“I grew up playing traditional team sports and enjoyed those experiences but when I came across parkour everything paled in comparison. I love being able to play and explore the environment, coming up with and overcoming my own challenges. 
 
I want to be able to leave an active legacy for my children and be able to play with them no matter my age.”
