Reviews for Essential Parkour Training: Basic Parkour Strength and Movement

Rainier 5.0 out of 5 stars Simple but informative Reviewed in the United States on February 2, 2021 Verified Purchase I like this book because it is simple and very basic - just what I wanted. I don't have access to a parkour group or teacher, and really wanted to learn some parkour techniques to combine with other self-defense techniques. Being able to run away safely, especially if there are obstacles, may make all the difference in a horrible situation. I know many people think of parkour as something very flexible and athletic young people do for fun, but if you look at the techniques, they can easily be useful in escaping a fire on a second floor, or running away from someone when there are obstacles in your path. I take knowledge from any source if it is useful. This is a good source. Zeck 5.0 out of 5 stars Great book to read to learn parkour Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2020 Verified Purchase I liked the images that show step-by-step instructions on how to parkour. It breaks down the info into easy to digest bits. A good, quality book. JulyP 4.0 out of 5 stars Good read Reviewed in the United States on November 6, 2019 Good informative book.
