No discipline requires mastery of jumping technique, form and capability quite like parkour. This has led to the jumping methods of parkour being studied by sports scientists around the world as it becomes clear that its biomechanics and methods of impact absorption are reshaping what we believed the human body is capable of.
Humans are fantastic jumpers, due to the anatomy of our highly mobile hip complex, long lower limbs and sophisticated ankle joints. Jumping is a holistic and explosive movement engaging every part of the body, and is one of the most effective ways to increase your power, strength, coordination, agility, flexibility and spatial awareness. Further, the maintenance of fast-twitch muscle fibres is vital in promoting longevity and pushing back the effects of aging.
Jumping is in many ways a neglected skill by so many active people and this workshop will help you rediscover its functional effectiveness and usefulness in training. You will come away feeling truly empowered knowing just what you can do with your jump.
The Master Your Movement workshop series, by Parkour Generations founder Dan Edwardes, arise from a lifetime of experience of various training modalities spanning parkour, the martial arts, fitness and practical movement skills. The seminars introduce an entire continuum of movement progressions from prone to low gait to standing and back, building on healthy kinetic patterns to create free, instinctive and functional application of the movements which can then be integrated into any discipline.
