That is PERFECT! I will actually be a few blocks away for a lash-perm at 11:30am, so I'll come on by right afterwards.

Yeah - that was a lot of fun. Thanks for organizing this, Ryan, Roger & Andres. Super fun! Jen & I had a good time and got to try things we would never do outside.

Hey Marissa, The Richmond Library is lit at night until about 10pm. It's the one with the bouncy-floor. The "walls" if you can call them that are kinda low, but they are good for practicing precisions on since there's about a 5-6 foot gap between ...

Nice use of fire hydrants as a stepping stone. Awesome vid!

Kudos to LISA on her amazingly solid and totally incredible 7:00 minute low-plank! Girl - you must have abs of steel with platinum reinforcements! Jason and I kept looking at each other and then at the clock in total disbelief . . . Lisa, you're a...

... in the running for best training spot of 2009! If this is your first session, there is no better time and place to begin! Plan for a some necessary conditioning when you get here before jumping into it. This training provides a healthy atmos...

Good idea, I agree. Not a good idea to pay the $50 unless we get to be full members without RSF fee. Hmmm . . . they should have told us that before! Thanks for letting me know. I'll do $5 drop in this time too.

Hi Lisa, Here is the info that we were given from the guys in charge of the Berkeley gym. This is what they sent to us: Thank you for coming and participating during our club hours. We welcome all levels and people who want to learn gymnastics. C...

Ladies, i'd like to positively support the Global Climate Jam campaign by training on this day. There will also be a general BApk basic training co-located here as well, but the space is big enough that we can jam "on our own" and instruction on p...

Can you support the group with transportation? # of seats?
yes, if I am free on the day of the event and am going, I can drive others. There are 4 additional seats in my car.
About Me:
I have no acrobatic or gymnastic training, but I have done martial arts and competed primarily in wushu for years. I also do a lot of biking and running and Parkour seemed like a way to keep running fun. I first saw Parkour when I went to Buffalo New York and my boyfriend and I stayed with some friends of his family. The boy in the house - Max, was big into Parkour and showed us all these cool tricks when we were out in the grocery store parking lot. We took a long walk that night and he made a playground out of the backsides of buildings, random tables and poles, and it was so much fun! Even if I suck at everything in it, I am willing to give it my best shot. I dont expect to learn how to jump off buildings, but learning some basics would be awesome for starters!
Other Physical Disciplines:
martial arts (wushu)
straightsword
running-biiking-swimming (triathlon / marathon / road bike racing)
skiing

I am really looking forward to beginning, though!

i thought i saw some bits about that...

Thanks! I would have said it was impossible for me too, months ago, so I'll bet you'll pull it off as well.

Members can go hit any spot downtown, and shoot an alert to the whole group... somebody will show. If you have ideas for micro-session suitable spots, list them in the two discussions below, for midday and late pm trainings.

I think what the story above shows is that fear is not entirely an internal process. The Isreali guy understood the difference between when someone really wants to kill him and when someone is expressing something else which has very little to do ...

Good post. Yes, l think fear is like an obstacle in that we should pay good attention to it when it gets in our way, but we should also overcome it when necessary.

There are moments when the fear is necessary. I'm talking about the times when the fear is arbitrary and hinders your movement, like the kind described in Dog's article here: http://baparkour.ning.com/profiles/blogs/injuries-soreness-and

good question Marisa, that line is too fine and too subjective. i interchange fearlessness with overconfidence-- just short of stupidity

Yeah B-Bob is a good guy. Wont steal your stuff or mug you.... Plus, if you are above the GGB chances are these guys are the closest training group.
