Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Parkour is a physical activity of French origin in which its practitioners travel along a route overcoming the obstacles they encounter along the way, quickly and fluidly, using only their bodies. Given the physical demands of the sport, this activity has great potential to be used in Physical Education as curricular content in schools and also as a method for physical fitness. Although it is not directly linked to Physical Education as a higher education course, the mutual contributions that can be obtained from this link are very promising. But is there room for practicing this sport in the academic environment? The aim of this study was to introduce Parkour into higher education in Physical Education and assess its acceptance by both academics and the community.
