Chi technique reminders for effortless running

The following reminders are for those of you who I recently met to teach the Chi Running technique:


  • Set yourself up, align the body.
  • Balance your feet and remember for those of you who are prone to splaying correct the problem as shown to you.
  • Stretch the spine and gently stretch the back of the neck and your chin will tilt down ensuring you're looking ahead.
  • Engage your core......check for your shoelaces.
  • Focus on the feet and lean from your ankles.
  • Arms at 90 degree angle and remember to swing to the rear.
  • Look ahead and practice your yi chi.


Remember to take your time setting yourself up and at any stage if you feel you've come out of your posture, just stop, set yourself up again, lean from the ankles and fall forward.


Enjoy your effortless running and remember its energy efficient and injury free the chi way!
