Hey everyone!
I have just sorted out our hoodie "problem"..maybe just temporarily though.
I have finally cut out a stencil with our logo, and spray painted it onto a hoodie
and trackpants I bought today. I'm quite happy to say that I think everything
worked out really well! I will show you on Sunday, as I'll definitely be wearing
the "suit".
Cheers,
Rustic

Training times, publicity, and hoodies!
Hey everyone!
We've now more or less established training times for our club, recruited more free-runners, and have gotten through to the ISE..as of now, our "definite" training times are:
Wednesdays: 4pm, meet outside of the library for a run in town..
Sundays: 3pm meet at the ISE for an hour long session, after which
we go for a run in town..
Everyone is welcome! We had 3 traceurs come over from Fife last week, and we'll hopefully have 2 people from St Andrews here with us on Sunday. Everyone seems to think though, that our club costs something..but we all have to remember that the streets are for free, and for everyone! So remember to invite friends along to training.
Last week we had Evelyn, a journalist for the campus magazine, "The Magdalen", following us around and taking pictures of our training, after which we gave interviews.. So keep a look out for next months issue, as we'll hopefully make the front page!
We will now be filming a series of videos for our new YouTube account:
http://youtube.com/dundeepk
So come along in your "free runner" clothes and show us what you've got, and you might end up in our introductional video to the world! ^_^
The weather seems to be getting much nicer in Dundee, at the moment, so I will send out spontaneous emails to let people know when Im training..we should take advantage of the good weather before we go into March, as last years March was REALLY cold, from what I hear..
Also, we should be getting some custom sleeveless hoodies with our logo soon! They will cost about £20 each..or if you want, you can bring your own hoodie and we'll spray paint our logo on, through a stencil..If you anyone is interested, please send us an email at: dundeepk@gmail.com
Anyway, I hope you found this post informative, and I will see you at training!

A little about our club..
Hello everyone, and welcome to the Dundee Parkour Club Homepage!!
If you are here, that means you are interested in the sport of parkour and freerunning!
We hope you find some useful information on this page, and that you come along to a training session sometime!
A little about us:
We started up in November of 2008, and now have about 15 members. As of now, we only have students of Dundee University who train with us, but we will welcome anyone who is intersted! We are sponsored by Braes Pub and normally go there after our training sessions, to have a few drinks and tell a few stories.
Our training times as of now are Sundays at 3pm, and we meet outside of the main university library, before going off to different training spots around Dundee..
Anyway, here are some useful websites for you if you want some more information on movements, philosophy, etc..
The APK website has a lot of useful info and promotions going:
http://www.americanparkour.com/
This is our core team's website, PKFR International:
http://pkfrinternational.com/
A good article on the sport of Parkour:
http://parkourpedia.com/about/what-is-parkour
A good website by Dogen, for learning tricking..also if you look up tutorials by Dogen on YouTube you will get VERY good tips for tumbling and tricking:
http://www.dogentricks.com/
And here are 2 tricking forums, the first one is a smaller community so the people are more likely to reply and help out:
http://www.tricksession.com/
and this is the classic one:
http://trickstutorials.com
Oh and don't forget about conditioning!! Very important..here is a very interesting video by a traceur we call LiveWire. We might get to train with himif we go to any major PK jams in the spring:
