Session description:
This training provides a healthy atmosphere for new practitioners to start parkour, and for everyone to advance in a safe way. This is achieved in several ways. Because safety is paramount, a positive example is set by the more experienced practitioners. This means you will always see warm ups, stretching, and slow progression of movement. It also means there will be no showing off, which leads to copy-cat behavior and subsequently injuries. Rather, people pass on knowledge humbly in a group effort to advance. While there may be several different skill levels represented at these sessions, everyone keeps a beginner mentality.
Another key aspect in this beginner atmosphere is the absence of media. There are no camera crews or reporters to get in the way or cause people to feel self-conscious. While individuals may bring cameras, they should politely ask before filming/shooting anyone other than themselves.
The perception that parkour practice is (and should be) fun, yet being "a discipline, not a game", is set from the beginning. While the atmosphere is relaxed and can be playful at times, horseplay is discouraged, and teasing, mocking, and cliquish behaviors are not tolerated...
We do not expect problems or difficulties, but we know fall back locations at driving distance.
Capuchino is a secluded spot, protected from outside view; we'll be meeting at the palm tree indicated on the map at 12:30; feel free to take a look around, if you get there earlier, but AS ALWAYS avoid roofs or trespassing into buildings.
ALL LEVELS WELCOME!

Capuchino delivers!
Thanks everybody for coming... almost 20, for no-man's-land (and the San Bruno locals MIA...) it's a good turnout, with this weather especially.
We should come here more often...
Btw: anybody heard the little "*ding*" that my knee made against some rail in the first half hour?...and I started complaining about at the end, after training on it for 2 more hours?
Well: I CAN'T WALK... Lol!
That's too funny... (*crazy grin*)

Haha, sorry, Brody, I completely forgot to message you about it.
Fun stuff today, though, did some stuff that I had no idea I could do. Man, that place is amazing. I wish I went to school there. :(

Yeah, it's been sunny all day, SUNNY. But I did get some konging practice in my backyard today. I took some 10 minutes to practice and get it down, so I'm not being a total slack-off. :)
