My locs won't stay in a band that well and I can't wear I head wrap and do parkour, also I'm having lots of maintaining issues with them as well it takes a very long time to get ready in the morning. Of course I feel bad about feeling that I may have to do this but I pray every day and I feel I need to learn more before I can grow my locs back after they are gone.

If you want to cut your dreads, then that would be the best thing to do. If it wasn't so, you wouldn't want to do it.

Yes but I just feel bad about getting rid of them I know locs don't mean rastafari necessarily or represent rasta ideology necessarily but I just feel like I'm a bad rasta for getting rid of them

Why wouldn't a headwrap work?

Parkour entails a lot of running jumping quick movement and lots of flips and climbs so even the tightest head wrap would not work

Then what is de problem? Yu have already convinced yoself dat yo gona cut yo hair yet yu want to get oppinions from a group of people whe cherish their natural hair. Why? Yu want RASTA people to approve hair cutting? My Lord. Yo own conscience has told yu dat yu are goin astray now by cuting, thus yu feel guilty about de cutting yet yu want it. Maybe yu should have done what yu have dicided to do bcos some of our oppinions might increase yo guilty feeling. I would not cut, but yu do what yu want.
