An event where parkour practitioners (traceurs) gather together to 'jam', or do parkour. During one, everyone meets at a particular, set place, and jams it out there, and it can sometimes be followed by food and drink, or some form of sustenance, as the day has progressed and energy has been spent and needs must be replenished.
Traceur 1: "Dude, you coming to the Jam today?"
Traceur 2: "Of course, man! i wouldn't miss a Parkour Jam for ANYTHING!"
Traceur 1: "Brohammad! You coming to the Parkour Jam today?"
Guy: "Brobi-wan-kenobi, i couldn't do parkour if my life depended on it."
Traceur 1: "That's cool, there are always a few people tagging along just to watch because they aren't cool enough to do parkour."
guy: "Alright, Sweet!"

Get the Parkour Jam mug.Not really parkour, but walking over chairs/tables to get to where you need to be, usually very slowly.
Jim: Dude, can you move the chairs? I need to leave the room to make a phone call.
Tim: Softcore parkour! Climb over shit.
Jim: I guess that's my only option.

Get the Urban Parkour mug.Parkourdeling is basically the sport of practicing parkour (which is getting from point A to point B in the most creative manner you can think) all while yodeling like a Swiss mountain climber.
Mackenzie: I wish there was someway to combine two activities that I enjoy, such as yodeling and parkour, so I could enjoy them at the same time.
Kelsey: HEY! Why don't you do that?! Parkour WHILE you yodel! It will be utterly astounding and will surely boost your sex appeal. We'll call it parkourdeling.

Get the Parkourdeling mug.One (usually young) urban living, spoilt upper class educated gob shite woman who espouses causes for the furtherance of womenhood that most women would not touch with a barge pole and anyway for whom such causes are academic because they don't have the money to take the benefit of them. Usually to be seen in the Parlours of Westminster, Wandsworth, Islington, Camden, Wimbledon etc... If they ever do get involved with the police, it is to shop the sisterhood in to them when they have had enough of them or when they threaten their cosey political or local authority management sinecure or when they wet their knickers at the site of them on any very infrequent occasion they do go on a protest and need assistance in changing them.

Get the Parkourastination mug.Parkour (or 'le parkour'; 'freerunning'; 'pk' or 'pking') is the sport of fluid urban movement. Invented in 1988 in the Lisses suburb of Paris by a small crew of traceurs including the ledgendary David Belle and Sebastien Foucan who recently featured in the BBC documentary 'Jump London', the sport (or art) of pk is essentially a conbination of running, athletics and acrobatics in urban environments.
It includes such techniques as the tic-tac (wall step/run); kong (a form of vault); and precision (two-foot to two-foot jump) among myriad others. Most watching traceurs pk would describe their movements as series of of actobatic techniques fluidly integrated into a continuous run from A to B, past, over under and through any obstacles in their path. However, that would be during a run (most of which are filmed, as with skaters). Most often, if you saw traceurs practicing they'd be honing individual components of their technique.
Certain individuals have chosen to explore alternative forms of parkour, such as running through traffic or passing through crowds quicky, while others, such as Team Ryouko or Xyndicate have attempted to blend pk's unique ideals with other forms of martial and athletic arts.
