Yoga for Runners

Come and join us for our monthly dose of yoga with a running twist - hosted by our friends at Up & Running Edinburgh.  There’s (apparently) something in the air the day before our gathering, so we’ll follow that theme with some heart-opening stuff… though without the ‘woo woo’ and all focussed on using it for good form and breath on these bracing late-Winter runs.

What can you expect?

• Firstly, a very warm welcome 😊
• Gentle, yet fun and energising movement designed specifically for those of who like to run, jog or shuffle
• A workshop of four parts:

1. Breathwork, grounding and mobilising yoga to get us warmed up for...
2. A short test run/jog/shuffle round the West End
3. Post-run stretching and relaxation
4. ⁠Restoration and replenishment (aka coffee and tasty treats)

• Great tunes (never any ‘yoga music!)
• Absolute beginners absolutely welcome... as I often say, if I had £1 for every time I heard the words 'I'm not flexible enough for yoga' from runners then I'd be doing pretty well 😊
• 15% discount on all items in Up & Running on the day 

What will be provided?

• Yoga mats, though please feel free to bring your own if you prefer
• A post-session pastry/bake, washed down with...
• A barista-crafted coffee (or tea) of your choice

A few requirements before the session...

• Please let me know if you have any significant injuries
• Dress comfortably – something you can move comfortably in, with suitable outdoor layers for the run
• Remember to bring your running shoes – the run will be short, and whilst the yoga is barefooted I don’t recommend that for running round the West End 😉

We're really looking forward to welcoming you all.   Please give us a shout if you have any questions in the meantime.
