This 4-week Yoga for Runners series is designed to support strength, mobility, balance, and recovery—helping you run more efficiently, reduce injury risk, and move with greater ease.
Each week focuses on a key area of the body used in running, working both primary and supporting muscles through a blend of Hatha (strength and stability) and Yin (stretch, release, and recovery) practices.
Sessions combine purposeful warm-ups, strength-led sequences, balance work, and longer-held stretches to improve joint range of motion, posture, and resilience.
We’ll place particular emphasis on hip mobility and strength, as the hips connect the core to the legs and play a crucial role in balance, drive, and running mechanics—especially when transitioning between road, trail, and uneven terrain.
Improving hip range of motion can positively affect knee, shin, ankle, and foot alignment, supporting healthier movement patterns and injury prevention.
You’ll also build core stability, back strength, and upper body awareness to support posture, arm swing, and breathing efficiency. Strong shoulders and an open chest help reduce excess movement through the torso, allowing for better rhythm, lung capacity, and running economy.
Weekly Focus:
Week 1 – Flexibility & Hips: Spine and hip mobility, internal and external rotation, and longer yin-style holds to release tight fascia and connective tissue.
Week 2 – Legs: Strength-focused standing poses to support power, endurance, and control.
Week 3 – Core, Arms & Shoulders: Stability, posture, and upper body strength to support efficient arm drive and breath.
Week 4 – Balance: Single-leg work and transitional balance to stabilise hips, pelvis, knees, and ankles.
This course is suitable for runners of all levels and is ideal if you’re looking to run stronger, recover better, and build long-term durability in both body and mind.
