King St. Metro Plaza Old Town - Alexandria, VA

King St. Metro Plaza is a simple spot conviniently placed across the street from the King St Metro (hence the appropriate naming convention.) It's a great place for new traceurs to get a grip on the basics. It has a variety of railing and handicap ramp area to practice your vaults - they are all around 3'8" tall (midwaist for the average traceur!) It has a nice step system of bricks surrounded by mulch which lend themselves very well to practicing low to high and high to low precision jumps.Although the area is enclosed by office buildings and restaurants, Security has never been an issue. After years of training in this area I have yet to come across an officer asking me to move on. Because of it's proximity to the Metro and it's simple but closely gathered obstacles, I recommend this spot to young budding traceurs wishing to learn the basics in a relateively safe place!
