"The art of Parkour was born in the mid 80's in France and came to prominence in the UK in 2002. Through further development and with progression in mind, Freestyle Parkour was born. It was felt that Parkour as a discipline was starting to become too regimental & elitist and through the release of an inconsistent and out of date definition, became somewhat stifling and restrictive. The aim of Freestyle Parkour is allow for total freedom of movement, promote creativity and to encourage people to find their own way and develop their own creative license. With Freestyle Parkour, people wishing to perform flips, spins and adding flair, will not be excluded. Anyone wishing to see a perfect example of what Freestyle Parkour is all about, should seek out the 'Rush hour' video of David Belle (co founder of Parkour) performing a rooftop run using regular Parkour techniques mixed in with flips and acrobatics. This is EXACTLY what Freestyle Parkour is all about. "- Urban Freeflow

Would anyone know if parkour is still popular? Came across it in singapore (of all places) 5 months ago.
