Meet the Business Owner

Cameron P.

Business Owner

Recently on the cover of Health & Fitness Sports Magazine, and also in the Houston Press, Cameron Pratto is a senior coach, co-​founder and executive director of Urban Movement. He has the ADAPT Level 1, MovNat Level 2 and MovNat Combatives certifications. Cameron’s longest discipline has been with yoga and meditation. Always drawn toward pushing physical and mental limits, it always comes back to needing balance. Art Du Deplacement (Parkour & Freerunning) happened to Cameron mid-​2008. The energy and purpose he discovered after meeting and training with the founders became the catalyst for UMove. Followed by also training with and learning from the founders and leaders of the Natural Movement system, MovNat, Cameron is just waiting for the next amazing opportunity life throws at him. Until then, he travels around the US teaching movement certifications and workshops, and nurtures Urban Movement.
