WHAT IS PARKOUR & FREERUNNING?
Parkour and freerunning are athletic disciplines that involve efficient movement through various obstacles in the environment, typically in urban settings. While they share some similarities, there are slight differences between the two.
Parkour is the art of moving from one point to another in the fastest and most efficient way possible. It emphasizes practical movements like running, jumping, climbing, and vaulting, with a focus on speed, precision, and fluidity. Parkour practitioners, known as traceurs, aim to navigate obstacles with agility and effectiveness, often incorporating acrobatics into their movements.
Freerunning, on the other hand, builds upon the foundation of parkour but adds a creative and expressive element to it. Freerunners focus not only on efficiency but also on style, adding flips, spins, and other acrobatic maneuvers to their movement. While freerunning encompasses parkour techniques, it places a greater emphasis on self-expression and artistic freedom.
Both parkour and freerunning require physical fitness, body control, spatial awareness, and mental discipline. Practitioners train to overcome physical and mental obstacles, often in non-competitive environments. These disciplines have gained popularity worldwide and are enjoyed as recreational activities, as well as showcased in movies, videos, and events.
“Perhaps the greatest purpose of a movement practice is to open up our capacity to have experiences that are profoundly meaningful”
