Well be at the Swing a Ring Day event tomorrow, over by the Henry Hudson parkway, and 105th street. Things kick off at 1PM. Come out and have a great time.
The news, full of weirdness about the description of parkour, from Variety, is about the film getting a new writer. It goes on to say that Channing Tatum is no longer attached, but its still about bank robbers, whose game is so tight that they are somehow going to out run the NYPD's bullets... more than once Im guessing.
"Studio's been developing the project since 2007 when it bought a pitch preemptively from Kevin Lund and T.J. Scott around a pair of jumpers who use their skills in heists. Channing Tatum was attached to star at that point but is no longer involved."
Well, lets see what happens. I say their alter egos should ride fixed gear bikes to their loft in Bedford. That would rule so hard.
April 22 is Earth Day, so go celebrate by training in the nice weather and screaming out Earth Day with every challenging move. For more info on Earth Day follow the link : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth_Day
Parkour Video Magazine first hit the spotlight several years ago as the UKs earliest series of downloadable Parkour videos. Each episode took a look at some of the different individuals who were helping to develop the UK Parkour scene. The original series was immensely popular and featured 'The Cambridge Traceurs', 'The Next Generation', 'The Saiyan Clan' and 'Team Traceur'. Alot has changed since then but PKVM is back and planning to release its all new series of free to watch and download PKVM episodes soon.

Here's a nice video, which feels like a throwback to the days of big moves, as opposed to the tech/flow movement thats been huge lately. Im not saying you should go off and start taking huge drops! Im not.
There's a Thursday evening class in the works. It's going to be the same deal as Wednesday's class. Email to reserve, cash only, it will start at 6:30PM. More news as we work out the details.
