Parkour

Parkour is a video game concept

Parkour is a type of athleticism that involves going from point A to point B as quickly and efficiently as possible.

Overview


Parkour, from the French parcours (course or route), can be considered a running style, to get from A to B as quickly and efficiently as possible. Overcoming all obstacles in one's path using techniques such as vaulting, jumping, climbing and balancing. Made known by David Belle and inspired by his father's teachings, it is as much a mental discipline as it is a physical one, similar to a martial art, or self-defense.  Male parkour practitioners are recognized as traceurs and female as traceuses.

Freerunning and l'art du déplacement are aesthetic forms of movement derived from the core motions Parkour, including acrobatic flips and tricks.
