Don’t Miss out on our Yoga for Runners Clinic

Yoga for Runners clinic will be held on Saturday, Aug. 1 at The Balance Workout at 5768 Paradise Drive, Suite J, Corte Madera from 1-4pm.

About the instructor: 
Danielle is a Certified Anusara Yoga Instructor and Intuitive Wellness Coach.  Along with her years of experience as a yoga instructor, Danielle’s personal experience with running helps in teaching her students the many benefits of yoga for runners, including flexibility , injury prevention, better performance, lung capacity, mental focus, longevity, endurance and strength.

Yoga and running do not need to be in opposition, so if you thought you had to choose between the track and the mat, think again. The pain and discomfort most runners feel is not from the running in and of itself, but from the imbalances that running reinforces.

Through our yoga practice we can cultivate:
* improved breath connection to increase endurance and receptivity
* strong and stable core for centered movement
* firm foundation to support proper alignment and extension
* balanced strength throughout the upper and lower body
* compassionate conditioning through seated and restorative postures

Bring your running shoes – the workshop will begin with a short jog so that we can engage the muscles and form we apply during running. This will be followed by a fun practice empowering the entire body to become more integrated, receptive and flexible.


When:  Saturday, August 1, 2009, 1-4:00p.m.
