Ignorance is bliss 😅 i did parcour classes at Chelsea piers ten years ago and it left an impression. It was all padded and matted. I was doing great kongs above waist height because the worry of it failing was taken away. That feeling of just being able to commit to the act wholeheartedly
It's a great analogy between moving in a soft and padded environment and the kind of confident movement we all want. One difference is that the "safety net" is provided by biological tissue, instead of synthetic! That said, well placed attention may have the final say on how safe we feel. Thanks for sharing!
This is such a great piece and resonates so much with my martial arts training. Thank you.
This work is so broad in its potential application. Thanks again Jon.

Huh, can't amend/ edit. Interesting thinking about it as padding around obstacles vs padding around moving object
And it's internalised instead of externalised - have cushioning, will travel 😅
