After having my imagination captured by free-running / parkour I've started looking at urban street architecture in terms of running and jumping around and over it. And wondering how I'd train for this. By some bizarre fortune it turns out there are seven outdoor exercise stations spread out around a playing field almost adjacent to home! (I'd seen it before but not with the eyes of a budding freerunner...)
This evening, after a one km warm-up run I spent a very pleasant 45mins jumping, twisting, handstanding, pull-up'ing and generally taxing my ankles, wrists, and shoulders. What fun! And with a pull-up bar I have pretty much everything I need to hammer most muscle groups and thus avoid a gym membership... Woo-hoo!
i want to know where i could find a gym so i can train for free running/parkour as i want to get started.

Posted by: ShadowOD at March 13, 2007 18:41I'm from DC and do "Parkour". I didn't know there was name for it until today. I've done it my whole life and thought I invented it (In my mind I always thought of it as an extreme sport to be held in heavily wooded areas). The ability to know my surroundings and distribute my weight as quickly and quietly as possible has always been my goal. Anyway I know some really good areas in Washington DC, especially around Rock Creek Park, The Palisades neighborhood, and Great Falls. I typically scale trees while I’m at it (I don't know if that's also part of Parkour but it's challenging). And if anyone has the chance, go to Schoodic Point, Maine. That's where I first remember challenging myself at age 8. Fun place. Except if you fall in the wrong place you fall to your death.
Posted by: Phil at March 14, 2007 20:31i am wondering if there is a free running gym of such kind in britain for me and freinds to go it has inspired me and my freinds to start it i really want to know it looks brilliant.

Posted by: ChippyPK at November 4, 2007 12:32btw, guys, there are hardly ANY parkour clubs or anythin, main ones are in Big Cities, like London, Paris, Edinbrough
ya gotta find the sites with the basics, like Roll, Cat Leap, Cat Balance, Balance, Turn Vault, Reverse Vault etc.... and practise them on the streets [ YA GOTTA SPOT GOOD PLACES THAT ARE WITHIN TRAVELLING DISTANCE FOR YOU ]
learn from ya own mistake and experiences, its the only way to get the reactions if something goes wrong on an advanced move

Posted by: jake taylor at January 21, 2008 14:51Is there any parkourists in medway if there is email me i'd ,like to train with you or them.
Posted by: Dyno at January 25, 2008 12:26for anyone wanting to start parkour I have a few words of advice for you. I have been doing parkour for several years now.
for starters learning Parkour in a gym is NOT a good idea, as this will not allow your mind to develop for when u attempt any PK in an outdoor environment.
another thing is, DON'T use gloves. I've seen alot of new people wear gloves to protect their hands, while gloves do protect, they also give you less grip than with bare hands. Not only that, they stop ur hands forming a rough layer of skin that will prevent scratches and blisters from doing things like cat leaps and so on.
third tip: start small. people who go out first time and try the huge jumps and stuff tend not to last long and get injured very quickly.
fourth: no matter what people tell you, flips are NOT parkour!! parkour is all about getting from one place to another in the most efficient way possible, flips aren't efficient.
number 5: boy I have a lot of tips on this. always look for new ways to move. there may be some fundamentals that you will need to learn, but don't be afraid to expand. if u find a better way to pass on obstacle then use that way.
finally: it's never a good idea to train alone, u should always have at least 3 people training, this is simply for safety reasons but can also cause you to push each other harder to become better
I hope that this helps :)
