Morzine Parkour Camp: 21st - 28th August 2010

From August 21st -28th 2010 we will be running our annual summer training camp in the French Alpine resort of Morzine. Taught by some of the most experienced practitioners in the world, the camp is physically demanding but great fun too.

With a wide variety of man-made and natural features, mountain fresh air, tranquil atmosphere, high quality accommodation and delicious cuisine, Morzine is the ideal place to learn Parkour. The training environment varies from the dramatic mountain top architecture of Avoriaz, to the riverside woodlands beneath the picturesque town of Morzine itself.

Accommodation is based at Chalet Philibert which has en-suite bathrooms, a bar, a gym with sauna and a swimming pool.

Who can take part?

The training programme is designed for both beginners and experienced parkour athletes over the age of 16. Although a basic level of fitness is recommended, there is no upper age limit.

Over the course of the camp the training will concentrate on:
