Parkour is a physical discipline inspired by human movement, focusing on fast efficient forward motion over, under, and around obstacles in one's environment. Such movement may come in the form of running, jumping, climbing, and other more complex techniques. The goal of parkour is to adapt one's movement to any given obstacle.

1st Massive West Coast Jam a huge success... to be repeated!
May 29 '09, 07:26PM
During Memorial Day weekend 2009 BAparkour and PKCali joined forces to bring as many West Coast communities together for a regional Jam in San Francisco...the 1st Massive West Coast Jam (MWCJ). It was a great success seeing an estimate of about 80 traceurs at any given time. In attendance were people from all across the West Coast ranging from as far South as San Diego, California to as far North as Washington state.
Well we've finally gotten the Fairbanks, Alaska parkour crew up and running. Just thought I'd drop in and let everyone know in case there's any traceurs or free runners in the area looking for a group. Hit us up on FBX PK. Also, any other communities out there who are based on myspace or have a page, please shoot an add request at us. We're still in the infant stage, and would like to network as much as possible, and make some friends. Cheers!
Michael Alosi put in a lot of time making this film and met with many communities & individuals across the globe. Watch & tell him what you think of the film at the links below.
It's time again to start cleaning! This time, we have the official support of American Parkour and the Australian Parkour Association. Let's unite to make the world a better place! Again. Please feel free to share your stories.
APK has been a great partner with PKNA for the Leave No Trace Initiative. :) I'm well aware of the tracker. Along with this, the Australian Parkour Association has been a great partner for these events, too.
cool stuff. if you check out Link they have a running tally of how many events and how many bags of trash have been collected for the leave no trace movement. you should post your events there also so that they will be counted.
Sorry, it was pretty low quality. It was a call-out to stage cleaning events throughout April. There were a few events, and no one is discouraged from holding more events throughout the year.
