okay, so I'm not really doing any pressuring


So I didn't really know where to put this, I figured once it was done it would get lost in the abyss of dead threads.

Anyways! I just had a great idea! My dad's the director of parks and recreation for the city of lansing, so I decided to talk him slowly into trying to get parkour into one of the gymnastic class things. It would get the word out on parkour and it would give kids a chance to meet experienced traceurs in a safe area for all of the paranoid parents ((mine...)) I think it's a pretty snazzy idea, any tips on talking to officials ((or parents)) about this stuff?

Kyle Gouch 'Triple K':
 I think its cool...

So I talked to my dad, I asked him first about a class and second about putting up some obstacles in a gym. He told me that there aren't any people in Lansing who do parkour. The conversation ended there and I'm taking it as a yes, if I find some people in this area ;) Write to Murdock!

Travis Graves:
Chris Price is in East Lansing at MSU, he's experienced and talented. One thing you really need to consider is who will be teaching these "classes".

Mark J 0.Q:
Yea, that's another one of his concerns. I'm sure as hell not teaching anything. I guess it was more of a spur of the moment kinda thing. I definitely didn't think the hard stuff out. Maybe I can convince him to put in more rails in the city XD
