem Verein. Parkour trainiert sie bereits seit dem frühen Jugendalter und vertieft ihre Leidenschaft aktuell durch ein Studium an der Deutschen Sporthochschule Köln. Somit verbindet sie die Expertise aus dem eigenen Training mit sportwissenschaftlichem und pädagogischem Background.
Entsprechend dürfen sich eure Kids über eine Menge spannender Herausforderungen und neuer Moves freuen!
Emilio Funk
Emilio (@emiliofunk) ist ein wahres Bewegungstalent. Neben dem Turnen und Ski-Fahren übte er sich schon früh selbstständig im Überwinden von Hindernissen und dem Lernen neuer Tricks.
Heute ist er seit einigen Jahren begeisterter Parkour-Athlet und, genau wie Hannah, Student an der Deutschen Sporthochschule in Köln. Parallel coacht er unsere PKM Kids-Kurse, ist Betreuer bei Schulausflügen, leitet Jugendfreizeiten, arbeitet im Seniorensport und ist allgemein in der Sportvermittlung zu Hause.
Maximale Expertise also, um eure Kids im Training zu begleiten.
