Parkour Earth has reluctantly accepted the resignations of Adrienne Toumayan (Deputy CEO) and Stephen Sampson (Independent Chair).

The team wants to thank Adrienne for her work in leading and supporting our National Federation Members, competition research project, strategic planning, social media, and other key tasks. Adrienne hopes to focus her efforts more on the women’s parkour movement in the United States where we know she will be a valuable voice.

Stephen’s professional circumstances are changing with additional management responsibilities and would like to dedicate more time to his family. Stephen has been pivotal in steering the Board toward our focus on developing a connected and empowered parkour community, and we’re grateful for his leadership these last three years.

A formal recruitment process for the position of Independent Chair will follow this announcement.

In the interim, the Board has appointed Stuart McInnes, Transitional and Founding Independent Chair of Parkour Earth from 2017-2019, as Interim Chair from May 1st until such time as a new Independent Chair is appointed.
