ChiRunning®: The Mindful Practice of Effortless, Injury-Free Running

For those able to run 1 mile without stopping.

Running is one of the oldest and most natural of human activities, but many of us experience it as an activity that takes a toll, causing sore muscles, knee injuries, hip pain, or shin splints. As Danny Dreyer, founder of ChiRunning, says, “It’s not running that hurts your body—it’s the way you run that does the damage.”

Come learn a revolutionary running technique that combines the inner focus of tai chi with running. Blending body alignment with relaxation, you learn to run with chi instead of depending on your leg strength, transforming running from a sport to a mindful practice.

Designed for everyone from total beginners to seasoned vets, this weekend teaches you to move with a fraction of the effort you currently use. Danny’s teaching style makes the ChiRunning experience fun and easy to grasp. Run with more energy than ever and less potential for injury, no matter how you run now.
