Finn Berggren shares his thoughts on Parkour, explaining why he brought Parkour to Gerlev Idr\xe6tsh\xf8jskole in Denmark to replace the traditional gymnastics curriculum. We also discuss the "sportification" of Parkour and the Olympics, and he shares his story of the pivotal moment which solidified his decision to bring Parkour to Gerlev.\n\n\n\n\n\nTranscript for "Finn Berggren: Gerlev Idr\xe6tsh\xf8jskole, sportification, and the Olympics"\n\n\n\n--- Hello, I'm Craig Constantine. \U0001f44b\n\n\n\nIn the Movers Mindset podcast, I talk with movement enthusiasts to learn who they are, what they do, and why they do it. I'm interested in the nature and philosophy of movement and in exploring themes like independence, self-direction, and human excellence. My interests color each conversation and provide some structure to Movers Mindset. But since I like to take the scenic route, every conversation ends up going somewhere unique.\n\n\n\nThe purpose of Movers Mindset is to create and share great conversations with movement enthusiasts. Each conversation feeds my insatiable curiosity, but I share them to turn on a light for someone else, to inspire them, or to give them their next question.\n\n\n\nI appreciate your time and attention, and I don\u2019t take it for granted.\n\n\n\n--- Thank you!\n\n\n\nMy personal mission is creating better conversations to spread understanding and compassion. And Movers Mindset is one of the things I do in service of my mission. Drop by constantine.name for my weekly email, my other podcasts, writing and more.\n\n\n\nThe Movers Mindset project grew from conversations I started having as part of my personal journey rediscovering movement. The project started late in 2015, and it was initially simply a web site that shared others\u2019 writing. The project grew, and in 2017 I started the podcast. I\u2019ve worked extremely hard, but none of this would have been possible without so much help from so many people.\n\n\n\nThanks for listening!
