Next month sees the return of the USA's annual international training extravaganza, American Rendezvous 3!

Next month Châu Belle of the Yamakasi Founders will visit Quebec city, Canada, to run a training event for ADD Quebec on September 23-25.

This Summer our parters the Yamakasi Founders at the ADD Academy will be holding a series of workshops all over Europe, with several week-long courses going on in Paris. This weekend sees one of the discipline's founders - Laurent Piemontesi - leading two workshop events in Italy, in Trani on June 4th and Bari on June 5th.

Last month our good friends and partners, the Yamakasi Founders at ADD Academy in France travelled to China and performed a demonstration for the ancient Wudang Temple on Three Lakes Mountain, one of the spiritual homes of Kung Fu. The demonstration was a great success and it's great to see such mutual respect and admiration between the two disciplines. 

On 16/17 April several of the Yamakasi Founders and the initiators of the ADD Academy in France will be running a special workshop event in Milan, Italy, called 'ADD Origins'.

At the end of May this year we will be holding another American Rendezvous in Ohio, USA, following the great success of last year's event. We can now confirm that our colleagues the Yamakasi Founders will also be coaching at the event alongside several of the Parkour Generations Team.

Last May, Parkour Horizons (Columbus, Ohio, USA) hosted American Rendezvous. It was one of the largest parkour events ever in the United States and one of the biggest parkour events anywhere in the world in 2010. More than 150 practitioners came from around North America and even from Hawaii to  learn from 10 instructors from Parkour Generations and the Yamakasi founders.
