Undertake your full or half marathon training with healthier, more natural biomechanics so you can train safely and race up to your potential.
You’ll learn how to:
Prevent/eliminate the causes of typical runners’ injuries, including runner’s knee, shin splints, ITB Syndrome, plantar fasciitis, and hamstring problems
Run comfortably in more minimalist shoes
Use your core muscles for more efficient running that feels effortless and light
Find better balance between your right and left sides
Develop sensitivity, awareness and understanding of your body so you can adjust your form when running on your own
Run faster and enjoy it more
The workshop will include a Feldenkrais® Awareness Through Movement® lesson, a small amount of running, video analysis of elite runners, discussion, drills and techniques to use on your own, and before/after videos of the group.
