Dangerously fit is about to roll out a fun and intense new group fitness class, Parkour! You may have seen parkour in action, and haven’t even realized it, in movies such as the 007 flick, “Casino Royale” or “District B13″. Parkour is the art of efficiently moving and interacting with one’s environment, and it is physically and mentally demanding!
Parkour requires it’s practitioners, known as “traceurs” to quickly, powerfully, and efficiently navigate their environment using techniques such as vaults, jumps, and various wall scaling techniques. A traceur uses their trained body, imaginative mind, and courageous spirit to turn their whole world into a playground! I can’t take credit for the following video, but I feel it illustrates nicely what parkour is all about.
Parkour training can be appropriate and adapted to the abilities of nearly anyone, regardless of age or current physical condition, and is an incredibly fun way to get or stay in shape while pushing physical, and mental limits.
Times and locations in Tucson, AZ for these outdoor workouts are still being considered. If you are interested and would like to recommend a convenient time, please feel free do do so in the comments below.
