Moscow, Luzhniki. Summer 2009.
Within the sports festival in Moscow, organized with the support of “Moskomsport”, Parkour Festival held . Special guests of this event were: Chau Belle Dinh, and Laurent Piemontesi (Yamakasi) – founders of the French Academy of Art Du Deplacement (ADD) Now the participants of Majestic Force project. Anyone of the festival participants was given the opportunity to gain experience and skills from them.
We captured on video some moments from the festival and also communicated with guests, so what is left over:
Hi Chiao, what are your impressions of the festival?
Organization is on high-level and people are very friendly. Most of the guys has very good physicаl trained body. But a lot of guys are moving too hard! They are trying by force to execute complex motion, excessively loading their muscles, thus loading the heart, which is extremely undesirable.
When we started practicing, we did not try to overcome an obstacle or make a leap for which we were not ready! You see with the naked eye that the majority is trying to do things for which they aren’t ready physically. If you are not ready so find another way to overcome this obstacle…
What can you advise in parkour practicing?
The first thing is to like parkour trainings and do it for fun! Do not look at others, it will hinder you in the development! Do not try to overtake someone in parkour practicing! Develop your body and know that its possibilities are limitless!
-Thank you very much Ciao! Lauren, what do you think about the event?
I am impressed by the number of participants and their age! The guys are very friendly and I am glad that a lot of them has good physical conditions of their bodies. I was pleased to share with my own experience, to show how we are training and stretching. Work out some of the exercises and movements.
-Lauren, what would you wish our boys involved in parkour?
We train for many years, in a very intense mode and constantly exploring new places. We do not stand on one place and our trainings are focused on results in the future. We get the pleasure from the trainings. Sometimes we participate in various projects and shooting, then we use bandages and protective equipment. You cant buy your health and a lot of people that are coming in parkour do not understand that. You have to train incrementally increasing your physical potential. Some people after couple years trainings are trying to make insane jumps, which are badly affected the health in the future! They destroy their potential for development. It is very important to develop dynamically, passing each stage and the result will exceed all expectations. Love parkour and training with the pleasure.
