I love how this doesn't feel like gymnastics vs parkour type thing. Just a genuine appreciation for each others skills and sports.

I appreciate how everyone respects each other's abilities here. The ladies encourage the guys and the men respect the ladies and their skills. It's lovely to see.

Love how fearless the guys are, and how genuinely interested they are in trying something new and in learning.

I feel like if I were to learn both gymnastics and parkour I'd become one of humanity's most flexible and agile humans.

I love how the dudes ask like really targeted questions to make sure they have the movement right, like when they were asking about how extended their arms should be. It just shows how knowledgeable both groups are.
