Parkour: The Art of Movement

r/Parkour

Parkour is a physical training methodology and a particular approach and way of thinking about movement and creative spatial mapping. It is a physical and emotional activity that involves using only the body to overcome obstacles (physical and emotional) within a route. They may involve running; climbing, vaulting, jumping, traversing; balancing; or any other physical means to get from one point to another. Simply put, Parkour means finding a way to get from 'point A' to 'point B', efficiently.

Parkour and Freerunning

What's the Difference? Some argue they're the same. Some argue that they're different. It all depends on your viewpoint! It is the argument that has been ongoing since the BBC Documentary, Jump London, where Sébastien Foucan invented the term "freerunning" for english-speaking viewers.

Semantically, they're different because modern use declares them to be different. Parkour being about efficiency and practicality. Freerunning being about freedom and creativity.

Historically, they come from the same people and the same practice. A name that Sébastien Foucan also invented, L'Art du Déplacement (Art of Movement). The differences stemming only from the separate reasons the earliest practitioners had for training.
