The essence of parkour can be stated simply: it is the art of overcoming obstacles as swiftly and efficiently as possible using only your body. The fundamentals include running, jumping, and climbing and we build on these fundamentals to improve our ability to pass over, under, around and through obstacles with more complex movements. We are a community of traceurs (parkour practitioners) who connect online and in person to train, discuss and share knowledge about the world of parkour. We practice in the urban and natural environments and encourage creativity, safety, self-discipline, and respect for the community in the practice of parkour. We welcome anyone regardless of experience.
