When I sat down and created the world of ION, I wanted an
equalizer for humans—without making them into superheroes. Being the gamer that
I am, lamented how it wasn't possible for people to do what the MC of video
game, Assassin's Creed, could. My brilliant husband proved my wrong and sat me
down in front of my first Parkour video.
Parkour, also known as free running, is practiced in urban
areas. It is part martial art and part philosophy. It is amazing to watch the discipline,
dedication, confidence and the fearlessness of these athletes. I would probably
pee myself at some of the heights involved.
What I loved the most was you didn't have to be super human
to practice it and exactly what I was looking for.
I've attached a 'how to' video which was really good at
breaking down the steps and making the sport look more feasible to the average
Joe. Tomorrow I will go into the origin of Parkour. How far back does the
practice go??
