SHANE-D-PAIN Posted August 12, 2005 Share Posted August 12, 2005 I have made this thread to let everyone know about the Parkour 'Jams' being held in Sheffield. We are aware that many people are interested in taking up Parkour but dont know how to get started and are a little put off by doing it on their own! Well, there is, infact, a decent sized group of people already doing it in Sheffield and we want even more to join us! If you would like any particular info on anything then please dont hesitate to send me a PM, thats what they are there for afterall. If you are unsure about what exactly parkour is then please checkout http://www.parkour.com & http://www.urbanfreeflow.com ( the latter has some nice tutorials too ) Anyway, back to the point, we are meeting tomorrow ( Saturday the 13th of August 2005 ) - We meet at the Odeon in Town at around 11-12.30 and cover some of the well known landmarks in Sheffield alongside quite a few of the best hidden spots. Its always a friendly environment and everyone is willing to help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midday obviously, who the bloody hell would go out in town at mid night? Theres too many people like you around..... And yeah anyone can come, no matter the skill level or lack of it, as long as you actually do something of course! We will do our best to teach you. We are meeting again this Saturday, same time, same place.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pro_moto_r Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 glad to hear that you are accepting of total novices!! i have been wanting to try parkour for a while now, but was put off by doing it by alone, breaking a leg and being in agony in a gutter somewhere!! im 25 and would really like to give it a go - when are you next meeting and where?(i did a bit of research on Northernparkour.com and understand that there is no freerunning/parkour at the Odeon anymore) cheers al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
