The Bristol Parkour organisation have been leading the community in the city since 2005, organising training days, meetings, events and helping to direct and teach new and young athletes.
The community in Bristol is varied and wide, the age group engaging in the sport ranges from around 14-35, though the majority of practitioners are in their teens there are many older people now getting involved. There is a real sense of comradery in training at the weekly jams, everyone is friendly and welcoming and willing to help anyone start or develop their skills.
Ask any of the regulars and they'll tell you that respect is given to those who put in effort, try hard and who are dedicated more so than anyone who is naturally gifted.
