- Posture, Alignment and Relaxation
- T’ai Chi Principles

The Workshops and Instruction are designed for both beginner and experienced runners and walkers. The time spent will not involve continuous activity. Each section will begin with an explanation of the particular element (the what, why and how), followed by actual practice. Running or walking will involve very short distances in the form of a drill to work on form rather than endurance. The goal is that by the end of the day, each individual will be able to incorporate the different elements into their running or walking form and have the tools to improve.
Separate advanced workshops may be setup to include hills and videotaping. Please contact me if you have interest either as an individual or as a group.
