Yoga For Runners

A practice to reconnect with the feet. Gaining sensation and grounding from the feet to initiate stability at the hips.

This taster gives you an insight to the way we incorporate self massage & yoga techniques to help our runners get more from their running. Connection of the big toe on the ground is an intrinsic part of efficient running gait. This practice will reduce tension at both the feet & the hips, to improve sensation & movement at the feet to help runners ground, stabilise and power off as they run.

Sam Edwards: Founder CORE yoga As a student of Jason Crandell (ERYT 500hrs), Sam teaches yoga with the same approach as she follows in her personal practice. An evenly paced vinyasa flow yoga that incorporates mindfulness & technical precision. A satisfying mélange of power & yin to help balance body, mind & soul from the everyday stresses of life & training. Sam loves to run, swim and cycle and has found her yoga practice instrumental in her ability to complete many races over the last few years; including her most recent Ironman achievement. She uses her experience as an endurance athlete & yogini to help her students to develop proprioception; to improve their functional strength, flexibility & mobility through conscious movement & breath. Sam is consistently developing her knowledge and understanding of both yoga & the human body through her trainings since 2012 (200hrs Yoga London; 100hrs Advanced Anatomy Yoga London; 200hrs Yoga for Sports YSS; 300hrs Jason Crandell Advanced Teacher Training; 40 hours Yin & Meditation Sarah Lo) and through other developmental courses working with internationally recognised teachers including Tom Myers, David Svensson & Jill Miller. Before Yoga become her main focus Sam also trained with Triathlon England as a Level 2 Coach & with FASTER as a PT & Functional Performance & Running Coach
