Right To Play is lucky enough to call Sébastien Foucan, the founder of free running and co-creator of parkour, an Ambassador.

Freerunning is the result of 20 years of practice and thinking, as Sébastien developed his skills though childhood play. No matter how you view the discipline of freerunning, be it as an art form or a way of life, it is growing all around the world and Sébastien is a big part of that reason.


Originally from France Sébastien has been involved in several projects around the world and does not limit himself to just one discipline. His early television appearances include ‘Jump London’ and ‘Jump Britain’, the seminal documentaries that introduced freerunning to the UK. In 2006 he starred as Bond villain Mollaka in ‘Casino Royale’ and toured the world as a lead performer on Madonna’s ‘Confessions’ tour. Sébastien can soon be seen on the big screen yet again in Twist, and in your homes as he takes to his skates with Dancing On Ice.  

Sébastien has been a Right To Play Ambassador since 2007, and has often travelled long distances to support Right To Play. He has taken part in numerous Right To Play events including a Celebrity Sports Day, our World Cup Challenge and as the key note speaker for the Chelsea Academy.
