Parkour is an art of movement in which you train the body and mind to overcome obstacles. The application of parkour is efficient traversal when circumstance necessitates it, such as being chased, or needing to reach a destination. Aside from the physical benefits, many people find training parkour develops mental clarity, confidence, self-discipline, the ability to deal with fear, and many other mental gains. -http://www.americanparkour.com/
