We know there are a ton of great training places all across America and we'd like to know about them! That way anyone, no matter where they find themselves,whether it be in the U.S or even abroad will be able to come and see where the local traceurs train. 

 All you have to do is take a couple pictures and do a small write up following the format you see on some of the spots already up on the map and I'll put it up on the APK hotspots map for all to see! 

 See below if you wish to contribute! 


View American Parkour Hotspots in a larger map

The map is a work in progress but this is the general key

---- General Training Hotspot  

----Schools good for training

----Usual Eating Places during Training sessions, Jams, etc.

----Groups that train in that Area 



Would you like to contribute to the map?

Please include the following information:

  • What does it look like? Include 3 or 4 pictures.
  • Where is it? (Address if possible)
  • What kind of obstacles can you find there?
  • What is security like?
  • Which days are the best to train there.

13. 10-09-2008 14:16

does any1 live in nyc that i can train parkour wit ???

14. 10-13-2008 10:03

people dont seem to realize that you can pk just about anywhere. if i were to put every good spot ive found on here it would be too crowded. if you cant find a spot then go downtown. if you cant go downtown find a skate park or a playground and if you live way out in the middle of nowhere you can still make a makeshift course. you just have to learn to look at things through different eyes then your used to. if you still cant find a spot. tell me ur situation and i may be able to help you

15. 11-03-2008 10:51

33. 12-04-2008 08:18

Ahhhh sorry guys! I'm the one in charge of the map. If you can't find a hotspot near your area, it's because we haven't gotten any submissions. It was a little disorganized before but I've taken up the lead and I'll be promoting this a lot more. The more hotspots you submit, the better this map will become. So go ahead and read the instructions up top and let the submitting begin!!! THANK YOU ALL!

34. 12-04-2008 11:52
