Parcour, also known as freerunning, is an urban movement discipline that originated in France in the late 1980s by David Belle. David and his friends re-enacted special forces training from his father in the urban concrete jungle of Lisses, FRANCE.

It’s title with French origins means, a course, a path or way through, essentially to get from point A to B as efficiently and creatively as possible. It involves navigating obstacles in the environment with speed and efficiency, using a combination of running, climbing, swinging, vaulting, and jumping.

Parcour isn’t just about physical skill; it’s an art of movement that engages the mind, body, and spirit.
