Summer plans
Everyone feels the upcoming warmth of summer. The Great Oracle of the Temple of the Golden Sun (me) has come to a decision: let this summer be the time for parkour.
Parkour is a discipline of French origin that embraces the art of moving. Participants aim to pass obstacles in their environment, both natural and man made, rapidly and fluidly. One moves from A to B, in an uninterrupted forward motion, whether it is over, under, through or around an environmental object. Such movement may come in the form of jumping, climbing, running or other complicated skills. The key is to embrace the harmony between the obstacle and individual, moving elegantly and beautifully.
Participants of Parkour share a common goal to adapt to any environment and alter their movements in any situation making it possible for any object to be overcome by human abilities. Parkour harmoniously combines physical agility and quick thinking, thus leading to improvisation.
