飛躍道運動起源於二十世紀的法國，初時為軍事障礙訓練的方法，名為Les Parcours。第一次印度支那戰爭(First Indochina War)後，David Belle在法國把這套訓練方式傳授給朋友並組成團隊Yamakasi，意指Strong Man, Strong Spirit。Yamakasi以持之以恆、正面心態和高強度的訓練，達致強健身心靈的效果，而訓練中更加柔合各種武術、體操等技巧。

 

對比世界各地，例如同為亞洲地區的新加坡和台灣，香港飛躍道運動的發展卻比較落後。原因之一，是因為香港一直缺乏有系統的飛躍道教學和適合新手學習的場地。

 

有見及此，我們成立VaultEx，希望通過提供專業的飛躍道教學，令飛躍道運動在香港普及。亦希望宣揚飛躍道的理念和精神，鼓勵大眾以不同角度探索身邊世界，發掘自己的潛能。

 

VaultEx的命名亦由此而起 :

“Vault” – Vaulting 越過，基本飛躍道動作元素

“Ex” – Explore 探索

Parkour originates as a military obstacle training method in France in the 20th century. After the First Indochina War, David Belle formed the team Yamakasi, meaning Strong Man, Strong Spirit, in France with his friends and the training method was passed onto its members. Yamakasi promotes strong body and mind  through rigorous and perseverant physical training with a positive mindset, with the training incorporating elements from martial arts and gymnastics.

​

In Hong Kong, the development of Parkour has been lagging behind compared to other Asian countries due to the lack of systematic coaching programs and venues for beginners to practice the sport safely.

​

With this in mind, VaultEx was founded to promote Parkour in Hong Kong through professional coaching. We hope to encourage the public to explore the world  and their potential through the lens of Parkour, also its philosophy and spirit.

​

The name VaultEx thus means:

"Vault" – Vaulting, a basic Parkour move used to overcome obstacles.

"Ex" – Explore.
