This summer could mark Parkour history.  The non-profit organization Parkour Visions, based in Seattle, Washington, will be hosting a Parkour summit in early August.  A summit, in the sporting world, is a multi-day event consisting of seminars and conferences where esteemed coaches, researchers, scientists, etc. in the community share their findings, their ideas, and their approaches.  Tyson Cecka and Rafe Kelley have done an amazing job of pooling together some of the greatest minds in the Parkour community, with the speaking roster being:

• Rafe Kelley – Parkour Visions lead instructor – presenting on how to program parkour training, both for a teaching and personal practice.
