WORKSHOPS

The art of running is to be found in the process – in the act itself. The beauty of this art is that it can be recreated in every step. The past doesn’t matter, it’s the next step that counts…

THE ART OF RUNNING WORKSHOPS

Learn to run efficiently, effectively and enjoyably at one of Malcolm Balk's ART OF RUNNING workshops!

We all think we know how to run. After all, it's as natural as putting one foot in front of the other. Too often, though, an activity which should be enjoyable and fulfilling instead leads to frustration and injury.

'Art of Running' workshops are based on the proven principles of the Alexander Technique, which encourage good use of the body and greater awareness of the way it functions, Malcolm Balk is a Level 4 athletics coach, certified Pose Method instructor and a world expert on Alexander Technique and running. He shows how to achieve and maintain fitness without injury and overcome self-imposed limitations to successful running.

These practical workshops are ideal for runners of all ages and levels of fitness and experience. Malcolm uses video analysis for 'before and after' study.

SOME COMMENTS FROM THE FALL WORKSHOP IN VANCOUVER:

“Working with Malcolm really helped me focus on running smarter not just harder. After my time with Malcolm I finally hit my time goal on the next 1/2 marathon I ran. I feel lighter and more efficient in my running - I highly recommend beginners and seasoned runners to give this running workshop a try.”

Talitha Johnston, JCC Fitness and Lifestyles Coordinator.

Great, fun workshop. My running gait is now much more stable and this has helped me to substantially reduce my running injuries. Highly recommended!

Dr Chris Lammerse, MD

"After years of dissatisfaction with my running technique, Malcolm has shown me simple and effective techniques to allow for an effortless and very satisfying running experience. I have seen increases in my speed and endurance, and feel less tired after each running session. I've never enjoyed running so much!"

Andrew Davis, Owner of Total Defense Martial Arts Academy in Delta, B.C.
