Aleksander ‚Sandi‘ Banovic
Aleksandar ‘Sandi’ Banovic has been training for 13 years and started to coach around 8 years ago, all around Slovenia. He is a co-founder of Parkour Slovenija, a non profit organisation. And he is running the local non profit organisation ‚Sportno Drustvo Gibanje Postojna‘ located in his hometown Postojna. Last year Sandi wanted to level up his work and knowledge, so he accepted the invitation from Access Parkour and went there to work as full time Parkour coach. One of his training philosophies is to train with purpose, for life, with fun and not just for fun. As father of 5 children and 40 years old he also started to develop certain views: how to make parkour useful on different areas of life, how to help others and how to be more ready for chaotic circumstances of life.
Ludwig Hefele
Ludwig is 26 years old and lives in Munich. He trains and teaches Parkour as a Coach for about nine years. Currently his research focuses on hand balancing, floor acrobatics and circus arts. In these fields he found various teachers and sources of inspirations in Nil Teisner, Emmet Louis, Kenan Dinkelmann, Tom Weksler, Marcello Palozzo and others. In his workshops Ludwig wants to share his knowledge and expirience in these disciplines to also get a fresh perspective on the Parkour practice.
Next to his practical research and training, he also studies the theoretical background of movement through the lense of sport science.
