June is Creativity Month!! We have David Belle's contest running right now, and Demon is challenging us to once again take a look around and get more creative about the way we move. Creativity Challenge This month’s drill is simple. It is a call out to the Parkour scene as a whole. The majority of videos nowadays contain little creativity and originality. What does this tell me about the majority of the Parkour scene? There is a lack of creativity and originality. Instead of being creative and truly adapting to the environment, the majority of people are limited in their Parkour vision. Too many people limit themselves to what they see in videos and from other people. Read more for the challenge and the video.
The Challenge: - Find a small area with several obstacles. By small, I mean something that can fit in the frame of a camera from about 20 feet away. - Spend several hours in the area doing every possible movement you can. Adapt to your environment and come up with creative and unique movements and combinations. - Film about thirty seconds of what you came up with and share it online with the Parkour community. Even if everything you do is not Parkour, you will still be training yourself to be more creative and to see more opportunities for movement. In addition, all the different combinations and variations are bound to improve your agility, step planning, ability to link movements, and much more. I hope everyone will choose to take part in this month’s drill because I think it has become a big problem in the Parkour community. Please take the time to try this drill and post up a short video if possible. Watch the video. (please right-click and "save as") |
