Ms. Namita Nayyar:
Tell us about your project “See & Do”. How do you wish to inspire more and more people through this initiative?
Ms. Julie Angel:
See&Do is an online project that encourages, promotes and teaches women to be happy and healthy by having a strong body and a strong mind. The three pillars of See&Do are to inspire, empower and connect women. I regularly post images of women of all ages and abilities moving outside, being brave and facing their fears as a way to normalize these kinds of activities and show that we can all strive towards being stronger, mentally and physically. Sometimes we need to “See it to be it”. The more people ‘see’, the more they will want to ‘do’, and realize that outdoor training like Parkour or MovNat are something that could be for them. If people see someone like themselves doing an activity then it confirms to them that they too could start to learn it.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
In 2011, you completed the World’s First Parkour-Focussed Ph.D. What according to you are the Top 3 Fitness Requirements that are needed to start Parkour?
Ms. Julie Angel:
The mindset is more important than any physical attributes that you start with. You need to be open to trying things that you find challenging and not let your ego get in the way. Parkour reveals to you who you are and what you are capable of. Don’t compare yourself to others and then you will enjoy a beautiful journey of physical and mental self-improvement. It’s a long-term discipline so it doesn’t matter where you start. We are all able and everyone can do something.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
You have shot commercials and short movies for big brands like Nokia, Canon & Native Instrument. Share with us your experience of working as a videographer?
Ms. Julie Angel:
It’s always fun to do these kinds of bigger jobs as there’s a different type of pressure than the self-initiated and independent ones, but ultimately it’s always a team effort. Nobody makes anything on their own, even if you are doing pretty much all of the roles. When people are professional it’s always a good experience.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
What do you wish to say about the website Womenfitness.net and message for its visitors?
Ms. Julie Angel:
I believe in the saying ‘monkey see monkey do’, so it’s great to see projects like the WomenFitness website with so many role models and inspiring stories. My message is to be brave, try things and to share your stories with others.
