Run with Ease – Run for Your Life
The more we run, (or the older we get while we run!), the more we need to look after both the motor and the machine – that’s us and our brains and our bodies.
Coaches and trainers are now saying that movement versatility and coordination are more important for good running than drills and regimentation. (See link to article: http://balancedrunner.co.uk/)
Knowing how to adapt and simplify the way we run leads to greater efficiency, less risk of injury, and a rediscovery of the simple youthful joy that running holds for us.
That’s the sort of experience we provide with these “runshops” in the Run for Your Life series.
The next ones are coming up:
Exploring Running Form (with Rupert Watson, Feldenkrais runner and practitioner)– Sunday, 8th June
Intelligent Movement for Runners (with Femke Koene, Exercise Kinesiologist)– Sunday, 15th June
The sessions work together, but are separated in time for better absorption of the material. Both are at Newtown Park, from 10-12 on their respective Sundays.
Cost is $55 for both; or $30 for one, if that’s all you can manage right now.
To book email Rupert at watson@slingshot.co.nz
Please pass on to friends – we seem to be leaving publicity a bit late this time!
