Hi everyone, my names Avery.

I live in Eagle, Idaho, which is kinda a suburb to Boise, the capitol.

Im very new to parkour and only know 1 person at my school who does parkour/freerun.

I love playing tf2, watching movies, and hanging with my friends.

Nice to meet you all.

Hey everybody, my name is Parker, I'm 18, and I love jumping over stuff. I hail from Arizona and I'm currently living on campus at ASU. I've been running around and doing what I love for about a year or so now, just here and there. I've decided to rededicate my interest in Parkour recently, hence myself being here. So...... Hi APK!

Sweet! ASU West or Main?

One guy just posted the other day from ASU West in the Arizona Local Board... forum... thingy. You guys should definitely hook up and train some time, or you can train with any of us in Phoenix--let me know if you're interested.

If you're at ASU Main in Tempe, I think there's a pretty strong PK scene over there; they're about to start PK classes on campus, so you should get involved if that's where you're at.

In any case, head over to arizonaparkour.com and introduce yourself, cause there's bound to be someone near you.

ASU Main. Dang I didn't know ASU had much of a PK scene, like my friend checked out some old ASU PK club but it wasn't updated for a few years. I'll go check out those links for sure. I'd love to train with someone (like I said I've never done much except for messing around every few nights over the summer). I'd love to get started with someone who could actually help me improve and whatnot. Do you have any more info on the classes at ASU? I looked but couldn't find anything.

The classes haven't been started yet. Francesco is the guy who's trying to get them started, so you can ask him for details on the AZPK forums
Your obstacle is my shortcut.

Hey guys and girls, my name's Stephen.
Location: Titusville (close to Orlando) Florida.
Age: 17
Experience: Childhood...
I just started training on my own a short while ago; however, I am quite athletic and have always had a passion for climbing obstacles and anything I could get my hands on. I'm looking forward to learning a lot and meeting new people especially since I can't find anyone in my area so far. This place looks sweet. See you all around.

Howdy!
I am Megan aka Meganite from College Station, TX. (well I'm not exactly from there, but it's a long story)

Just recently got interested in Parkour again after playing Mirror's Edge. I had heard of it before, but never really had time to practice. Is there anyone in my area I can be hooked up with?

I live in Greensburg, IN ( may soon be moving to Oahu, HI for school )
 I am brand new to the whole Parkour thing so i look forward to starting my training and becoming a better person. This site really helped me learn more about what Parkour and free running are, as well as how positive the whole APK community is.

Hey,
My name is Robby, I'm from the Clovis area of New Mexico.  I am currently enlisted in the Air Force, and actually just started out.  I don't currently hang out with anyone from the site, but hopefully soon!  If anyone from Lubbock TX, Roswell NM, or anywhere close wants to help train me and all that good stuff, hit me up!  I posted my number on the Texas and New Mexico forum.
Any help would be appreciated.

By the way..
Are Puma's any good for Parkour?  I tried googling it, but nothing came up lol.

Hi.  I'm a gymnast and gymnastics coach from SoCal.  I just play around with free running.  You free runners are insane!  We gymnasts use mats  ;)

This site's great.
