Agreed. The Stephane documentary is an absolute must.

Jump Westminster Jump Westminster is great for beginners. It's got the inspiring stuff at the beginning, and then all the footage of kids training. You're like "If that fat kid can do that, so can I."

I think that Gameyy's video about having fun is definitely a must see video. I completely agree with him about how theres no point in it if your not having fun. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YLmf_cyiccc

Okay... Jump Westminster. WOW.
I have a new mission in life. No joke.
As a teacher, I was hoping to start a PK club at my school (but then I changed schools so I have to start over at the new school). However now, I'm thinking of partnering up with a couple of youth community centers and doing something like this in my city. *gears in the head are turning*
Yup... this is something I absolutely need to do.

I cannot seem to get the Stephane documentary to work. I downloaded it but when I try to open it in Windows Media Player it gives me a message about the extension being different from the file type or something like that.
Anybody else have this trouble or know how to fix it? Thanks.
Great videos by the way!

i really like the chase video, that's really cool. it seemed like the people chasing belle were pretty good at PK too, but not as good as belle.
Hurry Belle, it's the PK police!

I believe that by continually watching good technique and form in Parkour you will naturally adapt your motions to replicate what you have seen. This article ( http://www.golfonline.com/golfonline/features/features/article/0,17742,1533067,00.html) demonstrates what I'm talking about, though I'm sure you all agree with me. It's important to observe the proper movements in Parkour so that you don't end up like those pathetic UK kids on youtube who recklessly run and jump around, taking pride in the fact that they are destroying their bodies (I know first hand that there are plenty of Americans too). Watch good videos when you cannot train, and note moves that these well trained traceurs make. Though they have trained heavily for many years, it's clear that every traceur can take something positive away. Nice idea Demon.

Here is the link to U$F Vol 3: http://www.urbanfreeflow.com/u_dollar_f/u_dollar_f3.htmIt was listed above, but with no link. Being new to Parkour I found the interview with Stephane very interesting. He recounts his original training, giving examples, and insight into the philosophy of Parkour. His comments are inspiring and sobering. Very much in line with Blane's Dilution article. It's a must see. Blane's Dilution article is revealing and very good for any level traceur to read (though it's probably targeted at budding traceurs like myself).
