The Art of Parkour

Posted in Uncategorized at 8:51 pm by alexis

Last year as a final project for French my friend and i completed a project on French culture. We researched traditional French foods, popular music, and even French super models. However, we also found something else, which i found to be most interesting; Parkour.

The most prominent traceur today, also the called “the father of parkour,” is a man named David Belle. Here is a commercial with David Belle for BBC, here is another one that adds a little humor :)
Here is a video, it’s not the most amazing one i’ve seen but it gives some information on this discipline. i would only suggest watching the first3 min or so of it because it gets boring after a while. more videos.
