Parkour was introduced to me, like most people, through the internet. A friend introduced me to a few parkour videos in 2007. My first training session, a 1:00am blitz through a nearly abandoned college campus, was the catalyst for what would become an obsession with movement and challenge.

The lack of organization for training by the majority, if not all parkour athletes, is an epidemic. Much of this can be attributed to the constant divide in parkour philosophies, which makes it difficult to determine training goals.
