Plédran."Freerunning", between climbing and martial arts
On Saturday, Vincent Bohanne, an expert in the discipline of Freerunning, met with the young people of Breizh Parkour 22, from the national network of Junior Associations, for a question-and-answer and training session.
This association introduces young people aged 10 to 15 on average to the practice of freerunning. It is an art of movement. This discipline has also been publicized by the films Yamakasi or again Banlieue 13 . A sport that has been developing for twenty years.
A first in Côtes-d’Armor
“There are very few course schools, we are also the only one in Côtes-d’Armor. Passionate for five years, and a year ago we decided to launch the project", explains Julian Pohu, president of the association, "This year, we decided to invite Vincent Bohanne, an expert in this discipline for ten years, in order to show his passion and his experience to the young people we supervise.
The association has about twenty active members, the young people of the town gather around this passion. It encourages freedom of expression, the spirit of initiation and the renewal of associative life, in a common discipline at the crossroads of climbing, martial arts and gymnastics.
Breizh Parkour 22 has been managed by four teenagers since September 2018, with its Junior Association status. Every week we meet at the omnisports and elsewhere outside, when the weather allows us.
“We don’t have elbow pads or helmets, but the youngsters know their abilities and know that if there is a jump that is too long or potentially risky, they won’t do it. We do what we know how to do and we move forward little by little, ”says Hugo Le Moulloc, their sports manager.
The association is the only course structure in the department but also one of the few in Brittany. The four leaders are Hugo Le Moulloc and Samuel, sports managers, with E. Guegen, treasurer and Julian Pohu, president.
