Not from what the creator of MovNat says in the article comments: "MovNat is a retooling, a modern and improved version of Methode Naturelle, in any case a much more comprehensive natural movement training than parkour, which is a specialized version of Methode Naturelle. Despite what [some] affirm, swimming has never been part of parkour (I am friend with David Belle, founder of parkour, and he barely knows how to swim, what do you deduct?). Lifting, carrying, throwing, catching and defending are not part of that discipline either, which is a lot of truly indispensable..."

"...and potentially vital natural movement capacities missing. I have trained many parkour practitioners worldwide, including David Belle or Thomas Couetdic and all have been really challenged in all the missing capacities mentioned and that’s why all of them have had a blast experiencing MovNat :-). So no, parkour and MovNat are not the same thing ;-)."

I agree with the creator of MovNat that parkour is a specialized form of MovNat but the philosophies appear to be the same, also i attribute parkour to urban environments while this guy is talking about being in nature
I think parkour is well suited for an urban area but not in an natural setting MovNat would be good for nature but not as well suited for a city
It all depends on where you are
