Using yoga to help with running - Part 1: The warm up

We all had a lot of fun exploring how yoga can help us as runners during our run meet last night.  As you can see from the pictures, our fearless team learned how to warm up muscles and joints using yoga technique. 

Did you know that you can modify downward dog to open the hip joint as well? This is important for those of us with tight hips, as your hip flexor is a key running muscle.  Here we see Coach Kelly demonstrating this move.   



If you're tired of the same old boring pre-run warm-ups join us for our fun fall feature on how yoga can help us become better runners with targeted warm-ups, stability drills, strengthening moves and cool down stretches. 

Our coaches are here to make running fun and accessible to all the women who want to participate.   Come and join us Wednesday evenings, 6pm at Ramsden Park.
