Parkour: You feel as if you are flying!

Parkour is definitely my favourite outdoor sport. I love using

my body to move freely and to jump obstacles in public places
with only my body and my skill. I also climb and run. Parkour
can be a hobby, an extreme sport, or an art. In Parkour, you use
your body to get from one point to another without stopping.

3
Parkour is excellent exercise because it helps you to keep fit and healthy. It makes
you brave and
confident, too. Another good thing about Parkour is that it’s very cheap. You need
to be in good
physical condition, and you need a good pair of running shoes. And that’s all!
However, Parkour can be dangerous. If you’re new to Parkour,
you need to know and understand the different basic moves.
You also need to train a lot so you don’t have accidents.
It can take a long time to become good at Parkour and you
can sometimes hurt yourself, but I think it is a perfect way to
exercise and discover your body’s potential. Try it! You feel as
if you are flying.
