What Clothes & Shoes Should You Wear? | Parkour

My name is Ann Kaczka, I've been practicing Parkour since 2007. My first day training was with David Belle at the New Yorker festival. And since then I've trained solo in Thailand, climbing trees on the streets of London and Paris. And now I'm back in New York City. And today I'm here to talk to you about Parkour.

So what to wear when your training Parkour: It does depend and vary from person to person. Some people feel comfortable exercising in really baggy sweatpants while, others like myself, I do prefer to exercise in sort-of tights, spandex bottoms and tight tops just so that it doesn't snag on things. But It does vary, wear whats right for you and what works for you.

Ladies, please just do yourself a favor and buy a really good sports bra. The importance is so paramount; those tissues stretch and they do not stretch back. So try and find one with molded cups that's going to support you, thats made for a high impact activity like running or horse-back riding-Spend a little bit of extra money, replace it every six-twelve months. Your going to find, the investment is so worth it. Stay away from low-impact Yoga tops. Stay away from regular sports bra's that won't support you as much as you need. Jump around in the fitting room, go try a whole bunch on; make it into a day-wide adventure. It doesn't really matter but, just buy one that really fits and don't wear a normal bra when training. Its going to completely destroy the bra and its not going to give you as much support as you need.

As far as shoes go again, buy what works for you. There have been a lot of shoes out on the market lately that are specifically marketed and tailored towards people who are training Parkour but like I said, find what works for you. Generally, you want to find something thats pretty flexible, you want to find something thats light fit-obviously something that fits your foot and something thats grippy as well.

@StorrorBlog Guys know to wear sweatpants, that's not worth mentioning, this was a good chance to educate women who want to train.

@woody369 yeah but pk is about self discovery. you dont really need to be told what to do or wear. its at a point where you dont these videos that waste our time. oh ya this prolly isnt the first physical activity that a girl has done.

@TrueInnovator159 nobody is the person that invented parkour, you cant say that someone invented walking for an example

[angelofdeath]

[TheLaserRealm]

Am I the only one who wears jeans for parkour?

[SamCromerctrl]

this prolly isnt the first time a girl has done a physical activity, so the minute talking about bras was pointless.

[psemek]

how to be an assasin = wear a special bra PROBLEM SOLVED

[canondavinci]

Vaya puta mierda: todo el mundo sabe que para hacer parkour se utiliza un chándal 6XL y las kalenji del decathlon. (If you can't understand, google traductor)

[XthexhunterX]

Actually, parkour was invented by a French fireman a LONG time ago.

[mrspaceinvader]

Again you didnt supply with much accept how to get a bra which was about 70% of the video....

[TrueInnovator]

This video is for women, not men. We men aren't fucking stupid when it comes to parkour or free running, men invented it, so there isn't reason for you to be talking about damn clothes or what kind of pants to wear either. This video is misleading because you talk about bras. You need to rename it to "What to Wear for Parkour as a Female". Take out the shoes part in the title too. Because clearly if your going to "wear" something for parkour, you're gonna have to need shoes. Herpaderp...

I'm sorry, but I'm a grown man and I can conduct my own actions at my own discretion. I don't need to be careful when clearly others agree with my statement. This video is poorly titled and poorly executed. You're talking to an individual who does not coincide or *care* for political correctness or society's basic norms such as "OH DON'T OFFEND someone! You might hurt their feelings!" If a feminist is hurt by my remark, then boohoo. Go cry, I don't care. I DISLIKE feminists anyways. Good day.
