Yesterday I went to a parkour class. I was very shy but the teachers were very nice, and there was one other kid. I was surprised that there weren't as many kids as I was expecting.
Parkour is a sport that is very fun. What you do it you jump around and do flips and backflips and jump far distances. The way you jump so far is you have your hands in the front of your face and you jump and pull your feet into your chest and launch your legs like a rocket.
In the class, first we warmed up for awhile. We stretched and then we started hopping around. We stretched some more, then we played follow the leader. We jumped, we ran, we vaulted over park signs, and I jumped on a trash can, which I almost fell in. Then I tried to jump onto a wall, but I slipped and I fell on dog poop. It was fresh. My hand was smelly. It shivered me bones.
We learned how to spin around on a low wall. First, you grip the edge of the wall and put your other hand flat on the top of the wall. You push yourself and you spin around. You can't do a full spin, because it's almost impossible for any beginner. You have to be a master at parkour.
We did some more stretching and then I got my carbonated water out and I was going to drink it, but it turned on me and it exploded in my face.
I loved doing parkour. I hope to go again to the class next week.
