RunnersYogaLogoRUNNER'S YOGA: The complete 30-minute home practice program.

Runner’s Yoga is an exciting new program that includes a proprietary 30-minute yoga routine, breathing techniques, and unique training tools, all specifically designed to address the biggest challenge faced by runners and others who use running in their training: injuries.

(Soon available as a downloadable package!)

The Runner's Yoga Program is simple yet comprehensive, and above all, practical, because we know the demands that a busy schedule can place on you. But we also know how much runners benefit from yoga.

So, after years of experimenting and research, we have taken the best of yoga and fitness theory and fused them into a total program that can change your running forever.

Runner's Yoga Axiom #1: TRY 'RUNNING NAKED': Take Off Your iPod, Your Heart Monitor, Your Watch, And Tune Into The Most Advanced Biofeedback Machine Ever Designed - The Human Body!


The foundation of Runner’s Yoga
 is our dynamic 30-minute yoga routine designed for runners’ bodies - a flowing series of postures done to a rhythmic beat.

We teach you this routine in a half-day workshop, carefully breaking down each posture with detailed variations for tight and injured bodies. And we send you home with the tools you need (including an audio CD of the routine, illustration sheet, and personal workout plan) to continue to practice on your own.

 

"Quite simply, one of the best workshops I have ever taken. It has dramatically changed the way I run.
I can't recommend it highly enough."
Deb Suzuki, Registered Kinesiologist, Mother of five, Marathoner

The whole routine requires minimal space and no props so you’ll be able to do it almost anywhere. And because it’s only 30 minutes long, you’ll find it much easier to fit into your schedule. (Studies indicate that an exercise routine that can be done in less than 30 minutes will be done much more frequently.)

But it’s not just the Runner’s Yoga routine you'll learn. We also teach you a powerful breathing technique that can literally change the way you run; how to use an amazing self-massage tool like the pros to prevent injuries and accelerate healing; plus special tips such as how to Run NakedTM, how to Move Into 4-Wheel Drive, and how to design a realistic program you can stick with over the long term.

 

 

The Runner’s Yoga Program will melt away the structural imbalances caused by running's one-dimensional nature. It will improve your focus and core fitness. And it will lessen the likelihood of injury by enhancing your body’s ability to withstand the tremendous impact of each leg striking the ground 500 to 1,000 times per mile. (See "Impact")

Whether you run for fun, competitively, or as part of your training for other sports, the Runner's Yoga Program will rebalance your body and help you run in a pain-free, focused zone, improving your performance and enjoyment of running.

Safe, detailed, and above all practical, at Runner's Yoga we give you the science, we give you the techniques, and we give you the tools to practice on your own. Your running will never be the same. We guarantee it!*

See you out there!

RUNNER'S INFO

 

 

IMPACT!

"... the runner lands on each leg 500 to 1,000 times per mile. On a typical 5-mile run, each leg will land 2,500 to 5,000 times.

A runner who covers 5 miles 5 days per week, therefore, will land on each leg 650,000 to 1,300,000 times in a year. And that's just someone covering 25 miles a week.

A runner training for a marathon who's regularly putting in training of 50 miles a week can easily strike the ground well over 2 million times per leg each year."

Dagny Scott Barrios

 

 

RUNNING INJURIES

According to the American Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R) almost 70% runners will be injured.

Among the most common running-elated injuries seen by PM&R physicians are:

  • Runner’s Knee

  • Iliotibial Band Syndrome

  • Shin Splints

  • Achilles Tendonitis

  • Heel Pain (Heel Spurs and Plantar Fasciitis)

This reflects a study carried out at the University of British Columbia in 2002 that found almost 80% of the injuries sustained by runners occur from the knee down.
