Is there any equipment cost, membership fee, or exclusive conditions required for my child to do Parkour?
A. One of the things we love about Parkour is that you only need one piece of equipment to do it – yourself. Parkour is about using the human body to overcome obstacles. You don’t need expensive uniforms because it isn’t a team sport, and you don’t have to pay any membership fees because there is no official Parkour club. We do recommend good shoes (visit this thread for an ongoing discussion) but any old sneakers will do if your child is just starting out. There are no limits on who can do Parkour. Any event posted on a PNWPA-affiliated website – such as washingtonparkour.com – is open to everybody regardless of race, gender, religion, age, nationality, sexual orientation, etc., etc.
