You might forget how to run( away) thats a seriously bad memory, that's lik e forgetting how to seeWhen running away is the best solution, parkour can only help. I had one instructor mixing both things as well, MMA and parkour.
Seriously, if we don’t train ‘running away’, under stress we may forget (or not be able to use) this option.
Once sparring with knifes, one guy against me was jumping back so far that I just turned back and went out of the door. He was puzzled at first, but I think (only) then he understood why he shouldn’t give that much space; and that going away can be the best option.

It’s not forget how to run, it is forgetting this is an option. Furthermore, parkour (training) gives more exit ways; and higher success rate running away...You might forget how to run( away) thats a seriously bad memory, that's lik e forgetting how to see
I am not alone.Not really. I've seen more than one person get so focused on "winning" that they forget the real object - getting away without getting hurt.
It is not THE solution. It is ONE option sometimes, for some of us.^^^ Right! Nobody forgets how to run away.
Now, f you have injuries, disabilities, are seriously out of shape, or are protecting someone else... running away is a lot harder.
You might be forced to stand your ground. You know, "back against the wall" ...¨entre la espada y la pared¨ or what we call going defondo.
That might be your objective, but it's not necessarily THE objective of a fight, if somone has annoyed you sufficiently ( by say attacking you in the street)it's quite reasonable to have the objective of hurting him_sufficiently that you feel the slight has been equalled, even I f that means taking some damage yourself,Not really. I've seen more than one person get so focused on "winning" that they forget the real object - getting away without getting hurt.
It's still seriously bad memory if you forget it's an option.It’s not forget how to run, it is forgetting this is an option. Furthermore, parkour (training) gives more exit ways; and higher success rate running away...
PS: Not sure I should reply to you, jobo. But replied just in case I was not clear before.
Well yes, but the parkour thing masks the underlying message,parkour, is gymnastics, our door applied gymnastics, but definitely gymnastics,I’ve watched a few of this guys videos. He’s very open minded. Towards the end he talks about mixing Parkour with MMA as a style. Sounds funny at first but Parkour is excellent for conditioning. Ever watch Beast Master? LOL
For the record this isnt new. In some self defence styles the teacher has you do drills in which you get down on the floor and back up quickly and vault over things etc. Plus if you teach to a police market there is merit to teach how to traverse obstacles same with a military one and a civilian one.
If it is parkour, more to him as thats not officially taught in many places. Most people have to practice themselves and learn the breakfalls and rolls etc themselves. The more people who offer a structured environment to learn it the better.
Funnily enough, it didnt have a name until recently as it was just traversing obstacles. (and is)
‘Bad memory’ under stress, if you want. We do what we practice, or what we trust. Under stress, it is not time to ‘let’s see if it works’. So... if you don’t know if you can jump a wall (to run away), it is not an (smart) option.It's still seriously bad memory if you forget it's an option.
If one has the time to put in anything that helps increase flexibility, strength, body awareness & control, environment awareness, and movement will enhance overall performance.
^^^ Right! Nobody forgets how to run away.
