I don't know of any training courses already set up, or anyone that could do one, but I'm definately up for joining!

ok! lets all watch this space.
maybe there are adult gymnastic classes or just get some people together to do some cross training? i think they do x-training (at) ashdown school in canford heath. it's a start in the right direction!!!!!!!

i think we should all meet up or at least all chat on msn and arange some kind of training session. we need to learn to roll and a few basic safety things and then just experiment on the streets. i dont think there are strict rules as what to do, you make it up yourself. mail me on danja26(at)hotmail.com if you have any ideas or want to chat about sorting something out.

well i am 35yrs old! which means i have a bit more strength but maybe not so much flexability.
whatever you do, if you go to meet anyone make sure you go with a friend. that goes without saying really.
this looks like a great new sport that people of all ages can enjoy, kind of crosses all boundries.
there is also a lot of dangers out there so be careful!!

Well it would seem to me that the best way to train is to get out there and just do it. There are so many of us getting into it after Jump Britain that we could all learn together.
I'm going back to uni a week on monday. But if anyone wants to meet up and just try it out then tell me: matthutton26(at)hotmail.com

If it's ok with everyone I'll make a few enquiries and see what we can get in the way of gymnastic training and a venue. Drop me a line if your interested so i can gauge support.

we should arrange to hire a gym hall like littledown cos it has crash mats and gymnastic equipment to practice in

Right it seems to be a toss up between Littledown in Boscombe and Rossmore in Parkstone. I will visit them both on Wednesday and see what i can come up with. ;D

wow, sounds great. i live in littledown and can see the JP Morgan building (which is right next to the littledown centre) from my bedroom window.. would be great if that could be arranged. i go to Southampton Insitute to study.........everyday...well....my academic week is only 3 days (mon- wed)....and lookin around on a few websites have found a couple pics of "hot spots" for PK'in in Southampon, which i walk past everyday, i'll never look at the buildings in the same way would be great to meet up and get something started i've never had any PK experience. i can do a few flips 'n stuff. used to be into Kung Fu (Wing Chun) quite alot.....but i messed my ankle up about 2 years ago, and kinda never got back into, which is a shame really. ahh well...i hope this "goes somewhere" and isnt just a dead end thread. if we did meet ...just thought i'd let u know i'm mega shy and talking isnt really my strong point. hehe ok..enuff blabbing...now where did i put my coursework?!?!? ;D
