new to the scene
«

greetings, i'm brand new to parkour, i've been absolutely captivated by it though, i'm an avid rock climber but in no way am i competitive about it, i always enjoyed it because of the act of movement on the rock, once i saw parkour, i realized that i'm more fascinated with the movement of the human body in general
i was curious how much i might be capable of, like what i should start practicing, i slackline and rock climb alot
i weigh 165 pounds and am around 6'2"
i have a general idea of what my body is capable of but i figured it would be a good idea to ask some seasoned veterans on this matter as well
*just an aside, i am currently residing in the charlotte area about a 10 minute walk from UNCC, anyone from around there who is experienced in parkour at all, i would appreciate it if you could contact me so i might be able to learn from you, much thanks*

You will probably be relatively good at...the climbing parts of Parkour! I also came from a climbing background, and I understand where you're coming from. Take your time, and build up slowly to the jumps etc. and you'll do fine!
Good luck!
