I've only been actively training for about a year, but I have seen excellent progress over this time; largely thanks to my friends in LPK. I love to pass on knowledge that has been passed on to me. That's the only way that man ever truly builds something great.

[interstice]

Name: Josh Selter

Age: 23

Area: Louisville, KY (J-Town)

Local Group: Louisville Parkour (MetaL)

About Me: I'm pretty new to Parkour, but it has really captivated and motivated me, and is something I plan on devoting a lot of time to. Just thought I'd say hey and connect with everyone, and hopefully learn something from those of you that have more experience than myself (Which I'd imagine is everyone here, lol). I've been trying to get more physically fit for this, and in the past five months have gone from 315 down to 260, so I'm a work in progress and hopefully I'll be able to hang. Being new to the scene I really don't know how many beginners there are in the area, I kinda assumed everyone would be out of my league. Hopefully I'll get a chance to meet some of you over the coming months.

Until then,

Josh
