We’ve got great news! Chennai Parkour conducted a Parkour Workshop at IIT-M’s cultural fest – Saarang.

Saarang is one of India’s most awaited college cultural festivals. This year, Chennai Parkour conducted a two day workshop to teach participants some basic movements that traceurs use. We also taught safety best practices and explained some of the strength training requirements for those who choose to train in Parkour more extensively. We had a wonderful turnout and we’re happy to report that the participants went home feeling tired, but satisfied that they’d learnt quite a bit.

Here are some photographs from the event.
