Parkour and Free running Videos

The video section of our site highlights some videos which we feel are good examples of Parkour and free running. The videos are broken into categories to distinguish between Parkour Videos, Free Running Videos, and other videos. Parkour Videos means videos which contain mostly parkour movement, as it is nigh impossible to capture true spontinaeity on film, most "parkour videos" contain careful planning, and often movement which isn't truly in the spirit of Parkour.

  • Artistic / Creative  ( 4 items )

    Artistic / Creative Videos

    The Parkour and free running communities are rife with extremely creative people, no coincidence as Parkour and freerunning require a bit of free thinking, breaking the normal boundaries of cattle-prod society. These videos are creative works, wether based on actual Parkour or free running footage, or based solely on the artist's imagination.
  • Parkour  ( 17 items )

    Parkour Videos

    THese videos contain primarily Parkour, or as much as Parkour can be captured on film. Parkour is a spontaneous thing, video is a planned thing. Parkour is an intention, video shows action and motion. Anyway, these "parkour videos" give you the basic idea, when combined with a proper understanding of what Parkour is.
  • Freerunning  ( 9 items )

    Free running Videos

    Free running is a way of moving, a way of interacting with your environment, it is also a mindset. In free running, you're free to do as you please, as the name implies, the goal may be fun, self improvement, or for show. Free running can be a challenging way to build characteristics like balance, coordination and self-confidence. Most videos of "Parkour" actually turn out to be videos of Free running, since it is nearly impossible to capture the essense of purpose which defines parkour on film.
  • Reference / Tutorial  ( 1 items )

    Reference / Tutorials Videos

    These videos are good to show certain aspects of Parkour and free running. They either contain "standards" in that there are besic movements in Pakrour and Freerunning which occur time and time again and can be drilled for proficieny, or the video itself may be a standard, as we hope to get some of David Belle's calssic videos up here.
