Welcome to Overflux.com,
the southeast usa parkour community

(est. 2004)
Parkour, or the art of movement, is moving from one point to another as efficiently and quickly as possible using the abilities of the human body.

(click here to learn more)
It is meant to help one overcome obstacles in the surrounding environment—from branches and rocks to rails and concrete walls—within rural and urban areas.

As a not-for-profit, community-driven organization, overflux is dedicated to the advancement of member traceurs (parkour practitioners).
As partners in training for parkour, we set up regular sessions open to everyone all around the southeast.

New guy: welcome.

There's a pretty active team in Atlanta, and I'm going to try and get things rolling with a small crew in Macon (about 100 miles east of Ft. Benning) in the next few months.

Columbus itself has some really nice hotspots. Check south of downtown on the riverfront, there's a couple parks that are nice starting points.

I know its quite a drive from Colombus but we have regular training sessions in Atlanta. If you ever happen to be around during one of those weekends then def stop by.

Really the drive between Columbus and Atlanta isn't too horrible. It's less than 2 hours in light traffic (weekends) and it's all interstate so it's pretty painless. The biggest hassle would be driving back if you'd bruised yourself up badly or sprained a wrist or something.

But yeah, Fort Benning is right next to Columbus Georgia, which is about 100 miles from both Macon (to the east) and Atlanta (to the north-northeast).

Once I get the Macon sessions somewhat regular (in a few months or so, probably) I'll try and post more information on when/where we meet.

'Sup Drake!

I don't know if you're mobile (do you drive/do you have your own vehicle?) but Thomaston is only 30 miles outside of Macon. The Macon PK community will probably start doing fairly regular runs sometime late this spring.

If you're looking for good hotspots without much hassle, Mercer's campus is hot, and pretty much dead before 11AM on the weekends, and the security shouldn't hassle you as long as you don't go anywhere you're not really supposed to (no climbing to the roof of the administration building, etc.) There is also a kickass new pedestrian bridge near Tatnall Square park. I'll try and grab some pictures of the area tomorrow maybe.

A buddy and I are going to run some routes this weekend, we'll tell you how it goes and if we find any other hot spots worth mentioning.

Lilburn, Georgia

I have been doing PK for about 2 weeks and I'm loving it! If anyone has any tips please pm/email me. There are some great parks around here but Lilburn is not a very big city. I do most of my Pk at my house or at other parks (on playgrounds, trees, sides of restrooms etc.). Its not to bad. Hopefully I can come to the next Jam!

Traceurs should just be like drug dealers -- keep changing the name of the product to confuse the authorities.

So this week it'll be like "Parkour? what's that? Got that ThatFlow, though!"
And next week it'll be "A2B! A2B! Get that sh!t right here!"
