How to Do a Standing Cat Leap

Parkour is a method that trains you to move using nothing other than your own power when walking, running, climbing or jumping. A standing cat leap is a parkour move used to scale an obstacle. To perform a standing cat leap, you leap up and grasp the top of a wall to pull yourself up, much as a cat would.

Difficulty: Moderate

Instructions

1. Start by attempting to scale a wall that's 2 or 3 feet taller than you are.

2. Get a running start. The higher the wall you're trying to top, the more important it is to build some momentum.

3. Leap upward and reach for the top of the wall with both hands.

4. Place one foot as high up the wall as you can, propelling yourself higher. Use the other foot to climb the wall.

5. Move quickly. The faster you're moving, the higher you're able to climb using the standing cat leap.

Tips & Warnings

• Parkour is an art form much like rock climbing. The more you train your mind and body, the better you'll be at performing the standing cat leap.
