Yoga for Runners
Tuesday's @ 7:30pm
Starting 1/8/18 at our Brookline Village location
Yoga for Runners will be an-hour long class with a focus on 3 areas – flexibility, balance, and strength – to help you race smarter and faster. This class will target the lower body, areas that are most impacted by running, such as hamstrings, hips, and IT bands. The goal of this class is to address muscle imbalances, help to avoid injuries, and overall help to make you stronger. This is an all-levels class and non-runners are welcome to join as well.
I’m both a runner and a yogi. I started doing yoga over 10 years ago when I was looking for a compliment to running. I’ve been a runner since I was 13 and as I have gotten older, I realized I needed to do something that also provided strengthening and flexibility. My practice has evolved over the last decade and led to me to do my 200 hour teacher training at JP Centre Yoga in 2017. In terms of my running career, I have run four marathons including Chicago, Minneapolis, New York, and Boston with plans to do London this upcoming spring. I also have the benefit of bringing my day job into my yoga teaching. I work as a Nurse Practitioner and have been in Orthopedics for the last 10 years, first as a nurse and now as a Nurse Practitioner. I have a deeper understanding of anatomy and how injuries can impact body mechanics.
I love this gym! I belong to the Cleveland Circle location. It's a very welcoming environment, and the staff are friendly and helpful. It's super clean and has tons of fun class options and weights/machines. The Zumba class is my favorite so far. I'm very glad I joined.
I’ve been coming here for over two years and have been really happy with my overall experience. The gym has all the machines and equipment I need and the layout of the space makes transitioning between workouts seamless. It’s also super close to my work and home, which makes working out multiple times per week really easy!
Great athletic club! Offers everything I need for my lunch time work outs; free weights, dumbbells, universal machines, treadmills, the yoga room for stretching and core workouts. Love that you can sign up for a yoga class and others without any additional fees. Very clean & the support staff are awesome! Looking forward to the rest of 2019 with you guys.
