A Brief Introduction

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.

As you all have noticed, PKNA hasn't had any new posts for quite a long time now. There are many reasons, none very good, for this slow-down. It's safe to say that most people involved with this website are still working towards the goals set for PKNA, so who knows, this site may come back in the future. Until then, safe training!

We had a huge turnout last event (see our picture at this location) and are expecting even more this time. Everyone is welcome: kids, teenagers, adults, parents, newcomers, and experienced practitioners alike, so come out and have a good time!

This jam is being held in ATHENS, GA. We are meeting at the Arch in Downtown Athens at 9:30 a.m. Saturday morning the 31st of October. Google Maps: 100 College Ave, Athens GA (intersection of College Ave. and Broad St)

This event is being hosted by the Southeast USA community Overflux.com where you can find more information regarding the event.

Local Athenians are also graciously opening up their homes for those who have to travel, and we have over a dozen people already staying with us that Friday night. Visit our site or e-mail me at [email] and I will reply as soon as I can.

If you plan on coming to the jam, please contact us somehow so we know to look for you. Also please bring a large water bottle (1-2L preferably). Happy training!

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.

...founders are not everything. ;) There were at least other 4/5 experienced community leaders (organizers? coordinators?), who had a saying in this. It was their responsibility to keep this place decent and rather block the content as it was, instead of letting spammers poop all around it... :(

Probably not seeing how even the founder of this site abandoned the discipline after PKNA ate itself.

SafeNSure
...could any of the Admins clean up all this SPAM? (here below and in the forum) It's disgraceful! This site is still visited for the good articles, and some (historical?) debates.
