What does "NAWPRO" mean?
More than just a name to identify a group, it is a way of looking at life....
Official team logo, designed by me.
We chose this name because we believe it represents who we are, not just as "traceurs" (that's what parkour practitioners are called) if not as people, to understand why we consider ourselves warriors of nature, we must first understand what it means to be a warrior.
A warrior is someone who lives for war, is someone who is in constant conflict, whether physical, mental or spiritual, we as parkour practitioners are in constant conflict, by rediscovering our inner nature, those native instincts in our being, and that as the years go by, we are formed in a society that forces us to get rid of them, limiting ourselves to monotonous routines, as if it were a great factory.
Man is born to fight, and that is how he is best defined as a born warrior and that his life from beginning to end is but a battle.
Thomas Carlyle
Our struggle is not only internal, the fact of opening the doors to our inner world, has made us more aware that we must take care of the nature around us, by abandoning the urban environment for a few hours of training, to be in contact with nature makes us see that everything is alive, even the air we breathe is different, our lungs feel full of life with every breath, that is why one of our greatest battles as natural warriors is to protect the life of this planet, living in harmony with the ecosystem we have exploited our physical potential, without resorting to gyms or artificial places to increase our performance, since who wants a gym having a whole planet?
This has made us grow as individuals and given us the physical, mental and spiritual strength to face any adversity and develop altruism, Today we live in a pyramidal society, which incites us to be better than others, to pass over them, but parkour teaches you that it is better to develop as a person, to help those who need it.
A clear example of our philosophy is the very fact that we do not compete, it is true that "parkour competitions" have been created worldwide, but in a way they are absurd, since it is impossible to determine who is better or worse, we only do it for fun, It's a way of feeling motivated as a team, after all, competitions are destructive, and it goes against the very philosophy of parkour, "to be strong to be useful", I've always thought that competitions are an unconscious way of draining our primitive instincts, that thirst to go hunting, to find food, to get something at the end of the day....
As man was building great empires over time, he was repressing those instincts that kept him alive until then, eager to drain that burden, he created the skills to feel the glory of those days, but that has only created conflict from that moment on.
