FREE-RUNNING / Le Parkour (the Art of Movement)
Free runnersThe sexiest extreme sport has hit the streets!

Free running in ParisInvented 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
