Me and Jeaux are in Hammond and Schererville, and I know "Aladdin" is in Gary.
Any one else??

Hey guys, what's up? I'm from Crown Point, but the St. John township area, so right next to Schererville. I've been looking into parkour for a little while, and I'd like to try it out. Let me know if you'd be willing to let me hang out with you guys and show me some moves. I hurdled for 4 years in high school, so I've got pretty good flexibility, core, and leg strength. I need someone to show me how to do things right. Thanks!

do you go to school, because there are a bunch of us at Purdue Cal. Do you have transportation, and when are you available? we'll be glad to show you some things just need some more info.

hurdler9488 · « **Reply #9 on:** July 24, 2008, 03:46:55 PM »

Yeah, but I go to school in Texas. So I'm usually around here during the summer or winter breaks. I've got a car and I'm usually available Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays after 4:15. I actually work a few streets north of Purdue Cal. I'm free pretty much all weekend though. Thanks!

ElDueno · « **Reply #10 on:** July 24, 2008, 10:32:03 PM »

I too am interested in learning parkour. I did gymnastics for many years as a kid and i've been doing track/cross country stuff since middle school.

So, fitness shouldn't be an issue, form however........definately is.

I'm a buddy of hurdler and i do attend Purdue Calumet. I am not taking any summer classes but am signed up for the fall.

vrai · « **Reply #11 on:** July 25, 2008, 08:07:17 AM »

This is all good news. I go to PUC too and start in the fall.

Me and Aladdin are lookin to start a PK club there, we just need more
interested and dedicated people, and you sound like one of 'em!

If you ever wanna go train, I know >many< great locations.
I usually train at PUC. I don't go on Mondays or Wednesdays, but
every other day I'm out practicing parkour. Literally, every day but mon and wed.

Call me if you feel like going to train sometime:

I live in Elkhart, which is about 30 minutes east of South Bend. Not quite NW Indiana, but close. I'm a complete greener, so if anyone is in the area and would be interested in training with me regularly, please get in touch with me and we'll talk.

Dylan "Feral" Cashbaugh · « **Reply #15 on:** October 20, 2008, 11:10:14 AM »

Hey, Chris. I currently go IU Bloomington but I am originally from South Bend so I go back every now and then and a good amount of the summer so maybe sometime that I go back I will let you know and we can do some training together. I know one other person from South Bend that I train with but as far as I am aware, we are about the only people in the south bend/elkhart area that do parkour. Do you know of any others?

Chris Howard · « **Reply #16 on:** October 23, 2008, 12:21:07 AM »

Nope, no others that I know of.

To tell the truth, with winter coming on quick in Elkhart/South Bend (you know how it is if you're from the area) I'm gonna have to focus all of my early training on strength and endurance gains... once it warms up I'll start going out and learning to move the PK way. UNLESS there are gymnastics facilities in the area that I'm not aware of, some place that I could do indoor training. If you're aware of any, please let me know.

Dylan "Feral" Cashbaugh · « **Reply #17 on:** October 23, 2008, 04:52:00 AM »

Gymnastics Michiana. its on home st. in mishawaka. try just googling it. Its a really nice facility, though I haven't done much parkour training there, just a little tricking.

gabriel87 · « **Reply #18 on:** October 23, 2008, 09:41:54 AM »

Nah. I'm the total greener. I'm living in LaPorte right now and focusing on the strength building right now.

Sainaa / Airflow · « **Reply #19 on:** October 23, 2008, 09:52:39 AM »
