Introduction

 
A general page about parkour.  In the future this page will contain dicussion pieces, links and media content. You can find all parkour related posts here, and parkour media posts here.
 

 A Theory of Parkour

This is a kernal idea which attempts to address the instinctual connection of parkour; it is not a definition.

 
I believe the attraction of Parkour lies in the dualistic nature of the human condition: predator and prey. Through this exists the primitive mechanism known as fight or flight. While numerous sports throughout history have popularised fight, Parkour is perhaps the first Western sport to focus purely on flight. In later weeks you'll be able to read more about this when I release my Parkour think piece.
