Do we have a parkour or freerunning club? If not, I certainly want to start one up. Watching all these videos on Youtube, including the one that I linked, with people jumping up corners and bouncing off walls look so awesome and I want to start doing things like that. I already know a few friends who are interested but I want to know if anyone else, in general, here at UMBC wants to help form one. This will DEFINITELY help people get into shape and stay active, including me.
Obviously, I don't want people to expect to start jumping off the AOK Library as their first lesson. Just flips, wall climbs, and anything you can creatively do with your body in a jungle gym setting with mats that are AT LEAST 2 ft thick. However, expect that there may muscle pain and possible injury involved if not done properly.
If you want to join, comment saying "I'm in," "I'm down," "I'm diggin' it," etc. If you want help me form the club and/or know some people that can instruct the club, specify in your comment as well.
