WIPW COACH ANNOUNCEMENT 💕 @bozuijderwijk1⁠
⁠
With our 8th annual Women's International Parkour Weekend coming this May, we're excited to announce our next awesome coach in our WIPW line-up.
⁠
Hailing from the Netherlands, 29 year old Bo Zuijderwijk, has been training movement since childhood, practicing Taekwondo for 12 years before learning to become a PE teacher. It was at this point that she first encountered parkour through Pedro Salgado who at that time worked at JUMP Freerun. From that moment there was no turning back. She’d been bitten by the bug and began practicing regularly with parkour friends Saskia Neville and Paula Broersen.

Appreciating the value of a space specifically for women, Bo started a girls-only group in 2017; which has since given rise to a wave of female parkour coaches and assistants coming out of the Dutch traceuse community.

Bo both coaches and competes, so if you haven’t yet experienced her skills at one of the European training jams, you’re sure to have seen her moves on the competitive circuit… and now she’s coming to the Women’s International Parkour Weekend this May. Whoop whoop!
⁠

GETTING TO GRIPS WITH OUR WORLD // Our first exper

GETTING TO GRIPS WITH OUR WORLD // Our first experience of the world is through touch and the information we first receive through our tactile system when we exit the womb. The ability to process tactile information effectively allows us to feel safe and understand where our body is in relation to other elements of our locale.⁠
⁠
In parkour we train not just to overcome but understand our environment and how to work with it. This is why we training without gloves. In daily life, our hands automatically receive a constant data stream from temperature to texture and movement; hot, cold, roughness, stickiness, slipperiness and friction. All vital information points for where the body is in space.⁠
⁠
Our mechanoreceptors allow us to form bonds with the things we touch, contributing to our social and emotional development too. So it's a win win. We learn about the world and ourselves by literally having a hands on experience.⁠

Come and get to grips with your environment at one of our OUTDOOR PARKOUR classes this week!⁠ ➡️ Get booked in on our app 📲 or at parkourgenerationslondon.com⁠
