Parkour has come to be not only an art form, but also a lifestyle. One that represents hard work, kinship, focus and philosophy. Silent sessions aim to draw out the spiritual side of Parkour, that is, training alongside fellow tracuers, but commun...

June 30, 2009 from 5:30pm to 7pm
we're going to climb the stairs from street level to coit tower (not inside coit tower). depending on how many people are up there we'll do some simple parkour moves on the short walls.
so, stairs, running/sprinting uphill, and abs at the top
Love to make it, and hopefully I can, but I just moved here from Ohio and live in Oakland. I have no car and this is far from the bart. Are there any events in Oakland coming up, and if so, where?

EVERYTHING IS CLEAR TO ME NOW
"...adaptation, improvisation!
But your weakness is not your technique...
You think that's air you are breathing now?"
;)
Whoa.
party on garth
@SafeNSure LOL!!!!!!!....lol....
Finally an explanation to my now not so weird habit! Thank you Jodie!
Wow, why don't my usual questions prompt this many insightful and helpful answers?
I learned a lot from the responses of this single post.
You're ALL true :D
I guess like the saying goes, one mind any weapon.
One body, any obstacle.
Thanks (: Thi...
As the saying goes, when all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. Or similarly, it's not important to know the answers as much as it is to know how to go about finding them.
I think of parkour in terms of music- it's important to b...
it's raining right now. it's supposed to stop by tonight but i'm actually not coming because it's too cold and i'm injured anyway.
I suppose it depends a bit on your personal training style. What do you what to emphasize in your training? What interests you? If all you want is to be as fast as you can, then I can see wanting to find your strengths and relying on them almost e...

Come join your BApk friends and family to celebrate a great year of training, hard work and progression.
There will be refreshments in honor of Jason (duperhero) leaving town for a year, and a 20% discount across the store.
Come out, celebrate an...
LOL, good answer. I think I see what you mean now.
So then, you'd say that the original question here is moot. It's not a question of technique but rather of instict and experience, and that neither "quality" nor "quantity" matter.
Am I...missin...
Not if it's freezing raining tho.
I think we should try to learn as many techniques as possible but NOT as fast as possible.
I would start with the basic ones, and get those down before you elaborate on them and learn more advanced techniques.
...and everything Giorgio said is t...
Similarly, the human body, doing amazing feats.
