To investigate the generalization of correct parkour skill trials from physical education to parkour recess in elementary school as a function of skill level. Seven 2nd grade classes with 147 children (55 girls) received a 10-lesson sport education parkour season. During the season, children could voluntarily participate in five parkour recess sessions during lunch recess. Children’s voluntary participation in parkour recess was recorded and all skill trials in physical education and parkour recess were collected. There was no difference on voluntary participation in parkour recess between higher- (78%) and lower-skilled (77%) children. Higher-skilled children had higher percentages of correct skill trials than lower-skilled children in physical education (48% vs. 40%, p = .001) and parkour recess (42% vs. 32% p = .002). Most children voluntarily participated in parkour recess regardless of skill level. Parkour recess offered the opportunity to practice the skills learned in physical education.
