Kyle’s Personal Connection with Parkour: Where Passion Meets Creativity
Kyle’s journey with parkour began when he discovered athlete montages in the early 2000s while seeking inspiration for martial arts tricks. He quickly fell in love with the creativity of freerunning and the practical aspects of parkour. Self-taught and motivated by the desire to push his limits, Kyle learned parkour at local open gyms, mastering skills in foam pits and on mats before taking them outside to grass and concrete.
For Kyle, parkour isn’t just about movement; it’s about creativity, self-expression, and understanding what’s physically possible. His connection to parkour remains strong because he sees movement as a key to longevity and takes delight in sharing this passion with others, celebrating the wins of students and clients alike.

From Athlete to Editor: How Parkour Shaped Kyle’s Approach to Video Editing
Kyle’s journey into video editing started with creating his own montages, drawing inspiration from other parkour videos. Over time, he honed his skills, studying different filming angles, editing styles, and the importance of matching movements to high-energy music. He learned that a well-edited video goes beyond simple cuts and transitions—it tells a story and captures the beauty of movement.
One standout project was the Midwest Tour with Eric Wolff, where Kyle hired a professional videographer to document their travels from St. Louis to Chicago and beyond. As the project manager, Kyle edited the four-episode series for the Flow Community channel, an experience that deepened his understanding of video storytelling and further fueled his passion for editing.
Kyle’s Expertise: A Journey of Self-Taught Skills and Professional Growth
Kyle’s editing journey began with Windows Movie Maker, evolving into a professional career as he taught himself Adobe Premiere Pro. He refined his skills through tutorials and hands-on experience, starting with parkour videos and eventually expanding into real estate videography, event promotions, and content creation for YouTube channels.
His portfolio includes collaborations with brands like Lifeproof, Skora, Olloclip, and WFPF, as well as notable projects such as Yurbuds, where he performed parkour tricks at trade shows in front of investors and consumers. Today, Kyle serves as a YouTube Talent Manager for Sun and Sky Entertainment, where he creates and optimizes content for multiple YouTube channels.

Kyle’s versatility as an editor means he can handle a wide range of video needs, from vlogs, podcasts, and product reviews to social media content, event promotions, and advertisements. He offers voiceovers, audio enhancements, motion graphics, special effects, text animations, and professional intros, alongside creating marketing assets like thumbnails and channel optimization strategies.
For parkour gym owners, Kyle’s understanding of the sport ensures your videos will capture the energy and spirit of parkour in a way that resonates with your audience and enhances your brand.
