What Parkour Entails: Parkour, as an athletic training discipline, involves practitioners striving to traverse from point A to point B with utmost fluidity, eschewing auxiliary equipment and prioritizing speed and efficiency. Rooted in military obstacle course training and martial arts, parkour encompasses activities such as running, climbing, swinging, vaulting, jumping, plyometrics, rolling, and quadrupedal movement—utilizing whatever is suitable for a given context. It can be pursued individually or in groups, typically unfolding in urban environments but adaptable to various settings. The essence of parkour lies in perceiving one’s surroundings with a fresh perspective and envisioning the potential for navigating it through movement across, around, through, over, and under its features.
