Hey! I seen Jump London and Jump Britain and I have been inspired to start parkour. I'm a complete beginner though I live in the Newtownabbey area and have been reading the forum and c that you's are trying to arrange a club in the UUJ gym. Would I be right in assuming that UUJ is the University of Ulster campus in Jordanstown?

Yeah, Andy UUJ is the University of Jordanstown. And don't worry that you're a complete beginner. Most of us are. I guess Dunmurry is our only option left then. But please, if anyone knows anywhere else that might suit more people feel free to post it. Everyone seems to be pretty close together though so travel, hopefully, won't be too much trouble. Um, by the way, I hope I'm not sounding too pushy. When I posted this I wasn't expecting any response. I'm just really excited to know that there are other people who think Parkour is as amazing as I do. It would be really great if we could get some sort of group organised. It's just a pity there isn't anyone with more experience in the art to teach us. I guess we'll just have to learn by trial and error! Now doesn't that sound dangerous

Yeah the connection deal is getting really annoying. So craig have you been doing parkour for long? Do you think maybe you could come along to the meets (when the thing is sorted) and pass on some of your wisdom? We'd really appreciate it Hi Pauljb, it would be great if we could use the gym at Belfast since that seems to be what suits most people. Let us know as soon as you find out. I never thought of naming the club, it's a good idea. Anyone with a good name for the club feel free to post it and we'll decide at the first meet.
