Parkour is more than a sport, It's a way of living and a state of mind. Overcoming obstacles and looking for new paths - Whether you're toung or old, a novice or an expert - Can be Practiced anywhere, Whether in a country or a town.

The aim of Parkour training is to test your capacity to evolve, No Matter what the enviroment. There's no need for specific equipment in order to get going. You only need good shoes - Preferably running shoes - And clothes which are suitable to let your body breathe.

Stuff looks very cool.

I wouldn't do it under any circumstances unless I was given a billion euro or something but it's cool nonetheless.

It's definately one of the more interesting things out there at the moment.
