Parkour

Program Overview
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. Parkour is a system of fitness training that improves strength, speed, agility, co-ordination, stamina, endurance, and precision. It offers a full-body workout at any level of experience, and improves your ability to move, to harness your confidence, to change how you see the world. Parkour practitioners are called Traceurs. Kyle is an A.D.A.P.T. certified Parkour coach and has been practicing Parkour since 2004. He currently volunteers at Parkour Visions in Seattle, and is eager to spread the technique and mindset for fun and safety to the eastside.
