David Belle and his father started parkour, if you were wondering about Free-running aswell, Sebastien Foucan.
1. Free running is a discipline to self development, following your own way. In free running you may employ movements of your choosing. It's essentially complete freedom of movement. 2. It's a form of urban acrobatics. 3. The founder and creator of Free running is Sebasten Foucan.
It was invented by a group of childhood friends in Lisses, near Paris - as in so many suburban towns, there was little for young people to do, so Sebastien Foucan, David Belle and others created what they call le parkour (a deliberately un-French spelling to make the point that they were doing something different).
