In this Tuesday, June 17, 2014 photo, elderly people participate at a special parkour class at a park in south London. The unique weekly class for people over 60 called parkour, a flashy discipline usually known for its acrobatic running, climbing and gravity-defying jumps. The London parkour class is taught by two instructors who have adapted the sport’s main elements to a level that can be handled even by those over 60. The parkour instructors said everyone who takes the class fills out a health form and they are particularly careful to dissuade participants from doing too much. (AP Photo/Lefteris Pitarakis)
