How To STRIDE & Bound : Parkour TUTORIAL (Jesse La Flair)

[@lukekempf6171]

Thanks for the great tutorials. I'm going to college soon and I've been looking into parkour and free running as a way to keep myself in shape and build some coordination and muscle. These have helped a lot already. Keep being awesome.

[@tobiaspolze]

found a great location in my city to train the stride, but when i analyzed my stride in slowmo i reckognized that i am using both arms to pull me forward. this destroys my momentum. your tutorial is really helpful and i will try to improve my stride as soon as possible :) keep it up

[@brennanfickle3403]

Thank You for all of the parkour training videos you post I just got into parkour about 2 weeks ago and your videos were the first ones I saw. Thank You.

[@gulshiniho]

the best teacher I have ever seen ! keep it up jesse

[@hvarnjortug1889]

I like the reactions of random people walking by.

[@chucklee1313]

Love your tutorials...I enjoy how you take your time to explain all of the details.

[@Craw4d4]

Thx for the tutorial Jesse! I do triple jump at my track meets and I have been having trouble with the second part, which is basically a strider. I think this will help me in my championship meet in 2 weeks! Wish me luck!

[@joelperry]

I love at 8:33 when you are talking about how when walking your right arm moves forward with your left leg, there is a guy crossing the background from left to right giving a perfect example of what you are describing.

[@fawls13]

Good video. As a long time runner (normal, not free, running) stride is very important so I have been wondering how important it is in parkour. This video explained it very succinctly and thoroughly.

[@CatarinaSi]

how is it important in running ?

[@benjaminupton2202]

I live in England and I am 13. What can you suggest as I am starting out, but you are my idol. Thank you and love all of your videos.

[@toxicscorpions4359]

you are my favorite parkour pearson on youtube. your awesome!

[@tonykirk4247]

You should do a tutorial on effective practicing. I love all your tutorials, but it's hard to know what I should learn.

[@camsoup101]

thank you for making these tutorials i love them they help me a lot but can you make a short exercise video to get stronger it would help a lot of people

[@BluePi1313]

This helped a lot! And I am SO glad that the audio quality is better ^_^

[@vincentdagostini774]

Thank you jesse! Because of you i found 4 rocks, the distance between the first 2 was 8 ft, and then the next stride was 9 ft to a 13 ft precision on the last rock!

[@tuckerg757]

Please make a wall spin tutorial. I've done the palm spin and in that video you talked about progressing to the wall spin and I would like to know how to know how to follow up with that

[@ZxParkourxZ]

Another great tutorial, Jesse. By the way, what kind of shoes were you wearing? I'm definitely interested in them.

[@guyamsalem14]

Thank you for this tutorial Jesse, all of your tutorials & videos are really great. But, what I don't understand about the Stride is how you land on your heel without hurting your knees or back? I always thought landing on your fingertips is the right way to land ...

[@nitres155]

you don´t put much force on your heel.

[@LaFlairParkour]

I bought this mic but it kinda makes electrical sounds especially if I try to use my goPro wireless... But I agree it sounds way better!

[@GrimReapersGhost]

How amazing is it when he talks about the arms being counter to the legs that you can watch the people in the background walking demonstrating the concept.

[@danipauk8506]

THANKS FOR ALL YOUR HELP WITH ALL YOUR PARKOUR VIDEOS THEY REALLY HELP THANKSSS BRO

[@Estebandoesparkour]

Thanks for all the tutorials they realy help tomaro its training day also thanks so much keep on doin wat your doing you inspired me to do parkour almost a year ago for that i thank you a lot

[@sarahmcdowell5919]

I just watched you on American ninja warrior!!! You did the best!!! Good luck in Vegas:)

[@chefkendranguyen]

As always, nice tutorial. :)

[@mrlibre]

I got better at parkour because of you!

[@panais4everbiotch]

Hey I finally mastered the kong vault thanks to your tutorial and hard training. :) But could you please explain me or make a tutorial for how to do it on a rail because i am still afraid of doing it there! I would be grateful :)

[@hacker2ish]

I use the different colors on the floor in the small flat I live in and suprisingly I have learned to do it nearly as good as Jesse.

[@THEJrock343]

ive only done parkour for 2 days thanks to u i fell like a master thank you jesse

[@ethanbobby1818]

Please make a b-twist tutorial or a corkscrew tutorial. Please understand that you are the best on KZbin at breaking down tricks and explaining them well.

[@NippleGuard]

thanks to your tutorials i only go to school by parkouring :) and thanks to that, im one of the most popular kids in the school :D

[@awwschmitten]

Hey Jesse, I know this probably doesn't have much to do with parkour and the likes, but do you have any tips on running up stairs faster? Might sound like a silly question, but I feel that there is a better way to do it than I currently do.

[@Wingly13]

That last video really helped with the roll now mastered

[@CarneRojo]

i have always been able to do this, just not without hurting my feet. Thanks Jesse

[@_mokoa]

It's exactly the same movement and mindset. You can use the same techniques you use for a kong on a small concrete wall and then just apply them to a rail. It seems you have the skill to do it since you said you could but it's just a mental boundary. Just start easing into the movement and build up confidence. It's exactly the same movement just on a different surface. Good Luck :)

[@Redec55]

Here's how I remember it, if you've played Mario or seen him do his jumps, its kinda like a stride but just more dedicated to height.

[@vincentgreyling7983]

Great tutorials man u helped a lot Tnx

[@BABYFACESTYLEZ1990]

damn man I wish people around here did some free running ...I start talking about it an people look at me weird lol watching your vids is the closet I get to it ..keep doing your thing

[@TheEastCoastRevival]

Jesse will you be at Beast Coast in DC this weekend?

[@justintdesrochers]

Hey jesse, can u fo a video on the vinetian plumber from assassins creed. I know it sounds weird but me and my friends want to know if its actually possible. That'd be great :-)

[@Hokuzpokus]

Hi there Jesse! I was just wondering if you have any tips on a good camera for about 1000 dollars, we're a new parkour group and would like to be able to film with the best quality that we can. Thanks from Sweden!

[@lonewolf-gf3mm]

Hey jessy i want to do parkour I have precisions down and my rolls, and I want to do the other stuff. But I dont want to get hurt by doing them do you have any advice.

[@MrDrillex]

Good detailed tutorials nice man

[@tomsmeIIs]

thx for another awesome video!!! I hope you will make them for a very long time xD

[@rage5110]

I can finally have the full mario experience Lol

[@MMT_Daigo]

Tomorrow is training day!! Thanks Jesse!

[@Nightwing7083]

Great, now i can start working on my strides! :D Thanks a lot laflair!!!!! :0

[@parkourkillas]

yes please make a b-twist or cork screw . I need to learn

[@chrissmityyy]

I think I do everything about like you except for what I do with my arms... I kinda use both arms to swing it through if I'm trying to get a lot of power. What I mean is I swing both of my arms through and push my chest out. I almost have the motion of a breaststroke... It gets me really far though. I swing the crap out of my kicking leg and swing my arms. That might work for some people if swinging the opposite arm doesn't work...

[@senatortrout]

As another 13 year old, start will upper body strength. Wallclimbs, vaults can help, if you thank you are ready, lache, and plenty of push ups. Hope this helped. Just have fun with it. Make up moves if you have to.

[@jdlegojedi2002]

Will you teach us how to do a backwards vault in to a backflip?

[@brennanfickle3403]

When did you start getting into parkour? I'm just wondering.

[@ArchivedByHaz]

Thanks La Flair (: Now Im able to find out what I did wrong when doing my strides!

[@BrainDeadZombies]

I do strides on the lines of a parking lot. The lines are about 6 feet or so away from each other. I do a run into it and then try to stride all the way through. However, by the 4th line, I end up not hitting the line. Is this a technique problem or am I doing these strides too far apart?

[@Dankbeenos]

Could you please make a video on striding over gaps with a height change? I don't really know how to explain it... But here's an example: There's this gap I'm working on where I run and use a 2 foot ledge to jump to a 5 foot ledge that's about 5 feet away from the first ledge.

[@sakae_]

I'd suggest you try going into a cat jump/leap. You'd just have to pay attention to switching from your chest being more foward for the momentum of the stride, to having your chest back while going into the cat jump so your feet/legs can make contact with the wall first, and you can successfully complete the climb up and/or pop up.

[@Dankbeenos]

Unfortunately, the wall that I'm trying to jump to isn't really suitable for cats. In addition, probably lower than 5 feet. Maybe about 4 or so.

[@joshcalvert4118]

I really like your videos. Your an isperation.

[@youtubeaccount9207]

Remember watching this when It first came out!

[@Rebecca-is9fi]

6:30 lady walking past. Probably thought it was going on TV and so wanted in! :) lol

[@waynemoore3853]

you and your videos rock! oh and thank you so much.

[@shredforceone]

You can use that to your advantage though. you can make basically everything you want. Make blocks similar to this video, use fallen trees to vault over.

[@nathannewman7077]

Lol earlier I was trying to do it on a rail also because rails are mainly what I have to train on (if you c my vids you'll know that) so it would be awesome if you did a tutorial on a rail....

[@1CZparkour]

it is the same place where were you doing the climb up tutorial, isn't that?

[@Titansrose182]

When your feet are landing, where are your eyes during the strides? Are you looking where you are going, or are you looking to the next stride, or are your eyes up ahead of you?

[@mrukon9]

Have you ever thought about taking up long jump or triple jump?

[@Shadow0Runners]

I started this on big rocks near a playground nearby its really fun

[@sir_pat1369]

I love the level of descriptiveness he uses :)

[@davidthomas3306]

[@hudson188]

Hey Jesse can you do a video on Gainers? (Running backflip)

[@TehArmoredButcher]

i love how the guy in the background shows the hand leg counter right as he talks about it

[@asteriareaper8147]

I had already taught myself how to do this and then it's like "WAIT A SECOND" because I used to do this all the time. At my old school, we had these tree stumps lined up outside. I once tried to run along them, and I taught myself and others how to do Strides.

[@asteriareaper8147]

They actually had to knock the stumps down because I kept doing it.

[@sergiodominguez5246]

Hey can u make a tutorial of jumping over obsticles??

[@BltchErica]

Just jump over them, do you really need a tutorial for that!?. ..

[@jdlegojedi2002]

[@Roilu123]

LaFlairParkour i need some advice. so my friends got me into parkour and once i faceplanted while doing the speed vault because i jumped late and clipped my foot now im scared to parkour

[@benny71555]

It happens even jesselaflair ronnieshvas and david belle fail

[@Roilu123]

SlimeCake i guess :D

[@bladerunner219]

DarkLucario444 I'm going to give you 5 little words you can take with you forever " don't sweat the small stuff!" It doesn't matter whether you did it or failed the important part is you went for it , this is what parkour is all about. Look at Ronnie he injured his back for almost 2 years but did that stop him from doing all the insane shit he does now? No. Kyle epics had knee injuries ankle injuries and he's comeback. The point is its OK to fall. If you don't fail you will never succeed. We will always fall and we will continue to fall until we can do that move blindfolded , naked and on fire! The point is don't be afraid to fall , falling is living. Never give up because you never know how far you were from being the best. I really hope this helped you and always train hard and stay safe

[@t0fuu957]

DarkLucario444 i know how you feel i tried too kong and i ended up flipping on my back

[@intralimpidus6216]

same thing happened to me, but I just forgot about it

[@peterwinnick7037]
