Welcome spring with mindful movement and conditioning. This one-hour, midday class combines running fundaments with yoga’s restorative qualities to help you ease into a running routine with confidence. Drawing on the instructor’s experience as a yoga teacher and running coach, each session will start with dynamic warm-up exercises, followed by a progressive sequence of walks/jogs around the local park and adjacent Rock Creek Park. Each class will conclude with a cool-down featuring gentle yoga postures designed to support mobility and ease tension. The class is perfect for anyone seeking to learn a more mindful approach to running that prioritizes proper conditioning and active recovery.
*NOTE: This is a series of five Wednesday classes. Class is held inside the Meadowbrook Local Park Activity Building located on park grounds. Weather permitting, warm-ups and jogs will take place outdoors, and the class will have access to the Activity Building for yoga. Please dress in layers appropriate for both movement and weather, including running shoes. Please bring a yoga mat for the cool-down and a filled water bottle. All classes in the series are included in one registration fee. Registration is required. No walk-ins will be accepted.
