parkour by: traceur4life
parkour is using freedom of movement and the body to overcome any and all obstacles in ones environment. A traceur(male who does parkour) or traceuse(female who does parkour) uses the freedom of movement to their advantage, while freerunners use that freedom of movement to express their emotions through acrobatic twists and flips. Parkour is about getting from point A to point B as fast, efficient and fluidly as possible while using the freedom of movement i mentioned above.
