Moving Efficiently for Love

Parkour. Defined as an activity with the aim of moving from one point to another as efficiently and quickly as possible, using principally the abilities of the human body. It is meant to help one overcome obstacles, which can be anything in the surrounding environment — from branches and rocks to rails and concrete walls — and can be practiced in both rural and urban areas. Parkour practitioners are referred to as traceurs. Vive La France.



Come see us this weekend - April 26th and 27th at the 2008 Minneapolis Saint Paul Home Tour and try your luck at parkour in and around a bonafide RoehrSchmitt original. Visit us between 10 and 5 on Saturday and 1 and 5 on Sunday for tours, conversations and modernism in action at Juliet House in St Paul. See you then.
