Innovative and Effortless Approach to Running
ChiRunning is an innovative and effortless approach to running
that
combines the power and flow of running with the ease, core-based
strength and balance of T’ai Chi. ChiWalking draws from the same
theoretical foundations to create a fluid yet strong walking approach
that also can serve as a holistic, personal discipline for an overall
healthy life style.
ChiRunning and ChiWalking Facilitate Energy Efficiency
Both ChiRunning and ChiWalking facilitate energy efficiency and cooperation with nature and result in forms of motion that greatly reduce the likelihood of injury.
Valuable for Current and “want-to-be” Runners and Walkers
ChiRunning and ChiWalking can be extremely valuable for current runners and walkers as well as for those who might like to take up running or walking. Form, endurance and speed are all directly impacted by the principles and practices of ChiRunning and ChiWalking and, with proper instruction, they can be learned in surprisingly little time. In order to make positive changes in running or walking outcomes, it is essential to make changes in the way in which the running or walking is done and that is what ChiRunning and ChiWalking instruction is all about.
