Meet other local Parkour/Freerunning Practitioners. Gather for discussion, plan practice sessions, and learn more about this form of "urban gymnastics," emphasizing speed, flow, and grace.

This could also be a great way for someone to practice the "flight" mode if they're ever in situations involving quick response in imminent danger--such as escaping a mugger or rescuing someone from a burning building. Parkour focuses on practicing efficient movements to develop one's body and mind to be able to overcome obstacles in an emergency.

A great article about women and parkour can be found here:
