Notes

Transform your running into a safe and mindful practice that can help you move with balance, efficiency, strength and joy. This Full Day workshop will provide you with all the tools you need to begin to feel what it is like to be a ChiRunner. Please contact me for questions.

Workshop Description

In this workshop you will learn the basic components of the Chi Running technique.

We will be guiding you through many exercises and drills designed to leave you with a clear sense of what the Chi Running technique feels like in your body. We will not be doing lots of running (contrary to what you might imagine), so no matter what condition you're in, have no fear. We will spend the day alternating between demonstrations, fun exercises and technique drills... the nature of the day will be relaxed, full, and inspiring.
