A Place for Traceurs in Washington State to Connect ...

The essence of parkour can be stated simply: it is the art of overcoming obstacles as swiftly and efficiently as possible using only your body. The fundamentals include running, jumping, and climbing and we build on these fundamentals to improve our ability to pass over, under, around and through obstacles with more complex movements.
You can learn more about Parkour here.

Washington Parkour is a community of traceurs (parkour practitioners) who connect online and in person to train, discuss and share knowledge about the world of parkour. We practice in the urban and natural environments and encourage creativity, safety, self-discipline, and respect for the community in the practice of parkour. We welcome anyone regardless of experience.

Washington Parkour is a proud member of the Parkour Visions community and an American Parkour affiliate.

Parkour Summit 2010 August 13th-15th in Seattle

Something great is happening this year for the National Parkour Jam. Because of the great growth Parkour has been seeing, Parkour Visions is cooking up something more than the average jam. While there will certainly be training for our bodies, there will be an emphasis this year on training for our minds with seminars and discussions, as well as community building. The main events will be from Friday, August 13th to Sunday, August 15th, but there will also be training sessions going on during that week. More information and registration can be found at Parkour Visions. The event also has a Facebook Event page if you'd like to add it to your event calendar on Facebook. You can also discuss the event in the forums!
