Invented by David Belle and ultra sexy Sebastien Foucan (yum!) from the southern suburbs of Paris, free-running uses gymnastic skills to find alarming new ways of navigating the urban landscape. It is the free-runners’ fondness for catapulting themselves at dangerous heights over anxiety-inducing distances that has brought them notoriety on an international level.
“Le Parkour – or the Art of Movement – is a way of using the obstacles found in one’s path to perform jumps and acrobatics…Everything must combine speed, fluidity, aesthetics and originality.”
~ David Belle
