The Beginning for Me

Ok i started a blog for a number of reasons this Blog is about my parkour progression and other things to do with me or with parkour, i will update the Blog every week.

Ok for me my parkour journey started in January 2005 i was going though a tough time at home school cadets everywhere i was up late on night playing the ps2 i turned it off and on channel 4 i saw something that caught me eye i was impressed with what i saw the programme was Jump Britain and it was a programme on Free Running what really inspired me was John Kerr (Kerbie) what he said about how it had changed him.

It started from there i talked with friends about it around March time after spreading the word mys3elf and a mate of mine John Dickson set up a group called The Ramsgate Traceurs it had around 10 of us from school, cadets etc it soon grew at the time we all were new and it was just have fun muck around in the summer we changed our name to Ramsgate Parkour Krew we were all improving but were getting injures, people were taking the piss out of us but i didn’t care cos i felt good, i fractured my radius and was in a cast for 6 weeks i felt week mentally and physically and wanted to give it all up but i felt i have come this far love what i am doing and this is for me so i carried on the RPK spilt up members doing their own things noone knew what was going on.

In the winter training was hard but i met some Russian students who were over here to learn English they were more experienced and taught me and some of the RPK a lot i learned some movements they were called White Flying Angels after i realised if i want to progress i have to learn more and train more with other people i checked out forums websites learning more and more and put it into my training i wanted to pass on my knowledge on how parkour had helped me and what i learnt to others.
