how to master each level of Parkour

[@TheJasonPaul]

not sure how I feel about this talk + chill training style of video now that it's all done. I liked making it, so that's sweet. Was is enjoyable for you guys? Try more of the same? If yes, any topics you'd like to talk about?

[@mirco_geremia]

nice! you mentioned it, but self-consciousness and interacting with muggles could be a nice topic for this kind of video

[@lucasboisneau4256]

I really enjoyed it, it felt poetic. And the intimacy feeling is a good way to interact with the audience I think, we are used to seeing the final result on Instagram, clips of big tricks and tend to forget the journey to get there. I discovered parkour a long time ago and really enjoyed it, I trained in a gymnastics gym but it was hard for me to push myself to learn new tricks and get out of my confort zone. Especially outside I felt quite overwhelmed by the task of finding something to do, and found it hard not to be comparing my movement with what I saw on internet. As a result I haven't progressed that much, partly because of injuries but I'm trying to get back into it, build strength and this type of video is a good reminder that the most important is to have fun, challenge yourself and small step by small step we can cover a long distance. I will maybe see you at omfg where I will feel like a fraud compared to all the other amazing athletes but it will still be amazing !

[@FiskBurken]

I enjoyed the video a lot with this new style!

[@TheJasonPaul]

@@lucasboisneau4256 so true, I feel like there's a bit of a mis-match between Parkour on Instagram and how it's enjoyed in real life. Hope to balance the scales a bit on here :)

[@TheJasonPaul]

@@lucasboisneau4256 OMFG! sweet, see you there :D

[@sohamranmale7304]

Yo Jason, I used to watch your and Pashas videos 5-6 years ago when I was just a fascinated 12 year old addicted to climbing and jumping, before school and life got serious. I just got recommended this video now and the nostalgia hits different. It's really cool to see the way your content has progressed and your love for the sport has remained unchanged. Cheers.

[@TheJasonPaul]

That’s so sweet to hear man 😊🙏🏻 hope you still get to embrace the kid by going out and moving or at least carry that spirit into whatever else you are up to now 😁

[@sohamranmale7304]

@@TheJasonPaul My love for movement is here to stay! Though now it's mainly martial arts, the creativity of freerunning you guys instilled in me really comes through. Keep inspiring bro ❤️

[@TheJasonPaul]

So glad to hear that 😊

[@adept.anderson]

Bro the trick/movement dysmorphia is the realist thing ever 😂💀 I've never heard someone describe it like that!

[@TheJasonPaul]

Ahaha ah man, I had it the hardest with double fulls. Move looked so dope until the day I learned it

[@aharoni1000]

Thanks man for this new series. So fun to watch, and soooo "real life info" packed in to these videos. Danke!!!

[@TheJasonPaul]

Glad you liked it!

[@endlesssmile8905]

I used to be an intermediate/advanced buuuuuuuuuuuut after a looooooooong break I think I will be starting my journey from the beginners level again hahah :D Of course the body has it's own memory so it wouldn't take me that long to reach the level I was at. To be honest I am excited about starting all over because just like in life, in parkour as well, it's all about enjoying the journey and not solely focusing on the destination. Parkour is not just a sport it is an art and also a form of therapy. ♥ Thanks for the inspiration Jason. It is always a treat to watch your videos.

[@TheJasonPaul]

Agree so much! You just have to let go of the ego and the pressure attached to being at a certain level or being able to do move XYZ. Once that’s gone it’s so fun to even just do the small things. Funny enough those are the sessions I’ll actually end up doing something new in the end 😊

[@NewsWeeklyThe]

This was so pleasing to watch, especially as someone who's been at the advanced level for a while and has been struggling with trick dysmorphia, it's really cool to see you validate that and talk about the big picture

[@TheJasonPaul]

The struggle is real 😁 I always try to remind myself that I’m already way beyond anything I thought I’d ever achieve. When I started the wallspin was the dopest trick ever and even that seemed impossible at the start. It’s easy to forget the magic those moves had once they become second nature.

[@NewsWeeklyThe]

@@TheJasonPaul Wow, thanks so much for this response Jason! It's super amazing to hear such a down to earth and humble perspective from someone who's achieved so much and has inspired my training for the past 6.5 years! After 6 years, I finally feel like I've hit the point in my movement where I'm doing the things which once seemed impossible to me many years ago, and that's a super satisfying feeling which helps to ground me when I'm feeling disappointed about not conquering a challenge or failing a difficult trick. It's really cool to see that you share that perspective. Thank you so much for all the wonderful movement, wisdom, and positivity you've brought to the community ❤️

[@KoninParkourT]

I'm training parkour for a half of year. I think I'm intermediate and its incredible that I train parkour and make progres realy fast but I usualy use step vault, kong, pop, strieds, wall runs, climb ups and rolls. It's easy and i like this amazing feeling of being free when doing pre.

[@TheJasonPaul]

Right on!

[@ahapk]

Your fresh ideas still inspire, and coming from a Parkour old-timer like you, they hold even more weight for me. Keep pushing the boundaries!

[@TheJasonPaul]

Thank you ☺️🙏🏻

[@lukasbleicher4353]

Jason uploading again is a blessing, always enjoy the little life and parkour talks, just like from the vlog days

[@TheJasonPaul]

Thank you 😊 I missed it!

[@meesamabbas6993]

I loved your approach towards parkour. You are the best parkour Coach. There are many parkour athletes who put tutorials on KZbin but your instructions are way more detailed and also includes theory.

[@milos8665]

I'm following your channel now for like 5years. I started parkour when i was 13/14 i remember i wanted to backflip so badly. And learned it pretty quickly. I trained parkour daily until i was i think like 17. Then i suddenly stopped. Now i'm 20 and ofc i still can do sum stuff but i just know how many things i lost thruout the years of not doing parkour cause i lost the drive. I still watch your videos or others on instagram and youtube and i do miss it. I think I'll start again from the ground up and hopefully find the love for the sport again that i had.

[@TheJasonPaul]

It happens to so many people around that age. For most it’s hard to keep hobbies going when life becomes more serious, but it’s never too late to bring the fun stuff back 🙂

[@deafeningsilence5121]

Such a cozy, encouraging video! I really like this style of content and I think you are an excellent fit for it Jason :)

[@TheJasonPaul]

Thanks so much!

[@quentinhaupt5540]

Honestly this video was so much more uplifting than I ever could have expected. My perception of my skill level was so restricting, and what you shared in this countered it in the brightest way possible. So glad to have had your content help my progression all theses years!!!!

[@mbobhpants7205]

I am definitely a beginner I just started and I've always wanted to do it you are a very cool guy and you just find enjoyment in everything and you are very inspirational to me and I believe everyone else who watches:)

[@TheJasonPaul]

Thank you! Definitely check out the beginner guide I released not too long ago 😊

[@mbobhpants7205]

I will check it out but I just got denied by my 2 best friends who I wanted to practice with but watching your videos will keep me from quitting so early also thank you for responding! : )

[@justmovesa]

Nah, this video was a pleasure to watch, man. I didn't know what to expect with it, and titles are always a tricky thing, but I enjoyed the genuine energy coming through-calm, authentic-but still delivering the good message.

[@TheJasonPaul]

☺️🙏🏻

[@ParkourAdventure_98]

I was trapped at the advanced level for many years and felt bored because of stagnation. I trained alone on the same old spots and did the same things all the time. Finally I stopped training parkour for 3 years, because it was no longer fun for me. I come back about month ago and it feels so good after that break. I regained freshness and inside energy to try new things and just having fun of it. Your video is so accurate and I hope, that knowledge it contains will help me to reach master level ( I plan to travel more, train with other people and try new things more often ).

[@TheJasonPaul]

You’re not alone and don’t feel bad for taking some time off, sometimes that’s exactly what you need. I just spent a solid 1-2 years more focused on breakdance and funky moves, now I’m super hyped about OG parkour moves again.

[@ParkourAdventure_98]

​@@TheJasonPaul Exactly. When I quit parkour I started hiking and caving and it was really good time for me. There are many enjoyable things in the world and it's about finding what is good for you in the moment. Thanks again for the video and good luck to you!

Danke! 😄 ist mir nach so einem Kommentar noch mehr eine freude

these videos (this one, the 100 parkour moves ranked and the in depth guide one) have given me kind of a dictionary of tricks to learn. i feel like i'm progressing 100 times faster. thank you!! 🙏

[@TheJasonPaul]

My master plan is all coming together 😚 so happy to hear that!

[@melindamara8802]

As a kid yes I can see what you mean how we did parkour. I do remember liking to use momentum and gravity to my advantage.

[@GaelleArt]

Hi Jason, I just got into Parkour and I love your videos, they are very practical, structured, down to earth and inspiring ! I don't see the link to the free beginner roadmap in the description ? Also, I registered to your online program Takeoff, received the confirmation email but never received the link to the actual course... how long does it take for me to access the program ? Thanks again for taking the time to share your skills and wisdom!

[@TheJasonPaul]

Hey Gaelle, thanks so much for the encouraging words 🥰 I got your email and just sent you new login details. Let me know if this didn’t fix it. Sorry, for the inconvenience and I’m excited to be part your Parkour adventure 😃

[@ZavieM]

I really dug the vibe, emotion, and storytelling in this video. It felt like a chill hang-out with a friend. Also, I think I’m intermediate 🫡

[@TheJasonPaul]

Thanks man, that’s what I was going for 😊🙏🏻

[@Sakaidoesart]

Hey Jason, I definitely enjoy this new video series. I really feel the chilled vibe of you talking about a topic and seeing you try and train some moves. I would love to see some videos with this new approach, where you talk about working on some specific tricks like for example the front flip, cause even though I watched dozens of tutorials, I never achieved it and got discouraged after trying to learn it for some weeks without any progress.

[@TheJasonPaul]

Thank you! I’ll think about that, usually when it comes to covering specific techniques I like a more structured approach. Not sure if it will lend itself to this format. What do you think your problem with the Frontflip is and do you have specific questions/issues?

[@Sakaidoesart]

@@TheJasonPaul Thanks for your reply and I definitely get your point. I feel like I can’t gain enough height even though my vertical jump is relatively decent but once I try to add the rotation it feels impossible to gain height.

[@addyleyva6248]

wow the way you do flips is crazy i love that your so flowy in your movement. coming from a 11 year old. i landed a fount flip for the first time in my life. it got me so nerves, but you did it with ess thats so COOL!!

[@pietropiacenza7685]

hi Jason great video, as always i think your videos are super helpful, right now i’m trying to learn the basic flip and i wondered if you could do a video on them and share your experience thank you have a great weekend

[@TheJasonPaul]

Hey man! I’m kind of hesitant, because there are already tons of videos out there and there are lots of other things I want to talk about first. Maybe next year :)

[@kleenmovement2052]

This is actually spot on! So relevant! So well done!

[@TheJasonPaul]

I’m glad you enjoyed it, I’ll try to never do it again 🤣

[@DuBCraft21]

I really enjoyed the video :) I would say I'm a bit smeared betweeen intermediate and advanced and tickle some of master xD I've been training on and off for about 10 years now but still really struggle with getting over fear and commiting to moves that are outside of my comfort zone as well as learning moves that are awkward for me (for example, I still can't roll of concrete without hurting myself), but at the same time I have a wide vocabulary of moves in the areas I enjoy training and have really started to form my own style that is different from anyone else I train with regularly and sometimes make my own moves that I've never seen anyone else do before. So depending on how you look at it I could either be intermediate or advanced.. I don't think I can actually make the argument I've obtained mastery though. Anyway, great video again! I'm really happy you are making videos again :)

[@TheJasonPaul]

Thank you! So glad to be back on KZbin 😁 you’d be surprised how many seriously good people have gaps in their skills. I know people who can do insane flip precisions, but can’t roll pain free. It’s hard to tell when it’s worth it to go back and relearn something or when it’s not worth the trouble and you’d be better off focusing on what you’re talented at

I love parkour i got interest in parkour when i was little i used to play a parkour games vector was one of that game that game had so many parkour moves beacause of that game i took interest in parkour i also watched Jason Paul and other parkour KZbinrs i always tried to master parkour moves which i watched in social media back then was so much fun but when i came in 9th everything Changed i got busy in my school life i do parkour but not as same as i did in my childhood i miss those days and i wish that i learn more parkour and do fun like i used to do then btw l loved this video as always this was helpful to me thanks Jason Paul ❤

[@quanahlecornu478]

also, you put into words what I could not. I'm intermediate, and am stuck in safety rather than going harder than available. Then again I am an alcoholic, so I'm 2 people. 1 guy just tries while circumstance provides, but never really commits. The other side does full sends and either does some dangerous stuff or full sends and gets injured. I wanna get back to beginner but sober. I'm sorry, but also gonna try. I haven't tried anything in a while.

I would do both to be honest 😆if you’re lucky enough to live close to a gym, I would take advantage of it as much as possible. At the very least to connect with the local community

[@dankgho8584]

If you look into Matt McrCeary, especially some of his older movement, you can find some great inspiration. He has plenty of content probably in similar spots as yours.

[@TheJasonPaul]

True, Matt is a great example. You might enjoy watching some Leo Urban for inspiration as well. Moving in nature is great and fallen over trees are awesome for vault practice 😁 but you also have to be more free in your approach and adapt to the obstacle, instead of relying on set moves

[@jonachristiansen6896]

hey jason, ich think i am on the second level but my big problem is that i dont have the motivation to go outside and train by myself i dont like to train alone

[@TheJasonPaul]

that's one of the hardest challenges tbh. In my case it really helped to: 1. come up with a clear idea what moves I want to work on before I leave the house 2. bring music and have a little training Playlist. Here it is btw: open.spotify.com/playlist/5X6jrdvWAiWJfFw5lsvn3I?si=936733e85fff4bf7 3. Join Parkour Online Forum's or some sort of group online 4. take longer trips and go to training sessions with more people every other week Hope this helps
