Training Partners

I am very fortunate to have the opportunity to share my life as a wife with Forrest, but also as a training partner and student. We spend a lot of time together enjoying sport such as dancing, yoga and of course parkour.









I got to know this great discipline through Forrest and I am very happy that he is still taking a lot of time teaching me and sharing with me the joy of practicing parkour. The majority of our spare time is spent on training. It is not always easy to let go the feeling to be a wife and take on the position of a student but every minute of it is worth it. I learned to deal with the fact that when we train together in the academy, outdoor class or on our own, he makes comments just like a teacher. It wasn`t always easy to deal with it but I am really pleased that I can now let go and accept him being my teacher who sees me as his student. But of course having a hug after a hard session is great and takes away all the pain :-)



Many people have asked me whether it is not too much time spent together and how I feel to share so much with Forrest. My answer is simple; having a training partner, teacher, friend and husband in one is the best that could happen to me. I love it and I am very thankful for having this fantastic and unique opportunity.







Sometimes I do manage to challenge the teacher though...we always learn, doesn`t matter if you are a teacher or a student...












The images give an insight of our training, captured by Mick Mason who was interested in getting to know a bit more about our time spent together training parkour.
